This cable belongs underwater. It will be safer from the elements: lightening, high winds, hurricanes. etc. It also protects our best asset: the view.

The bridge to support the wires is already there-use it!

Lets be smart and put the cable underwater, to save the view and better protect boat traffic, along with better consistent electrical supply.

This is a chance to imporve the beauty of one of our fabulous rivers. Put the power line under water.

Big and ugly is not the solution to the problem. Let's try and resolve with the flavor of the river, quiet, quaint and tasteful.

Putting the upgraded transmission lines underwater seems like the best way to go.

I hope Dominion Power will wisely choose to go the underwater route.

The VMRC hearing on the permit application will be Tuesday 7/28 9:30am. The meeting will be held at 2600 Washington Ave, Newport News VA, 4th Floor. Contact your commission members here and tell them to oppose this project. http://mrc.virginia.gov/commissionboard.shtm

I strongly object to the proposed installation of new power lines across the Rapoahannock River.

Dominion Power is taking the easy way out (towers vs. underwater cable) and their lack of transparency is on this issue is deplorable! Just another example of arrogance on Dominion Power's part!
