Why is this project needed?

The structures along this 22-mile corridor have been in service for more than five decades and need replacing to maintain reliable electric service.

What are the next steps I should be aware of?

Our project team will focus on public outreach in early spring 2024 to ensure all interested community members are aware of the project and have an opportunity to share feedback with our team as we continue the planning process. We intend to file an application with the SCC in summer 2024. We hope to see you at future public meetings so we can hear what matters most to you.

Who has oversight and approval over this project?

The SCC is the regulatory body with jurisdiction over transmission lines at or above 138 kilovolts (kV). Since this project is proposing to rebuild an existing 230 kV transmission line, it meets the criteria to be reviewed by the SCC. Dominion Energy intends to file an application in early summer 2024.

Although the SCC is the primary agency reviewing and ultimately approving the project, there may be additional permits needed from local, state, and federal agencies.

Does my feedback matter and how can I share it with Dominion Energy?

We want to hear your feedback. The purpose of our public engagement is to share, listen and learn from our community members. The SCC also considers public input in its review process. There are multiple ways to share your feedback with our team:

  • Contact us by email at powerline@dominionenergy.com or by phone at 888-291-0190.
  • Attend our community meetings
  • Invite us to your community or property

I’m unable to attend the open house meetings. Are there other opportunities for a meeting?

Interested community members are welcome to request a separate meeting with our team. Whether you have a scheduling conflict during the community meeting dates, would like to discuss your property specifically, or would like to continue a discussion with our team following a community meeting, we are available for additional meetings by request.
