COVID-19 snapshot - Tuesday, July 6

The Virginia Department of Health released a weekly update on July 2 from the University of Virginia that discusses the presence of the Delta variant in Virginia. The Delta variant – “the same variant that ravages India,” said the VDH – spreads two and a half times faster than previous variants. Vaccines are not quite as effective against the Delta variant, particularly in people who are not fully vaccinated. Although evidence is sparse, according to Friday’s report, early evidence suggests the Delta variant may also cause more severe illness. The report says, “As noted, the Delta variant spreads rapidly. It is the dominant variant in the United States and is likely to become the dominant variant in Virginia quickly. With the Delta variant, the UVA model projects a sustained surge in cases through the fall, causing almost 50,000 more cases in 2021 than with the current variant mix… Surges, however, are much more likely to occur, and to result in more cases, in areas with lower vaccination rates… “There is some good news, however. Virginia has been very successful in vaccinating the vulnerable senior population. Even if the Delta variant is more severe, Virginia is unlikely to repeat the numbers of hospitalizations and deaths seen in 2020.” The report includes the following key takeaways: • The Delta variant of COVID-19 makes up over

13% of sequenced cases in Virginia and is likely to increase its share quickly. • The average number of daily vaccinations continues to decline. • Although Virginia met President Joe Biden’s goal of 70% of adults vaccinated, vaccinations are not distributed evenly, and many areas of the state remain under vaccinated. The southwest and northwest regions of Virginia appear to be most vulnerable to a resurgence of COVID as the Delta variant takes hold.

Seven-day positivity average (total PCR tests vs. positive tests)

Vaccines

Hospitalizations

Virginia: 59.4% of the population have received at least one dose; 51.2% are fully vaccinated. Fauquier: 39,472 have received at least one dose (55.4%); 34,456 are fully vaccinated (48.4%). Perspective: About 71.5% of adults have been vaccinated with at least one dose. The percentage of fully vaccinated adults is 62.2%.

New cases of coronavirus

Virginia: 132 Tuesday; 681,326 to date Fauquier: 0 Tuesday; 4,789 cases to date Perspective: The seven-day average of new cases in the state was 180 on Tuesday; it was 137 on March 30, 2020.

Cases in the FauquierCounty School Division

Cumulative cases since Sept. 24: 191 -- 97 in students and 94 in staff members

Virginia: 1.9% Rappahannock-Rapidan Health District: 4.3% Perspective: RRHD epidemiologist Daniel Ferrell said that the percent positivity is elevated because screening testing has decreased. Testing is only being done in people who are symptomatic or have been directly exposed to the coronavirus. In the RRHD, the percent-positivity has been below 5% since May 18. Virginia: 30,651 Fauquier: 199 Perspective: Of the 505 people hospitalized in the RRHD, 93 have been older than 80 years old; 95 have been 70 to 79 years old; 93 have been between 60 and 69 years old; and 100 have been between 50 and 59. One hundred and thirteen have been 49 or younger. (For 10 of the hospitalizations, age was not reported.)

Deaths

Virginia: 3 Tuesday; 11,434 to date Fauquier: 69 Perspective: In the RRHD, of the 192 COVID-19 deaths reported in the RRHD so far, 87 have been in residents older than 80. There have been 52 deaths in those 70 to 79 years old; 22 deaths in those 60 to 69; and 22 deaths in those younger than 59. (For nine of the deaths, no age was reported.)

Vaccine coordinator named Fauquier Health’s 2021 Mercy Award recipient Taylor Bireley, Fauquier Health Wellness Center supervisor and COVID-19 vaccine coordinator, has received the health system’s 2021 Mercy Award. According to a Fauquier Health press release, the annual Mercy Award recognizes one employee from each of LifePoint Health’s hospitals who have “profoundly touched the lives of others and best represents the spirit and values on which the company was founded.” As the health system’s COVID-19 vaccine coordinator, Bireley collaborates closely with local community partners – Fauquier County, the Town of Warrenton, Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Man-

agement and Rappahannock-Rapidan Health District/VDH – to ensure smooth operations of the COVID-19 vaccine clinic. The Warrenton clinic, which began operation in January of 2021, has provided more than 26,000 vaccinations to local community members. Bireley has been with Fauquier Health for three years; she is an exercise physiologist. As supervisor of the Wellness Center, Taylor oversees exercise-based programs and massage therapy. The press release quoted a colleague, who said of Bireley, “She has spearheaded the vaccine clinic and has put together a wonderful team of professionals who have vaccinat-

ed the public. Taylor goes above and beyond for these clinics and works tirelessly to make sure as many as possible receive the vaccine. She is a true example of making communities healthier.” Chad Melton, CEO of Fauquier Health added, “We are extremely proud to recognize her hard work on behalf of our staff, patients and

community members. She goes above and beyond each and every day and has truly excelled during a very challenging time.” Each hospital winner across the country, including Taylor, will be considered for LifePoint’s 2021 company-wide Mercy Award. The company-wide winner will be announced and honored in the fall.

Fauquier schools lift mask mandate, despite new public health order requiring masks in K-12 school through July 25 By Robin Earl

Times Staff Writer

There was some confusion this week about whether or not mask-wearing would remain mandatory in Fauquier County Public Schools after June 30, when Gov. Ralph Northam’s Executive Order 51 expired. For now, at least, it seems that the mask mandate in the schools has been lifted, despite a July 1 order from the health commissioner stating that children older than 5 must still wear masks when inside K-12 schools. The order is in effect until July 25. On June 30, Fauquier County Public Schools posted on Twitter, “Effective July 1, 2021, FCPS will no longer require wearing face masks in FCPS buildings, buses or grounds. Students and staff will continue to have the option to wear face masks if preferred.” A link to the tweet explained that the change was due to the June 30 expiration of Virginia Executive Order 51 regarding COVID-19 restrictions. On July 1, however, State Health Commissioner Dr. M. Norman Oliver released a new public health order saying that since a public health emergency still exists; the order requires “all individuals aged 5 and older to wear masks when indoors at public and private K-12 schools in order to inhibit spread of the virus, as recommended and described by the Centers for Disease Control. This order applies to indoor, in-person instruction settings for K-12 students. In-person instruction setting means any form of indoor instructional interaction between teachers or staff and students that occurs in person and in real time.” The order includes several exceptions to the

Several members of the Fauquier County School Board object to the latest public health order on mask wearing in schools. They say the order is unenforceable. mask mandate – including when individuals are eating or drinking or exercising – and adds, “Any person who declines to wear a mask because of a medical condition shall not be required to produce or carry medical documentation verifying the stated condition, nor shall the person be required to identify the precise underlying medical condition.” As of Friday afternoon, the school division had not announced any changes to the original announcement.

Litter-Reber (Lee District) said, “ … we are not asking the school division to revise the guidance they released earlier this week based on the expiration of the state of emergency and I personally support that guidance and feel that the outcome of the existing guidance and the Executive Order are the same since the EO is completely unenforceable the way that it’s written. We have no plans to entertain any meetings between now and the [July] 12th to discuss guidance change. (July 12 is the next scheduled school board meeting.) School Board member Donna Grove confirmed that she agreed with Litter-Reber. Suzanne Sloane (Scott District) replied to a question about it via email; she agrees as well. Grove and Litter-Reber submitted a letter to the editor to the Fauquier Times, further explaining their position, emphasizing that the missive was their opinion and not official school board policy.

Another solar farm project looks for a nod from the planning commission By Peter Cary

Wa r r e n t o n

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

After a long hiatus, proposals for solar farms in Fauquier County are now sprouting like sunflowers. In April, a 40-acre solar proposal was narrowly rejected by the county planning commission. In mid-June an international company unveiled plans for an 800-acre farm in southern Fauquier. And now a 17-acre 3-megawatt farm off Meetze Road east of Warrenton is headed for a vote by the planning commission. The latest proposal, on a farm owned by Wenxian Ji and Deyu Wang at 8515 Meetze Road, would take up about 35% of the property. Even though it would be situated on prime agricultural land, Wang said his land is “a lot for us to manage” and he would prefer to lease 17 of his 48 acres for solar generation. He farms organic vegetables on about 10 acres and leases part of his land to another farmer, he said in an interview. “Leasing the land for solar will provide income for my family for the next 20 years and give me peace of mind to know that the land is being put to good use,” he wrote in a letter to the Fauquier Times (June 3). The project’s developer will host a community meeting on the project on July 7 at 7 p.m. at the nearby Black Horse Inn on Meetze Road. The county can grant a special exception to use agriculturally zoned property for a solar project, but the building of the project on prime agricultural land can be a sticking point if it is seen to conflict with the comprehensive plan’s directions to preserve the county’s agricultural land and culture. On April 15, the planning commission rejected on a 3-2 vote a 40-acre solar farm near Bealeton for just those reasons. The planning commission is scheduled to visit Wang’s farm on July 14, and a public hearing on the matter is set for the next day. Public participation is invited; normally the commission takes a vote on a proposed project after its hearing to decide whether it is in accord with the comprehensive plan. If it clears that first hurdle, the project’s owners can then apply for a special exception to advance the project. The developer of the Meetze project, Borrego Solar Systems, Inc., of San Diego, is aware that the project would be built on prime farmland, said project developer Jessie Robinson in an email. But he said the company is working with the landowners to minimize the impact of the solar system on the land and would plant the land under the solar panels with the “best pollinator attractors.” He also said the company is open to grazing sheep on the site, something Borrego has not done before, but which has been done in other states. Borrego is a 40-year-old family-owned company of 450 employees that has built some 300 projects in the U.S., Robinson said. He said that while

A fourth company announced last month it intends to apply to build a solar installation on 800 acres between Bealeton and Morrisville; the company did not disclose the exact proposed location. Borrego has not yet completed any other solar projects in Virginia, it has 13 projects in various stages of permitting in the state. Robinson said the Meetze Road project’s economic benefits would include 30 to 40 temporary construction jobs and two to four permanent jobs, and that it would increase the real estate taxes on the property. A new Virginia law that went into effect July 1 requires solar developers to hold a “siting meeting” with the jurisdiction where they are building, the purpose of which is to reach agreement on what mitigations the developer may offer the county. These may include direct farm, land or road mitigation or cash donations to projects the county chooses. While the law does not apply to solar farms under 5-megawatts – and thus the Meetze Road project would be exempt -- Robinson said that Borrego is planning to offer a voluntary contribution toward a local initiative chosen by the county. Past examples of Borrego’s contributions, he said,

PATH Foundation announces new round of Flexible Funding grants The PATH Foundation’s latest cycle of Flexible Funding grants will open on Tuesday, July 6. Flexible Funding grants will provide up to $75,000 in unrestricted general operating support to 501(c)(3) organizations that reflect the mission and values of the PATH Foundation within Fauquier, Rappahannock and Culpeper counties.  “Flexible Funding is a great opportunity for organizations to get unrestricted support as they work towards their mission,” said Christy Connolly, president and CEO of the PATH Foundation, said. “With this cycle of grantmaking, we aim to prioritize organizations helping those most in need, as we continue to work together to strengthen our community’s health and vitality.”

P ri nc e Wi l l ia m Co un t y

While Flexible Funding grants do not provide general operating support to faith communities, schools or governments, these groups can submit requests for new or ongoing programs, as long as they are community-facing and intersect with the PATH Foundation’s four priority areas: access to health, childhood wellness, mental health and senior services. Applications are open until Friday, July 30 at 5 p.m. Award recipients will be notified in September; successful grantees must use their funding within one year of the award date.

include money for a park, a radio emergency system and road improvements. The staff of the Piedmont Environmental Council has expressed concerns over the fact that the proposed 40-acre Bealeton project would be built on prime agricultural land, but has not yet studied the Meetze Road proposal, said Julie Bolthouse, the council’s land-use representative for Fauquier County. Generally, she said, it is Fauquier’s unique farmland characteristics that are attracting solar farm proposals. “It’s because we’ve got flat land; we’ve got a lot of open land that’s undeveloped; and we’ve also got large, intact parcels. Unfortunately, all the same reasons that make Fauquier a viable agricultural area also make it attractive to solar companies,” she said. The last solar site approved by the county was a 20-MW project on 125 acres near Remington owned by Dominion Virginia Power. It began the permitting process in 2015 and began generating in October 2017. An 800-acre proposal was unveiled by solar developer AES Clean Energy at a Rotary Club meeting on June 17; AES will submit its application to the county by the end of the year, its project developer said. Fauquier County commissioners, citing the county’s rural economy and culture, have been cautious about approving solar farms. When the supervisors voted to allow the Dominion facility to go forward in 2015, then-Lee District supervisor Chester Stribling said, “I’m not excited about solar energy. But the federal and state government are.” Supervisor Rick Gerhardt, in whose Cedar Run district the Meetze Road project lies, could not be reached for comment. He had said in April that in his opinion the project was not an ideal location, as it could affect neighbors and “will upset the agricultural balance in this area.” But he said he wanted to see if the impacted public was on board and would rely heavily on public comments to take a position on the project.

Levi Norwood admitted to killing his mother and brother, search warrant affidavit alleges NORWOOD, from page 1 The search warrant affidavit, submitted by a Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office detective and unsealed in August last year, also alleges Norwood, now 18, brought a machete to an after-school event, although the time this allegedly occurred is not stated. “[Norwood] has made post-Miranda statements admitting to both of the murders,” the document claims, referencing the 1966 U.S. Supreme Court case that requires police officers to inform arrested individuals of their constitutional right to silence. “Your affiant has found corresponding letters and messages with other Liberty High School students about homicide,” the affidavit continues. “Your affiant has also learned that [Norwood] has taken a concealed weapon (machete) to an after-school event.” Norwood, a junior at Liberty at the time of his arrest, is accused of fatally shooting his mother, Jennifer Norwood, and his 6-year-old brother Wyatt in their home on Feb. 14, 2020. He is also accused of shooting – non-fatally – his father, Joshua Norwood, and subsequently fleeing in a stolen car to North Carolina, where he was later apprehended and extradited to Virginia. On April 20, 2020, Joshua Norwood was found dead at the same home in Midland, according to a sheriff’s office spokesperson. “No foul play is suspected,” said the spokes-

man, Sgt. James Hartman, at the time, who added that no one else was home at the time and that Norwood suffered trauma to the upper body. Represented by public defender Ryan Ruzic, Levi Norwood has remained in custody without bond since his arrest and extradition. He is next scheduled to appear in court Aug. 5, when a judge is expected to rule whether or not he is mentally competent to stand trial. Judge Jeanette Irby granted a second “not guilty by reason of insanity” evaluation at a March 5 hearing at Fauquier County Circuit Court. The request was granted over the commonwealth’s objection, Ruzic said at the time. Another competency evaluation was also ordered. Norwood underwent a “not guilty by reason of insanity” evaluation in August of 2020 and it was established that he was competent at that time. In the motion for a second exam submitted to the court March 5, Ruzic stated that the August evaluation also noted that Norwood “has significant mental health problems, and that when confronted with intense or emotionally activating information or decisions, it may be expected that his abilities will deteriorate significantly.” Norwood is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, each of which carries a potential life sentence. He is also charged with several lesser felonies related to the alleged murders.

Former Fauquier High drama teacher charged with sex crimes METTINGER, from page 1 Mettinger is a former drama teacher at Fauquier High School and had been self-employed tutoring high school and college students since 2017, according to his personal Facebook page. He was active in the local theater scene and has directed several plays in the area. He also has been active with the Warrenton Chorale. A 1988 graduate of Fauquier High, Mettinger began teaching at the school in August 2001 and left the school division in May 2012, school division spokeswoman Tara Helkowski confirmed. “He is not eligible for rehire,” she added. When Mettinger left his teaching position, he handed over the direction of the Fauquier High School spring play mid-production. He has also worked as an adjunct professor at Lord Fairfax Community College, according to multiple biographies of Mettinger posted online. A college spokesperson clarified

that Mettinger worked at the school’s Fauquier campus as an adjunct professor from 1998 to 2008, teaching public speaking and acting. Mettinger was also briefly employed by Allegro Community School of the Arts in Warrenton. The organization released the following statement July 1: “Allegro hired Kevin Mettinger several years ago to direct two of our musicals. As with all our teachers, he was required to complete a background check before beginning work, which was returned to us showing no issues. Although quite talented, we didn’t feel he was a good fit for Allegro and we ended our engagement together after the second production. Due to the nature of the shows and the casting, Mr. Mettinger was never alone with minor children; adults were always present.” Anyone with information that may be relevant to the investigation is asked to contact Det. Matthew Eggars of the Warrenton Police Department at 540-347-1107, extension 231.

SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR A 2021 TRIENNIAL REVIEW OF ITS BASE RATES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS PURSUANT TO § 56-585.1 OF THE CODE OF VIRGINIA CASE NO. PUR-2021-00058 •Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Dominion”) filed its 2021 triennial review of its base rates, terms and conditions pursuant to § 56 585.1 of the Code of Virginia on March 31, 2021. On May 18, 2021, Dominion filed significant corrections to its March 31, 2021 filing (“Corrected Filing”). •As a result of the Corrected Filing, the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) extended all previously established procedural dates to provide interested persons adequate time to review the Corrected Filing and directed Dominion to file this supplemental notice of its application. •While Dominion does not request an overall increase or decrease in revenues, it does propose a revenue neutral reallocation of revenues between the distribution and generation function of base rates. According to Dominion, the requested revenue reallocation would decrease the bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $0.30. Retail choice customers, as well as customers taking service under Dominion’s market-based rate schedules, would receive an increase in base distribution revenue allocation but would not receive a decrease in base generation charges. •Due to the ongoing public health emergency related to the spread of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, the Commission will hold a telephonic hearing in this case on October 22, 2021, at 10 a.m., for the receipt of public witness testimony. •An evidentiary hearing will be held on October 25, 2021, at 10 a.m., either in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, or by electronic means. Further details on this hearing will be provided by subsequent Commission Order. •Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: scc.virginia.gov/pages/Case-Information scc.virginia.gov/pages/Case-Information.. On March 31, 2021, Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Dominion” or “Company”) filed an application with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”), pursuant to § 56-585.1 A of the Code of Virginia (“Code”), for a triennial review of the Company’s rates, terms and conditions for the provision of generation, distribution and transmission services (“March 31, 2021 Filing”). On April 16, 2021, the Commission issued an Order for Notice and Hearing (‘’Procedural Order’’) that, among other things, docketed the case, directed Dominion to provide public notice of its March 31, 2021 Filing, established a procedural schedule, scheduled public hearings for the purpose of receiving testimony and evidence on the March 31, 2021 Filing, and provided an opportunity for interested persons to file comments on the March 31, 2021 Filing or participate in the case as a respondent. Dominion published public notice of its March 31, 2021 Filing in newspapers of general circulation throughout the Company’s service territory in Virginia. After publishing its public notice, Dominion filed significant corrections to its March 31, 2021 Filing (‘’Corrected Filing’’). The Commission subsequently issued an Order Modifying Procedural Schedule and for Supplemental Notice (‘’Revised Procedural Order’’), wherein it extended all of the procedural dates set forth in the Procedural Order and directed Dominion to publish this supplemental notice to provide the public with information concerning the March 31, 2021 Filing, as amended by the Corrected Filing (collectively, “Application’’). According to the Company, its Application presents three principal issues for the Commission’s determination: (i) review of the Company’s cost of service and earnings during the four successive 12-month periods ending December 31, 2020 (“Triennial Review Period”) and a finding of whether there are any past earnings available for reinvestment or customer bill credits; (ii) a determination of whether rates for generation and distribution services should remain stable for the upcoming triennial review period or change, taking into account earnings test results, the Company’s level of investment in qualifying projects, the statutory prohibition on a rate increase in this case under Code § 56-585.1 A 8 (“Subsection A 8”), and the present functional alignment of these rates; and (iii) a determination of the Company’s prospective fair rate of return on common equity (“ROE”) in accordance with Code § 56-585.1 A 2. Earnings Review Dominion states that, for the combined Triennial Review Period, the Company earned a 10.42% ROE on its generation and distribution operations on a Virginia jurisdictional basis, relative to the allowed ROE of 9.2% approved by the Commission in Case No. PUR-2019-00050. The Company states that after consideration of certain outstanding customer balances required to be forgiven pursuant to recent legislative enactments, its earnings fell within the authorized earnings band. In the event the Commission reaches a different determination as to the earnings test results and calculates a higher level of available earnings that exceeds the debt forgiveness amounts, the Company states that it elects to apply, pursuant to Subsection A 8, offsetting investments in the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind demonstration project equal to such available earnings, and then to the extent necessary, to apply offsetting investments in the customer information platform and in advanced metering infrastructure (“AMI”) equal to such remaining available earnings, up to the Company’s total eligible Virginia jurisdictional customer credit reinvestment offsets (“CCROs”) investments of $309 million. Based on its financial results, Dominion states that its base rates will remain stable until at least the end of the next triennial review in 2024 because the law precludes an increase and the Company’s aggregate approved CCRO investments over the Triennial Review Period exceed earnings available for sharing from that period. ROE The Company requests the Commission approve a 10.80% authorized ROE to be applied prospectively to its generation and distribution services. Dominion asserts that its current cost of equity falls within a range of 10.50% to 11.50%, and the requested 10.8% falls below the midpoint of the range. The Application states that the requested ROE also falls within the lower boundaries of the Company’s calculation of the prescribed statutory peer group range of 10.33% to 11.83%. The Company asserts that it forecasts capital investment exceeding $28 billion over the next five years, $23 billion of which will be used to support investment such as customer growth, solar build out, storage deployment, nuclear subsequent license renewal, and the first utility scale off-shore wind project built in federal waters. Further, the Company states that its need and ability to undertake these substantial investments is directly related to the determination of an adequate and reasonable ROE in this case. Longer term, the Company states it anticipates investments related to compliance with the Virginia Clean Economy Act alone may approach $40 billion over the next 15 years. Revenue Apportionment and Rate Design Although the Company does not propose an increase or decrease to overall revenues, the Company proposes to re-balance the rates of return between the generation and distribution functions by a revenue neutral transfer of approximately $300 million between those functions. Dominion states this transfer is needed to mitigate cost shifting between bundled service customers and retail choice customers. According to the Company, presently, base distribution rates are not sufficient to recover distribution costs, meaning that retail choice customers are not paying rates that result in revenues sufficient to recover the distribution costs incurred to serve them. The Company further states that revenue changes are allocated to the customer classes with the goal of moving each class closer to parity. While revenue neutral to the Company, this transfer may not be neutral to all customers on their bills, and could result in: (i) an increase, (ii) a decrease, or (iii) no change to the customer’s bills. Based on the Company’s analysis, its re-balancing proposal and revenue apportionment proposal would result in an $0.30 reduction in the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month. If approved, retail choice customers, as well as customers taking service under the Company’s market-based rate schedules (“market-based rate customers”), will receive an increase in base distribution revenue allocation, but will not receive a decrease in base generation charges, as retail choice customers do not take generation service from the Company and the market-based rate customers take service at market based rates for generation service. The Company proposes that the revised tariffs become effective for usage on and after the first day of the month that is no more than 60 days after the date of the Commission’s Final Order in the proceeding but no earlier than January 1, 2022. AMI As part of this proceeding, the Company states it is requesting a Commission determination that its investments in AMI from 2017 to 2020, including 310,000 smart meters and associated infrastructure, are reasonable and prudent. In connection with AMI, the Company is also proposing a change to its tariff regarding the smart meter opt-out policy and associated fees. Currently, residential customer accounts in good standing may opt-out of smart meter installation upon request and at no expense. The Company’s new policy would continue to permit accounts in good standing to opt-out, but would impose a one time initial fee of $52.24, and an ongoing monthly fee of $36.19, which the Company states are intended to recover the incremental costs of a customer opting-out of smart meter installation. Customers that have opted-out of a smart meter in the past would not be subject to the one time initial fee of $52.24, but would be required to either opt in to a smart meter at no charge or become subject to the ongoing monthly fee of $36.19. Customers receiving electric service on any time varying or demand rate and customers who generate electricity are ineligible to opt-out of smart meter installation because detailed energy usage data is required to bill these customers. Other Tariff Changes The Company proposes to update the basic customer charge in Residential Rate Schedule 1 from $6.58 to $8.44. In addition, the Company proposes changes to its existing tariffs that include the following: (i) withdraw Rate Schedule CS – Curtailable Service, Rate Schedule SG – Standby Generator, and Rider J – Interruptible Electric Water Heating Service Residential Customers; (ii) add clarifying language to certain tariffs to recognize the applicability of demand-based rates in distribution-related riders; (iii) modify the language in existing tariffs to address the applicability of non-bypassable charges; (iv) modify restrictive tariff language from Rate Schedule 24 – Outdoor Lighting Service Solid State Outdoor Lighting; (v) change the term of contract for Rider EDR – Economic Development Rate; (vi) modify certain language in Rate Schedule 10 – Large General Service; (vii) modify the determination of distribution demand tariff language in certain rate schedules; (viii) include standby charges in Rate Schedule 1S applicable to eligible residential customers with installed capacity of more than 15 kilowatts; (ix) modify Rider REC – Renewable Energy Certificate Purchase Program to reflect updated renewable energy certificate sources and pricing; and (x) update Rider D – Tax Effect Recovery to reflect the proposed changes in this proceeding. The Company is also proposing changes to the process whereby contract minimums are established for customer billing purposes and revisions to the Company’s Commission-approved Line Extension Plan. The foregoing is not an exhaustive list of all the proposals contained in the Company’s Application. Interested persons are encouraged to review Dominion’s Application and supporting documents in full for details about these and other proposals. TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Application and supporting documents and thus may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company’s Application and supporting documents. In its Revised Procedural Order, the Commission canceled the procedural dates set forth in the April 16, 2021 Procedural Order and established new procedural dates as provided below. On October 22, 2021, at 10 a.m., the Commission will hold a telephonic hearing for the purpose of receiving the testimony of public witnesses, with no public witness present in the Commission’s courtroom.

OPINION WWW.FAUQUIER.COM

Fauquier Times | July 7, 2021

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

To mask or not to mask, that is the question: State mandate is unenforceable This opinion piece is solely based on the opinions of the authors. On June 30 at 11:59 p.m., the state of emergency that Virginia had been operating under since March 12, 2020 expired, effectively lifting all restrictions that had been put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (See story, page 3.) That same day, June 30, JAMA (a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal published by the American Medical Association) released a Pediatric study (https://jamanetwork. com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2781743) assessing carbon dioxide content in inhaled air observed in children with and without masks. The final paragraph of the study states: “A recent review concluded that there was

ample evidence for adverse effects of wearing such masks. We suggest that decision-makers weigh the hard evidence produced by these experimental measurements accordingly, which suggest that children should not be forced to wear face masks.” Armed with both the state of emergency expiration, as well as a peer-reviewed medical study stating that we, as decision makers, should not be forcing our children to wear masks, Fauquier County Public Schools put out guidance that masks shall be optional going forward. Each family is encouraged to examine their individual situation, weigh their personal risks against benefits and make a decision that best suits their needs. On July 1, the state health com-

missioner released another executive order mandating masks for school-aged children. No locality should be stuck trying to weigh a state mandate against a peer-reviewed medical study, but here we are. It is the opinion of these authors that the wearing of masks should remain optional. The decision surrounding whether or not a child should be masked should be made by the parent or guardian based on individual situations in the absence of a state of emergency. The school will support the decision of the parent. The Commonwealth’s EO specifically states that medical exemptions can be used, and no questions can be asked, no documentation be

Writer objects to the denial of a permit to The Puppy Shop Why even bother with a show of an appeal for Angela Jrab? Obviously, per the Zoning Appeals Board, it had pre-determined to deny the special permit for The Puppy Shop [“County will revise zoning to disallow standalone companion animal retailer,” Fauquier Times, June 9, 2021]. The board chairman made a show of dismissing the 130-plus written comments, concerning puppy mills as outside the scope of the hearing. But did they really?  Then, the board addressed four zoning violations, but first stated the violations constitute an expectation of repeated violations. Look at the four violations: • Complaint A: “Starting construction work before building permit approval.”  The building permit application was to convert a dry cleaning business to a pet store. The actual offense was removing standing equipment! The board had to stretch to consider that a building violation.  • Complaints B and C: “Posting unpermitted signs.” Ms. Jrab followed the example of neighboring businesses. If the county did not take the other businesses to task, then why was Ms. Jrab singled out for sign violations? • Complaint D: “Having too many animals on site.” The zoning special permit specifically states, “24 puppies for sale on site.” The permit continues saying “no breeding, grooming, training, or boarding” on site. Ms. Jrab was cited for having 31 puppies on site. Only 24 were for sale, as specified in the permit. The additional seven puppies were not for sale but placed in quarantine which is not prohibited. The permit as a legal document is definitive; thus, the list cannot be modified on a whim. To an observer, Angela Jrab was specifically targeted with “spurious” violations for the sole purpose of orchestrating reasons for denying her special permit. Why would the zoning board not hear or

required. This effectively makes the EO optional as it removes the locality’s ability to enforce this EO. In addition, the EO states the state health commissioner, acting for the board of health when it is not in session, is vested with authority to make separate orders to meet any emergency …” In the absence of a State of Emergency, does this clause hold water? Our message to the state-level decision makers: please get your act together and stop dumping conflicting/questionable guidance and unenforceable EOs on the localities.

address any statements or investigation on the housing conditions of the puppies? Nor accept the good standing The Puppy Shop has with the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office’s Animal Control Division? All of this leads to the conclusion that the zoning board was biased and pre-determined to deny the special permit. Especially when the rest of the story is heard. Just two weeks following the zoning review meeting, per the Fauquier Times, June 16, the Fauquier County Board of Supervisors announced they are going to rewrite zoning codes to prohibit retail pet stores in Fauquier County. In order to “ … respond to the uproar a New Baltimore puppy retailer … ” had created. Really? And the board of supervisors wants us to believe they were not working on this goal before the zoning board had a “fair and honest” hearing for Angela Jrab and her Puppy Shop. Does the board of supervisors understand that 130 written complaints and 10 speakers complaining about puppy mills does not constitute an “uproar” by the community? In fact, 140 individuals are merely a ridiculously small portion of the county populace.    Ms. Jrab’s extensive records show that her puppies were received in healthy condition from respected breeders. Obviously, a biased board of supervisors and zoning board decided to support a small vocal group and deny renewal of The Puppy Shop’s special permit. Finally, will the board of supervisors really bring the updated language to the populace for their input? The Puppy Shop’s permit should be immediately approved. In addition, the members of the board of supervisors and zoning board should be replaced, and the county attorney’s office should start an investigation on the conduct of the board of supervisors and zoning board.

First Lady Kristy Jackson of Poplar Forks Baptist Church died Thursday after battling cancer for six years, according to family friend Betty Ball. The July 10 gospel music festival to benefit the Jackson family will still take place, Ball said, and will be a celebration of Jackson’s life. The event may also include a short memorial service, Ball added, but plans have not yet been finalized. Jackson had battled breast cancer since 2015. Local churches had rallied around the Jackson family as the financial burden of six years of cancer treatments accumulated. Community members have already given more than $11,000, and the music festival fundraiser had already been scheduled before Jackson passed away last week. Jackson, whose husband, the Rev. Earl Jackson is the pastor of Poplar Forks, was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer which had since spread to much of her body. The Jacksons have two daughters: Nicole and Maddison. Ball recently stepped up to organize the festival, which begins Saturday at 1 p.m. at Eva Walker Park in Warrenton; food sales and donations at the event will go to the Jackson family. The event will feature gospel singers from around Northern Virginia along with food, a moon bounce, face painting, games and raffles. Admission is free.

MARC COSTANZO NAMED LIBERTY GIRLS BASKETBALL COACH Former JV coach replaces Nyugen, plans to speed up style of play By Fred Hodge

Special to the Times

Liberty High quickly found its new girls basketball coach. Liberty’s previous junior varsity girls basketball coach, Marc Costanzo, is sliding in to fill the vacancy created when Quynh Nyugen unexpectedly resigned in May to become the head coach at Osbourn High. A fixture at Liberty, Costanzo has been the Eagles’ head girls soccer coach and JV girls basketball coach the past three years. He may give up coaching soccer now. “I loved coaching soccer and being at Liberty is the perfect spot, but getting the girls head coaching basketball spot has been a goal of mine for close to 10 years,” he said. “I see myself coaching here for a long time.” Costanzo began coaching in a men’s recreational league in Manassas 20 years ago before moving into the youth recreational team arena five years later when his son, Colin Simmons, began playing. Older daughter Eve and Emma, a rising Liberty senior, followed, but it was the 2012 Fauquier County School Board decision to drop middle school sports that led to coaching at Cedar Lee. “When the county made the decision to eliminate middle schools sports, Warrenton Youth Soccer Club took over the programs, and that was my first opportunity to coach at middle school,” Costanzo said of coaching at Cedar Lee. He stayed when sports were reinstitut-

ed, coaching the Trojans boys and girls teams and continuing at the recreational and AAU levels. He enjoyed working with the sixth through eighth graders, but the experience whetted his appetite to coach at the high school level. Nyugen recruited him to join her staff when she became Liberty’s head coach for the 2018-19 school year, and he took over the junior varsity unit. “I was elated because I had grown a huge passion for coaching women’s basketball, and high school was the ultimate next step even if it was head JV or varsity assistant,” Costanzo explained. Costanzo said Nyugen’s decision to coach at her high school alma mater after three years at LHS surprised him, but recognized an opportunity to fulfill a long-time desire. See COSTANZO, page 19

New head coach Marc Costanzo (right) is excited to continue Liberty’s strong girls basketball tradition. He’s been the Eagles’ JV girls basketball coach the last three years, and also coached the Liberty girls soccer team. “I see myself coaching (here) for a long time,” says Constanzo, who replaces Quynh Nyugen, who left to coach girls basketball at Osbourn High.

Coaching turnover creates job openings at FHS, LHS, Kettle Run By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

There’s suddenly a wealth of coaching openings at Fauquier County’s three high schools. The most prominent job opportunity is the Fauquier High boys basketball job, which was vacated when 27-year coach Wayne Brizzi announced his retirement in June. Fauquier also has an opening for its girls lacrosse coach after Ken McInnis recently departed after seven years. Jake Preli also stepped aside after one year as Falcon boys tennis coach. Fauquier also has an opening for its JV girls lacrosse coach. Liberty has openings for baseball, girls soccer and JV wrestling. The Liberty field hockey team will also see a new coach because Katie Norman resigned after the season to spend more time with her two

The Falcons’ third home game is Oct. 29 against Sherando, followed by the season-ending Bird Bowl Nov. 5 at Liberty. In contrast, Liberty plays six home games, including four of its first five at home. The Eagles open at home against Brentsville on Aug. 27 and also host Mountain View, Culpeper, Kettle Run, Millbrook and Fauquier.

101st Warrenton Pony Show

Junior organizers thrilled with turnout, perfect weather at renewed event By Betsy Burke Parker Special to the Times

Virginia Harris and Pescado jump to victory in the $2,500 Pony Hunter Derby, the two-round Warrenton Pony Show headliner sponsored by Country Chevrolet.

One hundred of anything is a lot. Especially when it comes to years. Organizers of the Warrenton Pony Show agree, 101 is icing on the cake. Especially after a year away. One of the oldest horse competitions in the nation, and the only one run entirely by a junior committee, the Warrenton Pony Show returned to the historic Warrenton Horse Show grounds near Old Town for the event’s 101st renewal, June 30 to July 4. Show co-president Baillie Saffer, 18, said the junior committee, senior advisors, professional staff and competitors were thrilled to be back in action. “Last year we had to cancel, of course,” Saffer said, after months of debate whether to press on in the face of the pandemic like some shows did. But they decided, in the end, the Pony Show is as much a social event for the town as it is a rated competition, and they elected to cancel. “And even this year, we weren’t sure until really late we could have the show at all. “It was fun to go through all the 100th anniversary photos and memories” when the committee finally gave the green light for the July 4 weekend event, Saffer added. “You look at those old photos and realize how historic it is, how long it has been around.” Saffer, her co-president Susannah Gerhardt, and 18 junior committee members handled every facet of show organization. They manned the ringside secretary’s stand, handed out ribbons and organized an active silent auction. Through the years, the show has given more than $50,000 to the local SPCA animal shelter, its benefit charity. Warrenton-based trainer Jonelle Mullen is on the Pony Show board

They did an extra good job in a year when we didn’t even know if it could happen until a couple months ago,” Mullen said. The five-day show is “A” rated by the U.S. Equestrian Federation and the Virginia and Maryland horse show associations.

Classic competition

Virginia Harris and her Pescado took top honors in the headline $2,500 Country Chevrolet pony classic Saturday night. Harris trains with Emily Betts in Powhatan. Caroline Gilmer, who trains with Fiona Turner and Dale Crittenberger, earned Best Child Rider on a pony with her Cloud Nine. Cloud Nine also swept the large pony hunter division for the championship; the pair finished third in Saturday’s Pony Derby. Best Child Rider on a horse was Victoria Reed on trainer Melynda Legg’s White Noise. Cedar Lee seventh grader Scarlett Mortenson won the Virginia Horse Shows Association children’s medal on her Silverwood Dress Blues. Camille DeStanley won the U.S. Equestrian Federation pony medal on her Walnut Creek Holy Smoke. In the pony hunter breeding division, Alicia Kline’s Counterpoint, a pony yearling, won Best Young Pony, with Melinda Snyder’s Covenant Somethingroyal, reserve.

Final Olympic outing held at Great Meadow Three-day event squad polishes their performance before heading to Tokyo By Betsy Burke Parker Special to Fauquier Times

The new dressage test movements have been practiced; the cross-country fitness checked; and the show jumping form polished. Horse and rider pairs set to represent the U.S. three-day event team at the upcoming Tokyo Olympics completed a dress rehearsal at Great Meadow in The Plains last week, a final tune-up before stepping onto the world stage. Eleven pairs taking part in the non-competitive “competition” included team riders Phillip Dutton on Z; Liz Halliday-Sharp on Deniro Z; and Boyd Martin on Tsetserleg TSF; traveling reserve Doug Payne on Vandiver; and traveling alternates Tamie Smith on Mai Baum and Will Faudree on Mama’s Magic Way. They were joined by the five riders on the Olympic “short list,” plus Canadian rider Colleen Loach, to round out the critical practice session.. Scores were kept, but the results were somewhat irrelevant, said U.S. team coach, Erik Duvander. Duvander said the point of the final outing was to sharpen horses and riders “under a real, competition atmosphere” but without too difficult a test this close to the Games. Two of the three team horses jumped double-clear in show jumping, and all three team horses were clear on cross-country. Halliday-Sharp is excited about her Olympic debut. “This has been a really great opportunity for us to get our horses back out,” she said. “They needed a real competition. Most of our horses haven’t run since Kentucky, which was nine weeks ago. I think the preparation was great – great ground, great courses, just enough pressure on the cross-country to set them up.

Phillip Dutton heads to his seventh Olympic Games. “We didn’t want it too easy. The course was short, and the questions came up fast. I think that was great to set them up and get them thinking. “Deniro Z is feeling fantastic, and he’s in great form and really fought for me (on cross-country.) Our goal was to put him in a really good, confident place.” Boyd Martin, based in southeast Pennsylvania, says Tsetserleg, named for a village in South Africa, is in prime form. “He jumped like a buck” on the show jumping course, Martin said. “I feel good — mentally (and) physically ready to roll. Here we come, Tokyo.” “It’s been a great couple of days at Great Meadow, thanks to everyone who put this on,” added Dutton, also based in Pennsylvania. He’s making his seventh Olympic showing. “I don’t think any of us are

taking for granted the enormity of what we’ve got coming up in Tokyo. One, the competition is going to be very stiff and then the new format which is three to a team. We … feel prepared and confident about our chances of doing really well.” Team horses and the two traveling alternates relocated to Gladstone, New Jersey, earlier this week in preparation to fly to Aachen, Germany on July 8. In Aachen, they’ll join other European horses headed to Tokyo in pre-export quarantine. While there, riders get one last chance to practice the new dressage test in front of an international judge, and they’ll practice show jumping “under the lights” in an evening session. They fly to Tokyo on July 20. Olympic equestrian events include: dressage grand prix, July 24 to 26; dressage freestyle, July 28; eventing dressage July 29 to 30; cross-country, July 31; eventing show jumping, Aug. 2; and show jumping Aug. 3 to 7. All events are livestreamed at nbcsports.com, nbcolympics.com and peacock.com. The dressage freestyle and show jumping final will be televised. Check nbcsports. com for the full television schedule. Full results of the Great Meadow outing are at eventingnation.com.

POLICE BRIEF, from page 6

COSTANZO, from page 14

County Sheriff’s Office said that detectives from the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office Street Crimes Unit identified Garner’s location and contacted the local police department in Oklahoma to have her taken into custody. Garner is charged with armed robbery, use of a firearm in commission of a felony and malicious wounding by mob. Garner is being held at the Canadian County Detention Center in El Reno, Oklahoma without a bond, pending extradition back to Fauquier County. A criminal complaint described the alleged crime: A group of three men robbed another man at gunpoint on Wolfe Court in Bealeton June 27, taking $1,500 in cash and a cell phone from the victim. The men also assaulted the victim, leaving him with several injuries, including a chipped tooth, according to the complaint. The victim was “pistol whipped multiple times throughout the altercation,” according to the complaint, and the victim was subsequently taken to Fauquier Hospital for treatment. Three others have been arrested in the incident. James O. Weaver, 21, of Catlett is charged with armed robbery, use of a firearm in commission of a felony, malicious wounding by mob and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Weaver is being held at the Fau-

“It was time. I felt I was fully prepared to take on the responsibilities of running the program and applied for the job,” Costanzo said, expressing his gratitude to Liberty principal Sam Cox and activities director Dean Spahr for choosing him. “Plus, I have coached the majority of the seniors this season at Liberty since they stepped foot in middle school,” he said. “I wanted to be there with them as they finish their high school career.” Familiarity with the returning talent is a large plus, Costanzo said, allowing him to proceed implementing a few changes. “It is an advantage to know your players ahead of time, so I can meet them halfway in order to get the most success out of them,” Costanzo said Nyugen set the stage for him to succeed. “Coach Q really changed the environment over the past few years for the better...done a great job in turning around the atmosphere and instilling hard work, accountability and integrity into the program,” he praised. “I have learned a lot from her, and I don’t plan on making any wholesale changes. Of course, there will be some minor tweaks, but the culture is already where I want it to be. I cannot thank coach Q enough for that.” The Eagles were winless in the pandemic-affected 2021 season

quier Adult Detention Center without a bond. Jonathan Fields, 27, is charged with armed robbery, the use of a firearm in commission of a felony and malicious wounding by a mob. He remains in custody with no bond. according to court records. Another individual, Markelle Haymond, 19, was arrested and charged with possessing an item stolen from the victim but was not alleged to have participated in the robbery itself. She also remained in custody and is being held on a secure bond of $500. Neither Fields nor Haymond has a fixed address, according to charging documents.

with a highly inexperienced team with no seniors and little varsity experience. Costanzo feels the record was an aberration. “The fire inside them is burning bright to show this county that last year was not the norm,” he said. He will likely use a combination of zone and man-to-man defenses to keep the opposition off balance and hopes to up the tempo. “That is going to look a lot different...we are going to get up and down the court. I plan on 32 minutes of fast-paced action,” Costanzo said. He called it “a challenge the girls are looking forward to but also something a bit different than what long-time Liberty women basketball fans have seen in the past.” Recent NCAA Division I players from Liberty include Makaela Kestner (Liberty U.) and Kinsley Lewis (Radford). “We are not loaded with college players like Liberty teams of the past,” Costanzo noted. “That doesn’t mean we cannot be successful, however, we just have to focus on doing the little things, believe in each other and being the most aggressive team on the court for 32 minutes.” The Human Resources Department is advertising the girls soccer position Costanzo held. He expressed a desire to remain a part of the program even if a new coach is found, but he stressed the situation is fluid.

MEMORIAL SERVICE VS FUNERAL What is the difference between a funeral and a memorial service? Both serve the same function, to honor and remember someone significant and confront the reality of death. However, a funeral is a service to honor a deceased person with the body present in a casket. In contrast, a memorial service is a time to memorialize the individual without the body, although cremated remains may be present. Funerals are often conducted immediately before burial or cremation, and the location is usually either a church or funeral home. Memorial services allow for greater flexibility and more options for the place, such as a park or community center, and time, occurring days to months after death. A funeral or memorial service can take place at a funeral home, in a church, or even at your home. The service is a ceremony which serves to celebrate, honor, and remember the life of the deceased. Whether traditional or unique, both the visitation and the funeral service can be personalized to reflect the individuality of your loved one. Please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 347-3431 or see us at our 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton facility to learn more about our services. Our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY is located just outside of Warrenton. “The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.” Alan Watts

Born August 6th, 1937 in Remington, ‘Gene’ was a child with an adventurous spirit. Often finding ways to escape, roam, and dodge trouble. He loved playing baseball with his friends, and would often reminisce about those games until his last days. Gene graduated from Remington High School, and started living his life to the fullest. Service in the National Guard, was followed by working at the US Treasury, with weekends spent racing his unbeatable Ford at the track. He opened the Montgomery Ward store on Main Street in Warrenton, working day and night running the store and making deliveries. For a time he ran a car dealership, worked as a Realtor, then ran for Fauquier Supervisor. He started Butler Fence, installing countless miles of fencing throughout the area. He found a passion for construction and became a well known home builder in the county. Never afraid of hard work, Gene was ever the provider. He and his wife Jeanne had four wonderful children. Neil Butler of Midland, Angela Butler of Midland, Holly Murray of Bealeton, and Robinne Miller of Clover, SC. In addition to his wife and children, Gene is survived by his brother James, three grand children and two great grand children. There will be a private family service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Remington Volunteer Fire Department or Capital Caring Hospice.
