Front Cover: The natural gas-fired Bear Garden Power Station in
Central Virginia entered service in May 2011 and can power about
148,000 homes and businesses.
Page 4: Top: The Appalachian Gateway project will include 110
miles of pipeline and four compressor stations and is expected to
begin operations in September 2012. Middle: Construction on the
Natrium processing and fractionation plant is under way in Marshall
County, W.Va. The first phase is expected to cost $500 million and
come online by the end of 2012. Strategically situated on the Ohio
River, gas liquids processed there may be transported via rail,
barge, truck or pipeline. Bottom: Dominion expects the Virginia City
Hybrid Energy Center to open for business in summer 2012 and
generate electricity for 146,000 homes and businesses.
Page 5: Top: Construction has begun to rebuild the vital,
500-kilovolt Mount Storm-to-Doubs transmission line that serves
Northern Virginia. The rebuilt line would increase capacity by two-
thirds and be completed in 2015. Middle: The Allegheny Storage
project would increase storage capacity for Dominion, which
already operates the nation’s largest natural gas storage system.
The project is targeted for completion in 2014. Bottom: This spring,
we expect to begin constructing the 1,300-megawatt, gas-fired
combined-cycle facility in Warren County, Va., that should enter
service by the end of 2014. The generating facility would help
Dominion Virginia Power meet demand growth, projected by PJM
Interconnection to be 4,000 megawatts by 2022.
Page 8: About 7,000 line, patrol and support personnel, including
3,100 mutual aid and tree crews from more than 20 different utilities
and contract companies, joined an effort to restore power to more
than 1.2 million customers in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene.
Page 13: Throughout its 30-year history, our hallmark energy-
assistance program, EnergyShare, has distributed $52 million to
help more than a half-million of our most vulnerable citizens remain
comfortable in their homes during the summer and winter months.
Page 14: Thirty Dominion employee volunteers donated their
time to trim trees and rebuild a walkway, among other things, at
Williams Wharf Landing in Mathews County, Va. In 2011, employees
volunteered about 160,000 hours of their time to various causes.
Page 17: Left: Shelby L. Vessels is a groundsman for Dominion Virginia
Power based in the Richmond, Va.-area’s Midlothian District. Shown
with Kevin F. Henderson, a Dominion lineman, Vessels served in the
Virginia Air National Guard before coming to Dominion. Top right:
W. Ryan Crabtree, a Marine, is supervisor of fossil & hydro operations
and maintenance at Chesterfield Power Station. Bottom right: Robert
D. Sharpe is an engineer at Chesterfield Power Station. He also served
in the U.S. Marine Corps prior to joining the company. Vessels, Sharpe
and Crabtree work in jobs for which there is a critical need. All three
exemplify the candidates that Dominion is seeking through the Troops
to Energy Jobs program — those who are safety-conscious, disciplined
and civic-minded.
