Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan (ESCP)

DOMINION’s Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan (ESCP)

"includes measures that would avoid 

or minimize environmental impacts resulting 

from construction and operation of the Project."

Standard pipeline installation requires a series of specific activities 

comprising a linear construction sequence. 

Dominion would : 

construct,

restore, 

maintain the proposed Project in accordance 

with its Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan (ESCP). 

Dominion's ESCP includes measures that would

avoid or minimize environmental impacts resulting 

from construction and operation of the Project, including:

                              installation of erosion control devices

                              topsoil segregation;

                              specialized construction methods 

                                                (e.g., residential areas);

                              wetlands crossing methods

                              waterbody crossing methods

                              revegetation specifications

                               restoration specifications

                               post-construction maintenance requirements.

Dominion's ESCP is based upon our protocols and procedures 

outlined in FERC'S :

       Upland Erosion Control, Revegetation, and Maintenance Plan 

       Wetland and Waterbody Construction and Mitigation Procedures 

In addition to other state and local requirements. Dominion has, however, proposed a modification to section 4.F.1 of our Plan for specific areas along the proposed right-of-ways.
