At Dominion Energy, we continually review and analyze our energy infrastructure to provide safe, reliable, and affordable electricity to the communities we serve. In spring 2024, we are installing dual system protection and communication fiber on an existing electric transmission line north of I-264 between our Lynnhaven and Virginia Beach substations located in the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia. This project will improve our communications between substations and provide the necessary resiliency, dependability, and security to operate and monitor the bulk power system.
In early 2023, we began preliminary field work on foot or in vehicles in and around the right of way. Our field activities included evaluating the right of way for potential unauthorized encroachments. Our easement rights state that the entire width of the right of way is to be clear of structures, such as sheds, decks, swimming pools, and playground equipment, and certain types of vegetation (including all trees). This is to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the line, and to protect the community and our crews from energized power lines. To learn about how we maintain property rights and a safe right of way, please visit DominionEnergy.com/RightOfWay.
