Cove Point Expansion

Dominion has received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to increase the Cove Point LNG Terminal's daily output capacity. The expansion project will add two storage tanks, bringing the total number at the site to seven.

In addition, the expansion project will add two electric generator units to the existing three units. Dominion has received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to begin construction activities on expansion facilities at Cove Point.

Dominion Cove Point also is expanding its pipeline in Maryland to deliver more natural gas to interstate pipeline connections in Virginia.

Dominion Transmission is building four new pipelines in West Virginia and Pennsylvania, as well as two new compressor stations in Pennsylvania to move natural gas to customers throughout the Northeast.

These pipeline projects are key to delivering new gas supplies to where they are needed in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. The Maryland project will bring more winter supplies to the Mid-Atlantic region, and the Pennsylvania projects will allow supplies to be stored in the summer and moved to the Northeast for use during the winter.
