Lateef wins messy race for school board chair

Satterwhite concedes but calls for investigation into ‘illegal’ PAC By Karen Chaffraix and Jill Palermo Times Staff Writer

In 1607, Capt. John Smith is said to have met with Indians while visiting the island, which could have been a peninsula back then. Arrowheads have been found there. It was believed to have been owned by Giles Brent around 1649, and that he lived there with his wife, Kitamaquund, the daughter of a Piscataway Indian leader. In the early 1700s, Alexander Scott, rector at historic Aquia Church in Stafford County owned it. Almost nothing is known about the island for the next 100 years or so because the Stafford County Courthouse and all its records were destroyed in a fire during the Civil War.

Dr. Babur Lateef won the special election for chairman of the Prince William County School Board last week, garnering more than 47 percent of the vote in a three-way race. Alyson Satterwhite, one of his two opponents, held a press conference the day after the Nov. 6 election, however, calling for the Virginia Department of Elections to investigate a political action committee named “Republicans for Stanley Bender” that she and other local Republicans called “illegal” and said likely cost Satterwhite key GOP votes. Still, there’s no indication the PAC – or any investigation into possible wrongdoing – will affect the outcome of the race, which Satterwhite conceded to Lateef on Thursday, Nov. 8. In a Facebook post, Satterwhite said she called Lateef to congratulate him: “We had a good conversation,” she wrote. Lateef posted his own announcement shortly thereafter, calling his win an “overwhelming validation by the people of Prince William County to affirm a person who shares their values.” Lateef is an ophthalmologist with four children enrolled in Prince William County schools. He was endorsed by the local Democratic committee and has served as interim school board chairman since March, when the school board appointed him to the post after former school board chairman Ryan Sawyers resigned. “Alyson Satterwhite called to congratulate me and we had a great conversation about the work we’ve done so far together and the direction of the school board,” Lateef wrote. “She has played and will continue to play a vital role … I would like to congratulate her on a hard fought campaign.”

Want to buy a private island? ‘Chop Island’ is chock full of interesting history and it’s yours for $15 million By Aileen M. Streng Contributing Writer

The views from Chopawamsic Island of the Potomac River are breathtaking and its history is intriguing – even if some of it is fuzzy at best. The 13-acre island just off the coast from Quantico Marine Corps’ “HMX1,” the helicopter squadron responsible for flying the president, has recently been put on the market for $15 million. The owner, who prefers to remain anonymous, hired Weichert Capital Region’s “Rock Star Band” real-estate team over the summer for a definitive amount of time with the sole purpose of selling it to the Marine Corps. “He is a patriot and that was his main goal,” said Nick Letendre, the realtor with the listing, of the island’s owner. When approached, Letendre said the Marine Corps initially expressed interest and it was asked to make an offer. Shortly after that, he was told, “The Marine Corps would not be placing an offer and this is our final response,” Letendre said. “And that was it,” he said. Letendre was disappointed; his brother was a Marine killed in Iraq in 2006. “I feel very close to the Ma-

Now the island is for sale to the general public. “I would love to sit on my back porch and watch the president’s helicopter take off,” said Joe Ford, another member of the Weichert team. Most of the water between the island and HMX-1 is restricted. Since the listing, there has been some interest, but no offers. Among the ideas they have heard for the land include building a retreat for wounded warriors or a similar organization. “It could be a good fit,” he said. The owner bought the island in 1991 for $375,000. The last time he was on the island was 10 years ago. “We are open to any offer,” Letendre said. “How do you price something like this? There are all sorts of stories and actual factual history that goes along with the island.” INSIDE Classified............................................23 Education.............................................6 Lifestyle..............................................15 News....................................................2

Arlington man charged in connection with Woodbridge double homicide

An Arlington man has been arrested and charged with felony murder and robbery in connection with a double homicide in Woodbridge on Nov. 4, Prince William County police said. Officers responded to the 16800 block of Brandy Moor Loop in Woodbridge at 5:55 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 4, to investigate a shooting, Prince William County police said in a news release. When police arrived, they located

two men in a vehicle that had driven over a curb into a wooded area, police said. The two men had been shot and were pronounced dead at the scene, police said. Tuesday police announced that detectives identified and arrested a suspect in connection with the fatal shootings. The police investigation revealed that Daunte Anthony Moten and Israel Gamez Jr. made arrangements

to meet Christopher Jermaine Williams and a fourth person, who police identified only as a 22-year-old man to sell a pair of shoes, police said in a news release. Sometime during the encounter, Moten and Gamez attempted to rob Williams and the other man, police said. Williams and Gamez, 18, of Stafford were shot and killed during the encounter, police said. At some point, Moten and the oth-

er victim left the vehicle and fled the area on foot, police said. Moten was later identified by detectives “in connection to planning for and being present during the robbery attempt,” the police news release said. Moten, 22, of Arlington, was arrested and charged with felony homicide. The investigation continues and additional charges are pending, police said.

Police announce arrest in connection with officer-involved shooting in Woodbridge

A 29-year-old Woodbridge man was arrested and charged Thursday with attempted capital murder of a law-enforcement officer and other charges in connection with the Nov. 4 officer-involved shooting on Laurel Street. Brett Anthony Monteith, 29, of

1106 Laurel St., in Woodbridge, remains in the hospital recovering from the gunshot wounds he sustained Sunday, Nov. 4, when officers shot him after he opened fire on arriving police officers with a rifle, hitting a police cruiser in several plac-

es, according to a Prince William County police news release. Police arrived in the Woodbridge neighborhood about 5:40 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 4, after a 911 caller reported hearing shots fired, Prince William County Police Chief Barry

Barnard said. Prince William County police “were basically ambushed” by a man armed with a “long-gun rifle” who was shooting at other houses when they arrived, Police Chief Barry Barnard said.

for my summer vacation,” she said. The main house is roughly 3,000 square feet. Pampuch said it had at least four bedrooms. “I just remember the wood and the stairs and the parrot,” she said. “Somebody had lost a parrot and it escaped to the island. They could hear it but they couldn’t catch it until the wintertime when all the leaves were off the trees. “There were antiques galore all over the house. He was quite the collector. I remember jade and blowfish and all these crazy statues,” she said. “I remember the pool and the screened-in pool house,” Pampuch said. Fry had dug the pool himself. Wesley Fry worked out a deal with the base to get electricity run out to the island via an underwater cable, and they had water from a well. “Erma was a lot of fun. Wesley was more quiet. He was quite a bit older than she,” Pampuch said. “Apparently they used to have just raging parties out here,” Letendre said. “I’ve heard those stories,” said Miss Rivershore Captain Mark Perry, who ferried a group of visitors to the island recently for a tour. The island needed a new seawall, and the Frys couldn’t afford it so they sold it to a religious group in 1979, Pampuch said. The group planned to use it as a retreat. That never materialized and the island became overgrown.

Letendre, Ford and Roberto Garcia, another Weichert team member, proved the island has likely changed since Pampuch and her family visited nearly five decades ago. The main house, guest house, caretaker’s house and boat house are still standing, but the island has made great progress in reclaiming the buildings. Ivy wraps around and into most of the structures, which are no longer habitable. The columns and front porch of the main house have fallen down and there is a tree through the back of the house. The pool behind the house is still visible, and its screened-in pool house remains. Erma Fry’s old Saab, which they used to transport groceries and supplies from a dock to the houses, is still there. It’s visible through a forest of bamboo, which is not native to Virginia. Where there was once green grass and breathtaking views of the Potomac, now underbrush and tons of briars obstruct most of the view. The realtors leading the tour carried machetes to cut through the brush, briars and bamboo. “Apparently there were a bunch of fruit trees out here,” said Letendre. “People said it was almost tropical. It’s hard to believe that was here.” “I feel it every time I come out here – it was and will again be paradise,” Ford said. For more information about the island, contact Nick Letendre at 703-581-5928 or visit www.weichert. com/79089523.

ISLAND, from page 1 In 1896, however, there was a test flight of an unmanned steam-powered aircraft, designed by Samuel Langley, that was witnessed and photographed by Alexander Graham Bell from a house boat just off the island. The aircraft, which had a wingspan of 14 feet, achieved a speed of about 25 mph and a height of about 100 feet. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, the island held a clubhouse for a hunting club to which Presi-

In 1958, Dr. Wesley Fry and his wife Erma bought the island. Fry was a retired Navy surgeon who likely lived in the town of Quantico. They used the island as a vacation home, said Carol Ann Pampuch of Wilmington, Delaware. Pampuch’s parents were friends of the Frys. Pampuch, who was a child at the time, said she knew it as “Aunt Erma’s island.” Her family spent three one-week vacations there in the 1970s. “I remember bragging to my friends that I was going to an island

Lateef wins messy race for school board chair SCHOOL BOARD, from page 1

PAC an ‘assault on the integrity of the vote’

On Wednesday, Nov. 7, Satterwhite held a press conference in front of the school division’s Edward L. Kelly Leadership Center with two Republican members of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors. They called for an investigation into the controversial PAC, which was apparently formed by Harry Wiggins, a former chairman of the Prince William County Democratic Committee. Satterwhite said the placement of the PAC’s red signs at polling places declaring “Republicans for Stanley Bender,” was an 11th-hour ploy to confuse GOP voters and “an assault of the integrity of the vote.” Satterwhite has been a Gainesville District school board representative since 2012 and was endorsed in the chairman’s race by the Prince William County Republican Committee. The school board is officially non-partisan, but candidates can and often do run with political party endorsements. There’s no indication of party ties next to the candidates’ names on the ballot, which is why party volunteers hand out sample ballots outside the polls to inform voters about their party’s picks for various elected posts, including seats on the school board. Supervisor Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville, read a statement during the press conference on Satterwhite’s behalf: “On October 24, Mr. Harry Wiggins, who is a three-time recent chairman of the Prince William Democratic Committee, created a political action committee with the intent to mislead voters. It was named ‘Republicans for

Dr. Babur Lateef

Alyson Satterwhite

Stanley Bender.’ Virginia has a lot of requirements to create a PAC,” she said, “and additional requirements when you use the name of another candidate for the creation of your PAC.” Lawson said the PAC’s application was not filed 21 days before the election, as required, and did not supply evidence that the candidate – Bender – was aware his name was being used as part of the PAC’s name, as is also required by Virginia elections law. Bender confirmed on Friday he was never contacted by Wiggins – or anyone else – in connection with the PAC and never gave permission for his name to be used. The group questioned how Bender, who ran as an independent and raised no money for his campaign, managed to win 14,704 votes or about 9.63 percent of the total ballots cast. Lateef won 72,476 votes, or 47.46 percent, while Satterwhite garnered 63,785 votes, or 41.77 percent. The PAC’s “statement of organization,” which the Virginia Department of Elections emailed to Prince William County Republican Committee Chairman Bill Card on Election Day, lists Wiggins as the PAC’s treasurer.

Wiggins has so far not returned calls for comment. The Prince William Times filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the PAC’s statement of organization on Election Day but had not yet received a copy from the state department of elections as of press time. Lawson went on to accuse Wiggins of previous attempts to mislead voters and said he had called Republican elected officials disparaging names. Both Lateef and Prince William County Democratic Committee Chairman Don Shaw distanced themselves from the PAC and Wiggins soon after the red “Republicans for Stanley Bender” signs surfaced at several polling places on Election Day. On Wednesday, Nov. 7, Lateef issued a statement, saying: “My campaign does not condone those actions and we strongly condemn them, period.” Shaw said he reached out to state elections officials for more information. “After hearing the allegations that Harry Wiggins established the PAC, I reached out to the Department of Elections in Richmond for more information, [and] received confirmation from them that Harry Wiggins was responsible for establishing the PAC,” Shaw said in an emailed statement. “Mr. Wiggins’ actions were not sanctioned by the Prince William County Democratic Committee and do not represent our values,” Shaw added. “Whether it is dirty tricks and deception, fake robocalls, not providing enough voting machines at the polling places, or other actions intended to suppress or confuse the vote, those actions go against everything we stand for.” Lateef’s win means he will finish Sawyers’ term as chairman, which expires Dec. 31, 2019. All eight seats on the Prince William County School Board, including the chairman’s post, are up for re-election in November 2019. Reach Karen Chaffraix at kchaffraix@fauquier.com

Man charged in connection with September assault on PRTC bus driver

A man accused of assaulting a bus driver in September has been arrested, Prince William County police said. Officers were called to the area of Minnieville Road and Prince William Parkway at 8:15 p.m. on Sept. 11 to investigate the assault of a Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission bus driver, Prince William County police said in a news release.  The driver, a 55-year-old man, told police that he was operating a PRTC bus in that area when "he observed an unknown male running alongside the bus," according to the police news release. The bus stopped at the intersection

due to traffic, the man "began banging on the bus and demanded that the door be opened," police said. The driver refused and the man then "stood in front of the bus blocking it from moving," police said. The man then returned to the bus door, kicked out one of the lower windows on the door, reached inside and opened the door and then entered the bus and sprayed the driver with an unknown substance causing minor injuries to the driver, police said. The suspect ran away, but was later identified by police as Andre Jon Richardson. On Nov. 7, officers responded to the area of Lomond Drive and Sudley Road at 10:15 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 7, to investigate a dispute between a taxi cab driver and a customer,

later identified as Richardson, Prince William County police said. Richardson, 30, of no fixed address, was arrested and charged with malicious wounding and destruction of property. He was held without bond and has a court date on Nov. 20.

Bristow SAC employee charged with assaulting boy, 9

An employee of the School After Care program at a Bristow elementary school has been charged with assaulting a 9-year-old boy in his care, Prince William County police said. Prince William County police officers, in conjunction with Child Protective Services, responded to Victory Elementary School, at 2001 Tygart Lake Drive in Bristow, just before 6:30 p.m.

on Tuesday, Nov. 6, to investigate the incident, Prince William County police said in a news release. Police said the victim, a 9-year-old boy, accidentally stepped on a 9-yearold classmate’s foot and a SAC employee, identified as Christopher Aaron Dean, then “approached the victim and intentionally stepped on his foot.” The boy suffered “bruising and other markings on the top of his foot” as a result of the incident, police said. Dean is not a Prince William County school employee, police said. School After Care is provided to the school through an unrelated company, AlphaBEST. Dean, 28, of Manassas, was charged with one misdemeanor count of assault and battery.

Democrats win control of Manassas City Council Staff Reports

For the first time in City of Manassas history, Democrats have won control of the Manassas City Council by capturing two of three open seats in the Nov. 6 election.  Incumbent Republican Councilman Marc Aveni lost his bid for re-election, while Democratic incumbent Councilman Ken Elston won re-election along with fellow Democrat Michelle Davis-Younger. Republican Theresa Ellis also won a place on the council and will join fellow Republican Councilmember Ian Lovejoy and Mayor Hal Parrish. The balance of power on the

council tips to the Democrats with the city’s governing board now split four to two in the Democrats' favor, or four to three, counting Parrish, who canCouncilman not vote on fiscal Ken Elston matters, such as the budget. Amalfi Arias, a Republican political newcomer, came up short in the Nov. 6 contest, as did Democrat Rex Parr, who ran unsuccessfully for a council seat in 2016.

The City of Manassas school system was a hot topic during this election season. The city’s nine schools are underperforming compared to the larger Michelle-Davis Prince William Younger County system, and several schools are in need of major renovations and/or replacement. The city council has been working with members of the city’s school board since last spring to devise a funding plan for the school division for the

coming years but has yet to reach an agreement. One education-related question that came up during the candidates’ debate Oct. 30 was the option of ceding respon- Theresa Coates Ellis sibility for the city’s schools over to Prince William County. This would require giving up city status; the City of Manassas would become a town instead.  All candidates were united in saying they would try to avoid that option.

Manassas, Prince William schools earn Virginia Purple Star Awards Staff Reports The Virginia Department of Education and the Virginia Council on the Interstate Compact on the Educational Opportunity for Military Children have recognized 59 schools—including one in Manassas and two in Prince William County—as “Purple Star” schools. The Purple Star designation is awarded to military-friendly schools that have demonstrated their commitment to meeting the needs of military-connected students and their families. “Virginia is proud to have one of the nation’s largest numbers of military-connected students in our schools, but we also know that repeated relocations or separation when a parent is deployed can be challenging for military families,” said Gov. Ralph Northam said in a statement. “I commend the students, educators, and administrators at these 59 schools for leading by example and working to create supportive learning environments.” Among the 59 schools recognized were Weems Elementary School in Manassas and Mary G. Porter Traditional School and Sonnie Penn Elementary School in Prince William County.

“As a former Marine, I recognize and appreciate the sacrifices required of each member of a military family,” Virginia Secretary of Education Atif Qarni said in a statement. “When we celebrate schools for their commitment to these military-connected students and families, we also celebrate and support the efforts of our Armed Forces.” To qualify for a Purple Star, schools must have a trained staff member designated as a primary point of contact for military families and students. The point of contact also serves as a liaison between the school and local military communities. Schools must also demonstrate their commitment to meeting the needs of military students by providing resources and programming on issues important to military families, such as transitions and academic planning. “Virginia is committed to minimizing the impact of the inevitable disruptions military-connected students experience as their families move from assignment to assignment in service to our country,” said Superintendent of Public Instruction James Lane, who also serves as chairman of the Virginia Council. “These schools have em-

braced this commitment by earning Purple Star designations, and I encourage every school to follow their lead.”   This is the first year VDOE and the Virginia Council have designated Purple Star schools. Schools earning the award receive a Virginia Purple Star commemorative coin to display and are listed as a Purple Star school on the VDOE Military Families webpage. Purple Star schools retain the designation for three years before being required to reapply.  Virginia is home to several of the largest and most important military installations in the nation. The Defense Manpower Data Center estimates that there are more than 73,000 school age military-associated children of active duty members in Virginia. The Virginia Council on the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children was created in 2009 to consider any and all matters related to the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children. The compact expresses the commitment of participating states to removing barriers to academic success for children of military families.

Virtual High School earns place among top online learning sites Staff Reports Prince William County Public Schools Virtual High School recently joined the Digital Learning Collaborative, a membership group of 24 organizations including school districts, state agencies, non-profit organizations, and companies designed to serve as a resource, clearinghouse, and community for information about online, blended, and digital learning, according to a school division news release. PWCS is one of 12 online school district programs in the nation invited to be a founding member of the Digital

Learning Collaborative. “Although online learning has been used in K-12 education for more than 20 years, and digital technology for several decades, practices and policies are constantly evolving,” said John Watson, founder of the Evergreen Education Group, a research group on digital learning which announced the public launch of the Collaborative. “No school, state, or provider has all the answers; therefore, we have countless opportunities to learn from one another.” “It’s an honor to be part of the Digital Learning Collaborative,”

said Kenneth Bassett, director of the PWCS Office of Student Learning. “PWCS has a proven track record of success with our virtual high school. The Collaborative is an outstanding way to share best practices and contribute to the dialogue in the exciting field of educational technology.” Virtual High School @ PWCS serves students in multiple ways, including helping students to improve a grade, recover credit, lighten their course load, graduate early or on time, and meet the state requirement for an online course. Students can study at their own pace, removing some barri-

ers for those students who work, or are sidelined at home for illness or another reason. Online instruction helps schools reduce crowding by enabling students to take courses outside the school day in exchange for early release from or late arrival to school. PWCS began the Virtual High School @ PWCS in 2001. Twenty-eight full-credit courses are offered in fall, spring, and summer. The course pass rate average is 93 percent and the Standards of Learning pass average is 85 percent, typically equal to or better than “brick and mortar” pass rates.

Music teacher enters 2019 race for school board By Jill Palermo

Elementary, Parkside Middle and Osbourn Park High Schools while growing up in the Manassas area of the county. Zargarpur’s own children, ages 21, 18 and 13, attended Marshall, Benton Middle and Osbourn Park High School. Her oldest two have already graduated; the youngest is enrolled at Benton. Zargarpur holds a bachelor’s degree in music (flute performance) and a master’s degree in education from Mary Washington University. As a candidate, Zargarpur said she’s most concerned about reducing large class sizes, addressing school overcrowding and improving school security and teacher pay. But she also said school board policies and spending decisions on other issues are equally impactful and are sometimes made without sufficient teacher input. As an example, Zargarpur cited the school division’s adoption of “standards-based grading,” now a requirement at all Prince William schools. The practice aims to ensure students are graded primarily on whether they learn coursework objectives and less so on tasks not related to subject mastery. The problem, Zargarpur said, is that too many teachers remain unsure about how to make the strategy work in their classrooms. “When [school boards] make pol-

Times Staff Writer

Lisa Zargarpur, a lifelong Prince William County resident and mother of three, says school boards need a teacher’s perspective when it comes to making decisions about school division policies and spending priorities. That’s why Zargarpur, who’s also an elementary school music teacher, is running for the Coles District seat on the Prince William County School Board in 2019. Zargarpur, 48, is the first candidate to formally launch a campaign challenging a sitting incumbent. Candidates for school board are officially nonpartisan but can run with a party endorsement. Zargarpur said her values align most closely with that of the Democratic Party, which is why she’s seeking the local committee’s nod to challenge incumbent Coles representative Willie Deutsch, who was endorsed by the local Republican committee in 2015. It’s not clear if Deutsch will seek re-election. He said he’s still deciding on his plans for 2019. Teachers working for Prince William County Public Schools cannot serve on the school board. But Zargarpur teaches in Fairfax County, which makes her eligible for elected office in her home county of Prince William, where she attended Coles

icies, sometimes but they’re not always well-thought-out … and when teachers [have] concerns, I wonder why that falls on deaf ears,” she said. “In the meantime, those new [practices] are part of how [teachers] are being [evaluated].” The school board needs to be receptive to teacher input to improve processes and solve problems more efficiently and effectively, she said. “That teacher voice is so important because we’re the ones who do the job,” she added. Although the need to reduce class sizes has been recognized for years, there’s not been enough discussion on how too-large classes affect students and instruction, Zargarpur said, because teachers aren’t part of the conversation. If they were, they would likely tell elected officials how their jobs are made exponentially more difficult when classes surpass 30 students, as is routine in the county’s middle and high schools. “It’s not like you can’t manage it, but there’s so much more going on [in the classroom],” Zargarpur said. “Instead of differentiating for four or five groups, you’re doing it for six or seven.” Zargarpur said her own children have endured middle and high school classes so crowded that desks were removed due to a lack of space. Regarding teacher pay, Zargarpur notes that Prince William schools

pay less than school divisions to our north, and that the teacher retirement system doesn’t work for career-switchers, many of whom are not able to work long enough to qualify for benefits. Both are challenges to teacher recruiting and retention. All will require more resources, and Zargarpur said the county’s school board must work more effectively with the board of supervisors and state lawmakers to stress the importance of those needs. “Sometimes, I feel that people forget is the job is actually about people and they’re very little, some of them only 5 years old,” Zargarpur said. “…The reality is that we’re affecting some very small people and could affect their lives forever.” Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

Without native predators like the gray wolf and cougar, hunting is the primary factor to limit deer populations. Suburban housing developments, built in formerly forested and fielded areas, provide ideal winter feeding grounds for deer. One deer eats about six pounds of vegetation daily, so it does not take many to decimate a landscape. For people managing landscapes in areas with many deer, there are several possible approaches to reducing damage: Fencing- Where it is practical, fencing is the most effective method of reducing deer damage. Fences need to be at least 8 feet tall, but deer are also amazingly adept at going under fences rather than jumping over them. Deer Resistant Plants- Lists of deer resistant plants are widely available. For example, boxwoods and pears are often used in landscapes because deer will rarely eat them. RepellentsResearch at the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories has determined that there are several highly effective repellents on the market today. We have found that one or two applications of our winter repellent can protect a plant for the winter.

SPARK funds sensory rooms at Loch Lomond, T. Clay Wood Staff Reports Administrators at Loch Lomond and T. Clay Wood elementary schools sought and received innovative grant funding from SPARK, the PWCS education foundation, to create sensory spaces in their schools. A sensory space is a special room designed to improve social-emotional behavior and provide a therapeutic experience for students, usually through special lighting, music, furniture, and equipment. Visiting a sensory space for a brief time helps students with autism, emotional disabilities, and other special needs calm and focus themselves, so they are better prepared to

learn and interact with others, school officials said. A trained staff member in the room will help students to work through any difficult emotions. “Our goal is to support all our students,” said Andrew Buchheit, principal of T. Clay Wood Elementary School. “This sensory room is another opportunity for us to support and teach our students. It should help some of our students who need additional time, movement, and diverse types of sensory interaction learn to self-regulate their emotions and behavior. We believe in all our students, but the inability of some students to remain calm inhibits their learning. We are hopeful that the sensory room will help those

students who need this extra support and time. In addition, every single one of our classrooms has been given resources and items for a ‘calm down’ corner in their own classroom.” Loch Lomond is creating five sensory spaces within three classrooms, and space in the office area and in the school counselor’s room to give students a safe, quiet place to calm themselves. A team of special and general education teachers, administrators, the school counselor, an occupational therapist, and a school psychologist have collaborated to create Loch Lomond’s sensory spaces. “The spaces will have different areas to meet the needs of the students

who are visiting,” said Loch Lomond Principal Kimberly Werle. “There will be an active area, a calming area, and several types of sensory activities and equipment. Sensory spaces will provide areas where all our students can receive positive behavioral supports. We will share with parents how their child is using the sensory space and what areas have proven beneficial for their child so these can be replicated at home where appropriate,” said Werle. The sensory room at T. Clay Wood is housed in a central location in the school. Buchheit plans to open the sensory space to all students, so this initiative has the potential to benefit 900 students.

A perfect pair for a swap One woman’s kidney gives another man new life By Anita L. Sherman Community Editor

Thanksgiving is next week. Many of us will gather around family tables to celebrate with relatives and friends. Others will head to restaurants for this annual holiday. It is a special time of the year when thoughts focus on blessings, giving our burdens a lessened priority. For two Fauquier residents, this Thanksgiving is especially meaningful.

More recently, she created the “Be the Change Foundation,” which encourages women to learn about building and enhancing their businesses. It’s about empowerment and inspiration.

Lester knew Clyde from their professional gatherings but was surprised and delighted when she approached him with her plan to give him one of her kidneys since she knew he needed one. From there, the two underwent a series of tests to see if they were a match. They weren’t, but with a willing donor and a willing recipient, there was an opportunity.

Let’s exchange

The MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute performs more kidney transplants than all other

D.C. metro programs combined. With more than 50 years of experience, they offer a full array of transplant options. One is the “Paired Kidney Exchange Program.” It assists donor and recipient pairs who are incompatible or poorly matched with each other find another donor and recipient pair or pairs with whom they can exchange kidneys. With Clyde’s willingness to donate one of her kidneys, it put Lester higher on the list to receive one. His wait would be shortened considerably. There is no cost to participate in the Paired Kidney Exchange Program, and there are no payments or compensation of any kind for participating.

According to the MedStar website, the fastest way to receive a kidney transplant is a living donor kidney transplant. This may make it possible for/patients to stop dialysis PHASE DISRUPTION MESSAGE sooner or even to avoid starting dialysis. Lester was spending a good portion of every week undergoing dialysis treatments. He hadLANGUAGE been on dialysis for a year before the transplant. His kidneys were failing him.

Dredging of about 17,000 cubic yards of silt is underway in Neabsco Creek. Prince William County allocating a $750,000 grant to make it possible.

Neabsco Creek dredging underway There’s an estimated 17,000 cubic yards of silt clogging the channel in Neabsco Creek. To put that in perspective, one cubic yard of saturated silt can typically weigh up to 3,000 pounds. That means 51 million pounds of soil or 25,500 tons of silt needs to be removed in order to maintain the channel and ensure that boats can continue to safely navigate the creek. It would take about 6,800 full-sized pickup trucks to haul away that much silt. The Prince William Board of County Supervisors recently allocated a $750,000 grant to dredge the channel and improve boat passage. The good news for the estimated 1,000 recreational boats that are docked and stored along Neabsco Creek near Leesylvania State Park is that the project will ensure that the channel remains navigable. The other good news is that the dredging recently started, meaning the work will be completed during the offseason so that boaters will be able to use the waterway connecting to the Potomac River during the next boating season. As the dredging continues, the silt will be loaded onto barges that will then be offloaded into dump trucks at a marina that is under construction near Neabsco Road. From there, the silt will be taken to the Prince William County Landfill Complex. In early March, the U.S. Coast Guard removed their navigational

markers from the channel and installed danger signs in their place, which signaled to boaters that the channel may be unsafe. According to a channel survey completed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the depth of the creek channel is currently at less than four feet in some sections, and it had authorized dredging to 5 feet in these sections. The Industrial Development Authority of Prince William County, which is in place to promote economic development in the county, will administer the grant. The boating activity at the four marinas along the creek supports 12 marina-related businesses and 50-100 jobs depending on the season.  The Neabsco Creek, LLC, which the marina owners formed in July 2018, have hired a dredging contractor. The money for dredging includes the cost of a third-party administrator to oversee operations; and Neabsco Creek, LLC, must receive all permits and approvals necessary for dredging the channel before receiving any funds from the authority. In addition, the LLC members will dredge their marinas, at their expense, in conjunction with the channel dredging.  According to the agreement between the IDA and the Neabsco Creek, LLC, dredging must be completed no later than Jan. 31. – Prince William County

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Gainesville / Prince William Times | November 14, 2018

Every day is Veterans Day It was a touching tribute this year when, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, bells rang out to signal the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. OUR VIEW It was in 1945, World War II veteran Raymond Weeks, recognized as the father of Veterans Day, brought the idea to expand Armistice Day to celebrate all veterans to Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, who gave his support. So while today we know Nov. 11 as Veterans Day, it has its roots in Armistice Day, which is how it is still celebrated in much of the world, thus making this day in particular, marking a century since the guns fell silent, a momentous occasion. The First World War, known then simply as The Great War, had a profound impact on the world we would come to know today. It brought an end to gentlemanly Victorian innocence and ideals; it launched the Soviet Union; it propelled the United States onto the world stage, laying the groundwork of a superpower; it put into place postwar conditions in Germany that would ultimately lead to the rise of Nazism; and it drew lines in the sands of the Middle East that would lead to many of the conflicts we know today. But one thing the “War to End all Wars” failed to do was that: end war. And for us, here in America, we have veterans from many wars to thank. And while Veterans Day is meant to mark those who served and came home, it is right to pause and remember those who did not, and those who still serve. This day, if not every day, it is important

Together, a new start By Margaret Angela Franklin

Woodbridge is the epicenter of the growing diversity of Prince William County and the commonwealth of Virginia. With its diversity in ethnicity, age, economic background and interests, Woodbridge sets the standard for a melting-pot community. GUEST VIEW This is what makes Woodbridge unique. This is what makes Woodbridge great. Regrettably, our current board of county supervisors has both a diversity gap and an economic gap. Therefore, I am calling for a new start. As a candidate for the Woodbridge Magisterial District’s representative on the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, I want to guarantee the diversity of Woodbridge and Prince William County is respected and protected. This means electing board members who understand our residents and ensure they have the economic security many recognized while

to remember we are a nation at war this very moment. Since 2001, we have been at war in Afghanistan. “The Forever War” has been waged long enough that seniors in high school have never known a time when we have not been at war, and it doesn’t appear that will change any time soon. All that has the effect of desensitizing the nation to what we ask, what we expect, the men and women of our armed forces to do on a daily basis. It is easy to forget they are half a world away facing life and death situations while we bicker over dinner, sports or the controversy of the week. It is easy to rattle sabers and make veiled threats globally, or right here at home. It

growing up here and many others moved to the area to achieve. There are four main issues that will help the Woodbridge District create a new start: a renewed focus on economic development and job creation; providing safe and affordable housing to all residents; improving the efficiency of our local transportation system; and, finally, reducing overcrowding in our schools. Economic development is a critical issue throughout Prince William County and more importantly, within the Woodbridge community. We must strive to promote job growth in Woodbridge through commercial development with a keen focus on smart growth that allows for the emergence of large companies while also protecting our mom-and-pop shops. This means attracting a myriad of industries to Woodbridge that appeal to and support our diverse community. Part of that strategy must include working with Northern Virginia Community College to create and develop an innovation hub for startups. Increased economic development spurs residential development. That is why we must ensure that any new residential development within the Woodbridge community will provide and help maintain affordable

is easy to dismiss veterans as damaged goods when they have difficulty reintegrating into society. It is easy to forget. We must be vigilant. We need to make sure our veterans get the treatment they deserve, that they have earned, when they return home. We must hold leadership accountable. We need to require an endgame to our military actions, so that our longest war is not waged with no end. We must return to a time when war was so horrific, it was something to be avoided, not something that is simply a fact of life. This Veterans Day, let’s not put away our concerns and thanks when the day is done and we put away the flag. Every day is Veterans Day.

and diverse housing options for all residents. Increased business and residential development have unfortunately increased local traffic congestion. That is why I will place a heavy emphasis on local transportation needs. While I fully support the long-term goal of extending the Metro into Prince William County, we need immediate relief that will help Woodbridge residents get around the county more safely and more efficiently. We can do this by increasing the number of neighborhoods served by our local transit systems and by guaranteeing that route extensions are a priority for our local transportation system’s strategic plan. Providing safe and efficient local transit options will make residents feel more confident about using the local transit systems, particularly at peak congestion hours. Lastly, increased residential development has caused many of our schools in Woodbridge to become overcrowded. In turn, this has resulted in many of our kids attending classes in trailers. If elected, I will make it a priority to work with the Prince William County School Board to finally provide schools the resources they need to build more schools, improve the infrastructure of existing schools and help make Woodbridge a model

of academic success. These issues are rooted in the growing pains Woodbridge residents grapple with and that the board of county supervisors has failed to adequately address. If elected, I will give renewed attention to each of these issues and others that plague our community. In doing so, together, we will create a new start. The writer is a Democratic candidate for Woodbridge district supervisor on the Prince William County Board of Supervisors.

Fourth quarter surge lifts Brentsville past Marshall 12-6 in playoff opener

SPORTS

‘IT WAS A GRITTY WIN’

By Josh Dorsey

Special to the Times

Patience, discipline and a kicking game. The Brentsville Tigers used all three elements Friday night to execute an improbable come-from-behind 12-6 win over John Marshall in the Class 3 Region B quarterfinals. The Tigers scored nine fourth quarter points in the final 5:07. None of it came easy. “We had to give everything we had to pull this one out. It was a gritty win,” said Brentsville coach Joe Mullinax, whose fourth-seeded Tigers (6-5) advanced to play No. 1 Culpeper (7-4) in Friday’s semifinals. It’s the Tigers’ fourth straight playoff appearance, and third time in four years they’ve won their playoff opener. The Tigers fell behind 6-0 in the first quarter and chipped away at the Justices’ lead, drawing even on Daniel Silva’s second 27-yard field goal with 5:07 left in regulation. The winning points came on senior Alex Whitley’s 4-yard touchdown run with 1:34 left. Whitley received the handoff for a trap run play, and he barreled through a mass of Marshall defenders for the winning points. “I’ve been running that same play since I was a freshman here,” Whitley said. “It has been repetitive to the point where I feel like I can hit it against any team.

NEXT GAME: At Culpeper (7–4) in Class 3 Region B semifinals, Friday, 7 p.m. am so happy for him. It is so great to see hard work pay off.” The drama was far from over as the Tigers followed that with some sharp red zone defense to keep Marshall (4-7) out of the end zone. With less than a minute remaining, a hush came over the orange-clad crowd when Marshall quarterback Aarek Thomas hit receiver Oliver Basnight for a 32-yard touchdown with just 17 seconds remaining. After a holding penalty erased the TD, the Tigers fought off taller Marshall wide receivers to bat away a few last-chance passes towards the end zone. Junior linebacker Yuri Smaltz picked off the Justices’ last pass in back of the end zone.

“We have been in that situation 50 percent of the year with nail-biters,” Whitley said, “so we are used to it.” Offensively, the Tigers were unable to move the ball most of the game, needing a blocked punt to set up Silva’s first 27-yard field goal in the second quarter. Senior linebacker Ashton Shepherd intercepted a pass from Marshall’s Aarek Thomas over the middle and returned it 52 yards to the 7-yard line with just over seven minutes to play. “I am so happy for that kid,” Mullinax said of Shepherd. “He has busted his tail for so long in multiple sports.” Brentsville again failed to get the ball into the end zone, but Silva salvaged the drive with his second field goal to make it 6-6.

Greyson Braun ripped off a 22-yard run, followed by a 15-yard run from Whitley to set themselves up inside the 10-yard line. Whitley, of course, then finished the drive with the winning touchdown. “We aren’t going to out-athlete anybody,” Mullinax said. “We don’t have a ton of speed on the perimeter, but if we execute well through [all three] facets then we have a shot.”

Tyquan Brown and the Freedom Eagles are the last Prince William County team left in the Cass 6 playoffs and host Hayfield Friday night.

The Freedom Eagles (10-1) held their sixth opponent to seven points or fewer in eliminating Hylton 42-7 in the Region 6C quarterfinals. Also shining was senior running back Tyquan Brown, who carried a season-high 33 times for 270 yards and a touchdown. The No. 2-seeded Eagles avenged last year’s 45-28 loss to Hylton in the region semifinals, and next host No. 3 Hayfield (10-1) in Friday’s region quarterfinals. The winner will face the South

SHARKS CHOMP INTO STATE SEMIS Colgan volleyball needs two wins for historic title By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

A.J. Pitts (left), Alyssa Andrews and the Colgan Sharks blew out Westfield to advance to the state semifinals.

Considering the school opened in 2016, what the Colgan volleyball team is doing is mind-boggling. The third-year Sharks advanced to the Class 6 semifinals with a dominant performance in a 25-17, 2513, 25-12 victory over Westfield in the Class 6 quarterfinals Saturday at home in Manassas. The Region C champs allowed only 42 points in winning its 22nd match in a row. Senior outside hitter Hannah Crawley said the Sharks’ commitment to defense is helping fuel their potential state title run. “It’s all about the teamwork and playing for every ball. Nothing hits the floor,” said Crawley. “Going all out.

You give it everything you have.” Colgan (26-3) took on Region 6D champion Chantilly on Tuesday in the Class 6 semifinals. The state final is Friday at 8 p.m. at William & Mary vs. the First Colonial-Frank Cox winner. Interestingly, all four quarterfinal winners swept their opponents 3-0, potentially setting up competitive semifinals. Against Westfield, Madison Bowser led Colgan with 15 kills while Hannah Crawley had eight with Testimony Garrison and Alyssa Andrews adding five each. Setter Kristin Lough amassed 32 assists. Defensively, Bowser and Andrews had two blocks each while Sydney Thaxton had 13 digs. Crawley added eight digs and Garrison had seven.

Prince William County’s fastest man is a Shark named Lentz By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Colgan’s Bryce Lentz and Woodbridge’s Laura Webb were fifth and seventh, respectively, at the Class 6 cross country meet at Great Meadows in The Plains, while Brentsville’s Abigail Seigel was 11th in the

Class 3 girls race. They led all Prince William County runners and earned medals. Lentz took fifth in 16 minutes, 31 seconds, while Webb was seventh in 19:20 and Seigel 11th in 19:28. Webb took a state medal for the second consecutive season. She was fifth last fall in 18:59 and 39th in

2016 (19:42). Seigel, a Brentsville junior, made a huge leap in Class 3 this season, taking nearly a minute off her 36th place time of 20:36 in 2017. Also in Class 6, Osbourn’s Zach Nowak took 29th Saturday in 16:57 with Patriot’s Justin Sriver 37th in 17:07. Sriver helped the Pioneers finish seventh in the boys standings with 62 points behind champion Woodson’s 72. No other Prince William Class 6 teams had enough runners to log team scores, but Brentsville’s girls placed fourth in Class 3 (144 points) behind champion Hidden Valley (35), while the Tigers took eighth in the boys competition (185) behind champion Western Albemarle (21).

For Patriot, Jacob Hamacher placed 40th (17:11) with Michael Speeney 51st (17:25), Ryan Hamacher 52nd (17:25) and Liam Polhamus 62nd (17:38). Other girls finishers included Forest Park’s Catherine Gregory, who was 30th (19:55) in Class 6. Brentsville’s Sarah James took 29th (20:15) with Kendal Vasquez 30th (20:16), Meredith Crockett 38th (20:40) and Rachel Simmons 61st (21:43). Andrew Rice led Brentsville’s boys in 22nd (16:46). Teammate Sam Llaneza followed in 45th (17:24) with Colin McNally 51st (17:36), Patrick Broemmel 55th (17:40) and Andrew Broemmel 60th (17:57).

gift is the perfect choice, but more often it’s the one-of-a-kind, homemade present that hits home”

Gifts from the heart By Robin Earl contributing writer

Now that Halloween is in the rearview mirror, it’s officially OK to start thinking about the Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa holidays. And don’t forget Festivus! Gift-giving is inevitably part of the season. The joy of flawlessly matching a gift with a loved one makes the holiday more than a mere gift exchange; it is an art. Money doesn’t matter. Really. Whether it’s from the Salvation Army or Tiffany’s, if a gift is right for that unique recipient, then it’s like a star on top of a Christmas tree — perfect. Sometimes the latest trendy gift is the perfect choice, but more often it’s the one-of-a-kind, homemade present that hits home. Kudos to the handy folks who can knit a tea cozy with

Aunt Mabel’s favorite cocker spaniel emblazoned on it. But if you are not so inclined, our county is blessed with handy folks aplenty who are willing and able to help you out. Some of these folks will be displaying their creations at fairs and shows throughout November and December. Cathy Sylcox and Barbara Jacobs, former science teachers at Cedar Lee Middle School, opened Sew Pretty Presents. After teaching nearly every child in the southern end of the county for years, Sylcox said, “We needed something to do after we retired.” They displayed their creations at a craft fair at Flatbeds and Tailfins in Remington on Nov. 10. Among the offerings were homemade dolls, doll beds and instant playhouses—with windows—that can be draped over a card table. Carina and Steve Wheat, owners

of Rustic Mod, sell their unique home decor at local craft fairs. Carina said, “On the gift-giving spectrum, there are gift cards at one end and thoughtful, handmade gifts at the other. And handmade gifts are even more special when they’re personalized.” She suggests, “If you’re looking for a unique gift or shopping for someone who is impossible to buy for, find a good craft show. My advice is to start shopping early, especially if you’re hoping to order a custom or personalized product. You will need to allow the vendor time to create your one-of-akind gift and then ship it to you. In our case, for example, we typically need seven to 10 days to complete a custom order, maybe even a little longer during the busy holiday season.” If you’re looking for a craft show in the Manassas area, check out the Old Town Manassas Christmas Market and Holiday Craft Fair on Dec. 15, from noon to 4 p.m. at Harris Pavilion, 9201 Center St., in Manassas. In Woodbridge, the annual holiday craft fair will be held at Gar-Field High School, 14000 Smoketown Road, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 8.

Doing

A customer considers the choices presented by Rustic Mod at last weekend’s craft fair at Flatbeds and Tailfins in Remington.

Sometimes the perfect gift doesn’t come wrapped with a bow. There are times when an “experience” is the best choice. It can be challenging to fit the Kennedy Center under the tree, but wouldn’t a play or a concert make a welcome change? Closer to home, the Hylton Performing Arts Center in Manassas has a full schedule of events perfect for the holiday season, including productions of “The Nutcracker” by Virginia National Ballet, and Manassas Ballet Theatre in November and December.

Holiday shoppers will be able to buy the gift of naming one of 12 new species recently discovered in nature reserves in South America. These new-toscience species include a blue-eyed yellow frog, speckled red and green frogs, orchids, a trap jaw ant, a forest mouse, a worm-like caecilian, and a big-eyed red salamander.  Bids are accepted by phone and online. All proceeds directly protect the habitat of the specific plant or critter, helping save them from extinction.

Northern Virginia Ballet’s production of “The Nutcracker” Nov. 24, concerts and other cultural events abound.

The gourmet cooking class is for groups of 10, by advance registration. The experience is part demo, part hands on, and appropriate for the seasoned chef or the novice. Consider your loved one and choose carefully: the gift of an introductory class — acting, tennis, karate, horseback riding, yoga, photography — could be the catalyst for a new passion.

Helping

It’s easy to forget that the holidays are not universally joyous for everyone. For overburdened working parents or caregivers, the added obligations that come with the gift-giving season are anything but welcome. You can lighten the load for a harried friend or relative by arranging for a

Volunteers sought for community park cleanups Staff Reports There will be a park cleanup and educational event from 9 a.m. to noon Nov. 17 at Veterans Memorial Park in Woodbridge. There will also be a cleanup at that same time at Jefferson Park, an undeveloped park in Woodbridge. The Prince William County Public Works Department, the Department of Parks and Recreation and Tourism, the Woodbridge District Supervisor's Office, along with the Prince William Soil and Water Conservation District and Keep Prince William Beautiful are coordinating

the events. About 85-100 volunteers are needed to get the job done, said Deb Oliver, spokeswoman for the Public Works Department. “This is going to be a really large cleanup,” she said. “We’re going to take on Veterans Park, the area around Marumsco Acres Lake and Jefferson Park.” Marumsco Creek at Veterans Memorial Park and nearby Jefferson Park serve as a natural collection points for trash, mainly plastics, that need to be cleaned up, said Woodbridge District Supervisor’s Chief of Staff Zoe Vitter.

“This is a cleanup, but it’s also part of a larger plan to reduce plastic use in the county, to clean up plastics. There will also be an educational component … to demonstrate what plastics do in our environment, and more specifically, in our county,” she said. People who aren't willing to get quite as dirty will also be able to help in the cause. “We have opportunities for all different levels,” Vitter said. “We’re going to send people out in groups. Depending on how many volunteers we get registered, we’ll have them go out to different spots as a group.” There will also be an educational component at the Veterans Park site.

“We’re going to add in a display at the event to raise awareness about plastics in the community. Plastics wind up in our streams and they flow into the Potomac River, which flows into the Chesapeake Bay, which flows into the ocean,” Oliver said. “We want to try and educate the community about using reusable bottles as opposed to continuously buying single-use plastic bottles, especially water bottles.” People who help at the cleanup should wear sunblock and clothes they can get dirty. The organizations will provide gloves, bags, snacks and refillable water bottles. It’s also important for people to wear shoes that lace up. Those interested in volunteering need to register.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR REVISION OF RATE ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: RIDER US-2, SCOTT, WHITEHOUSE, AND WOODLAND SOLAR POWER STATIONS CASE NO. PUR-2018-00167 •Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion”) has applied to update its Rider US-2 by which it recovers the costs of three solar power stations. •Dominion requests $16,251,497 for its 2019 Rider US-2. According to Dominion, this amount would increase a typical residential customer’s bill using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $0.07. •A Hearing Examiner appointed by the Commission will hear the case on March 19, 2019. •Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/case. On October 3, 2018, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion” or “Company”), pursuant to § 56-585.1 A 6 of the Code of Virginia, filed with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) an annual update with respect to the Company’s rate adjustment clause, Rider US-2 (“Application”). Through its Application, the Company seeks to recover costs associated with (i) the Scott Solar Facility, a 17 megawatt (“MW”) (nominal alternating current (“AC”)) facility located in Powhatan County; (ii) Whitehouse Solar Facility, a 20 MW AC facility located in Louisa County; and (iii) Woodland Solar Facility, a 19 MW AC facility located in Isle of Wight County (collectively, “2016 Solar Projects” or “Projects”). In Case No. PUE-2015-00104, the Commission approved construction of the 2016 Solar Projects. In conjunction therewith, the Commission also approved a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider US-2, which allowed Dominion to recover costs associated with the development of the Projects, including projected construction work in progress and any associated allowance for funds used during construction. In this proceeding, Dominion has asked the Commission to approve Rider US-2 for the rate year beginning September 1, 2019, and ending August 31, 2020 (“2019 Rate Year”). The two key components of the proposed total revenue requirement for the 2019 Rate Year are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-Up Factor. The Company is requesting a Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement of $9,212,151 and an Actual Cost True-Up Factor revenue requirement of $7,039,346. Thus, the Company is requesting a total revenue requirement of $16,251,497 for service rendered during the 2019 Rate Year. For purposes of calculating the Projected Cost Recovery Factor in this case, Dominion proposes a rate of return on common equity (“ROE”) of 9.2%, which it states is supported by the Commission’s Final Order in Case No. PUR-2017-00038. For purposes of calculating the Actual Cost True-Up Factor, the Company utilized an ROE of 9.6% for the months of January 2017 through March 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUE-2015-00104, an ROE of 9.4% for the period of April 1, 2017, through November 28, 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its Order in Case No. PUE-2016-00113, and an ROE of 9.2% for the period of November 29, 2017, through December 31, 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its 2017 ROE Order. If the proposed Rider US-2 for the 2019 Rate Year is approved, the impact on customer bills would depend on the customer’s rate schedule and usage. According to Dominion, implementation of its proposed Rider US-2 on September 1, 2019, would increase the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by approximately $0.07. The Company proposes a change in the methodology for the calculation of a certain allocation factor beginning in 2018 to recognize the output of certain non-utility generators to be used to allocate cost responsibility to the Virginia jurisdiction. In addition, with the exception of the removal of certain Federal and retail choice customers from the Virginia jurisdiction, the Company indicates it has calculated the proposed Rider US-2 rates in accordance with the same methodology as used for rates approved by the Commission in the most recent Rider US-2 proceeding, Case No. PUR-2017-00127. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Application and supporting documents for the details of 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. The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing on March 19, 2019, at 10 a.m., in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive testimony from members of the public and evidence related to the Application from the Company, any respondents, and the Commission’s Staff. Any person desiring to testify as a public witness at this hearing should appear fifteen (15) minutes prior to the starting time of the hearing and contact the Commission’s Bailiff.

Copies also may be obtained by submitting a written request to counsel for the Company, Lisa S. Booth, Esquire, Dominion Energy Services, Inc., 120 Tredegar Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219.
