Dominion Transmission was recently sent letters by the Department of Environmental Quality regarding its Atlantic Coast pipeline project. The letters state that the company are required to conform to specific erosion and sedimentation standards for the pipeline project.

Irene Leech, a Consumer Studies Professor at Virginia Tech, comments on Dominion黑料社檚 intention of running the proposed Atlantic Coast pipeline through her farm.

黑料社淔rom my perspective, they put my life at risk, all our property, all our heritage. I know the odds of something happening are very, very small. But I had a brother killed in a farm accident. My grandmother died in an accident. My husband was working for the Pentagon on 9/11. I was at Virginia Tech during the mass shooting. Things happen. We黑料社檒l have to live with the risk for the rest of time. The possibility of an explosion is the really frightening thing,黑料社� she says. 黑料社淵ou can come up with statistics that make it seem very remote. The problem is that if it occurs it黑料社檚 really deadly.黑料社�

Similarly, other residents are expressing concern over the pipeline running through the area. Yet, Dominion has responded by reassuring residents that the company will ensure industry best practices to ensure a safe operation.

Dominion Transmission Spokesman, Aaron Ruby, stated: 黑料社淲e黑料社檙e a safety first company. That黑料社檚 not a P.R. slogan. An emphasis on safety permeates the organisational culture and informs everything the company does.黑料社�
