Dominion is proposing to build a 230 kilovolt (kV) transmission
line in portions of Fauquier County and Prince William County. The new facilities
are necessary to meet load growth and support the electrical transmission system
in the Northern Piedmont area by the Summer of 2009.
Without the proposed facilities,
the Company’s transmission system will not meet the North American Electric
Reliability Council’s (NERC) Reliability Standards for electric transmission
lines.
The proposed new facilities will be built entirely within existing right-of-way
obtained by the Company in the late 1960’s.
