Public participation and involvement are vital to project planning and execution. At Dominion Energy we strive to improve the physical, social, and economic well-being of the communities we serve.

Once a project need is identified, conceptual project planning and design begins. Dominion Energy consults with key stakeholders throughout the planning process to gather and incorporate feedback into design plans. Key stakeholders include local, county, and state officials, state and federal agencies, historic preservation and natural resource groups, Native American tribes, and community members.

Dominion Energy encourages all stakeholders to learn more about the Loudoun County Reliability Projects Electric Transmission Project and submit feedback. You can contact the project team by email at powerline@dominionenergy.com or telephone at 888-291-0190.
