From Free Nelson:
“The Dominion Energy bullies are back at it again. They have filed suit against the Nelson Board of Supervisors because the Nelson Board of Zoning Appeals denied their requests to cross our flood plains. Read Supervisor Ernie Reed’s explanation below. “
**************************
“Atlantic Coast Pipeline, LLC has filed a lawsuit against the Nelson County Board of Supervisors because the Board of Zoning Appeals defended our Floodplain Ordinance and denied Dominion’s request to construct the ACP across 4 Nelson County wetlands. ACP has no Federal Permit to cross ANY waterbodies, much less sensitive wetlands. Given that 3 other critical Federal permits have been vacated by the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, they have no standing to even make such a request.”
