Page 1: Top: Our 15,500 employees work around the clock to
keep the lights on and the gas flowing. During their free time, they
volunteer in their communities— lending a helping hand at soup
kitchens, cleaning up litter and building homes for those in need.
Page 6: The Morrison Compressor station in West Virginia is part of
the $575 million Appalachian Gateway project that entered service
in 2012. It helps address a critical infrastructure need in a leading
gas-producing region.
Page 7: From top to bottom: (1) The Mount Storm to Doubs
transmission line is vital to the electric grid serving our nation’s
capital. (2) The $550 million Natrium processing and fractionation
plant can transport natural gas and natural gas liquids by barge,
truck, rail or pipe. (3) Warren County, a $1.1 billion gas-fired power
station under construction in the northwestern part of Virginia,
is expected to produce enough electricity to power more than
330,000 typical homes. (4) Dominion Virginia Power has filed with
Virginia regulators for permission to construct another gas-fired
facility, Brunswick County, expected to cost $1.3 billion.
Page 11: Minorities represent about 17 percent of our workforce;
women, more than 21 percent. Dominion intends to recruit and
retain individuals who are committed to safety, excellence and
public service and fill available slots with talented people who are
representative of the communities where we do business.
Pages 12– 13: More than 14 million Americans lost power as a
result of the late June summer storms and Superstorm Sandy.
Dominion Virginia Power relied on our own crews as well as crews
from contract companies and other utilities to get the lights back
on, just as other utilities ask for Dominion Virginia Power’s —even
Dominion East Ohio’s — aid. Storms can tear things apart, but they
can also bring utilities together.
Page 14: Dominion employees volunteered 130,000 hours of
their time to support worthy causes in the communities we serve.
Whether helping elementary school children plant trees as part of
Dominion’s award-winning Project Plant It! program, or packing
lunches for children in need, or fly-fishing with one of our
nation’s wounded heroes, Dominion employees have a knack
for giving back.
Pages 18– 19: Background: A Dominion Virginia Power lineman
works to repair electrical equipment damaged in Ashland, Va.,
after a spate of summer storms disrupted service to more than
1 million Virginia Power customers. The set of storms, which
packed hurricane-force winds, knocked out power to more
Virginians than any previous non-hurricane weather event. Dominion
Virginia Power’s efforts to replace transformers and recondition
circuits are expected to improve reliability and system performance
for our 2.5 million electric utility customer accounts in Virginia and
North Carolina.
