Nightmare on I-95

Heavy snow, icy conditions kept motorists stranded for hours

By Daniel Berti and Jill Palermo Times Staff Writers

Stranded on Interstate 95 since about 10 p.m.

Monday, Jan. 3, Alison Bradshaw had a message for Virginia officials Tuesday morning: “We need help!”

“We need food and water. People need gas,” Bradshaw said at about 8:40 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 4, after being stranded on the roadway for more than 10 hours. She, her husband and their four kids – ages 10, 8, 5 and 4 – had spent the night in their SUV in the northbound lanes near the 138 mile marker, south of Fredericksburg.

The family was traveling home to New York after a holiday trip in Florida. They’d spent Monday night in South Carolina and pulled off I-95 at about 9 p.m. Monday to get something to eat.

The roads hadn’t been all that bad at that point, she said, and although they had heard about the storm in Virginia, they thought the roads would be cleared by the time they reached the state.

But that didn’t happen. Bradshaw said they had yet to see a snowplow or any emergency vehicles while stranded, a situation that became especially scary when temperatures plunged into the teens overnight.

Thankfully, Bradshaw said, her four kids

Snowfall totals:

• Manassas: 10.5 inches • Independent Hill: 10.2 inches • Montclair: 9.0 inches • Gainesville: 6.8 inches • Manassas: 5.7 inches • Manassas Park: 5.2 inches Prince William residents, businesses that lost power: 20,000+ mostly slept through the night. They turned the engine on and off periodically in an effort to keep warm. By morning, however, they had only two bottles of water to share among them and were getting worried.

“It seems they were completely unprepared for this storm,” Bradshaw said of Virginia officials. “There’s no help for these people. There’s no movement.”

Finally, just before 10 a.m., Tuesday, Jan. 4, traffic began creeping forward. Eventually the family made it into Prince William County, where they finally saw signs of help: Firefighters were walking along the still-blocked southbound lanes, handing out water and supplies, she said.

By Jill Palermo Times Staff Writer Both Virginia and Prince William County set records for the highest number of new COVID-19 cases reported in a single day during the past week, while the local community transmission rate nearly doubled to 1,343 cases per 100,000 residents.

The transmission rate is 13 times what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers “high” – its most severe rating – which is anything more than 100 cases per 100,000 residents.

In Prince William County, the number of new daily cases reported Friday, Dec. 31, surpassed the previous record set back in January 2021 for the first time. There were 1,567 new cases reported in the county on New Year’s Eve – an all-time high. Since then, daily cases have fallen to an average of about 1,000 a day – a 57% increase from the previous week.

Meanwhile, the local percent-positivity rate on COVID-19 tests stood at 38.7% as of Wednesday, Jan. 5 – an all-time high since the pandemic began. The percent-positivity rate was a mere 7% in early December, according to the Virginia Department of Health.

The ongoing surge in cases is worse in the Washington, D.C. area than in most parts of the country, according to the Washington Post, and is being blamed on the convergence of the more contagious omicron variant and the lingering delta variant.

Local epidemiologists attribute the spike in local cases to everything from D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser’s decision to drop the city’s mask mandate in November to the D.C. area’s relatively high vaccination rate. While vaccines helped ward off cases of the delta variant, the shots have been less effective at stopping infections of the omnicron variant, experts say.

Still, those who are both vaccinated and boosted are showing much milder symptoms than the unvaccinated, who continue to make up the vast majority of those hospitalized for COVID-19 in Virginia, according to VDH.

Hospitalizations

Hospitalizations are rising locally and statewide, however. On Jan. 5, a total of 2,965 people suffering from COVID-19 symptoms were hospitalized across the state, up about 30% from the previous week, according to the Virginia Healthcare and Hospital Association.

Locally, 490 new hospitalizations were reported over the past week – about double the number reported the previous week.

Schools to issue at-home tests when classes resume

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

Prince William County schools were closed because of the snowstorm through Wednesday this week, but Superintendent LaTanya McDade has announced a few new tools aimed at controlling the spread of the coronavirus in schools when classes resume: free at-home tests for students and staff and a new “test-to-stay” policy.

McDade, who took the helm of the school division July 1, announced the developments in a letter sent to parents and staff on Thursday, Dec. 30.

The letter said the school division had already sent home 11,000 eMed BinaxNow home test kits to staff and students before the winter break. All schools received the tests, according to school division spokeswoman Diana Gulotta, but it’s not clear how they were distributed.

Those details were not included in McDade’s letter.

McDade further said that although COVID-19 home test kits are in short supply, the school division has procured additional kits that will be available no later than Friday, Jan. 7, “for distribution to students and staff exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19,” the letter said.

“We continue to collaborate with the Prince William County Health District to secure additional testing options,” the letter added, directing recipients to the VDH website for other testing sites, all of which have been swamped in recent days.

The tests were obtained through the state’s new Virginia School Screening Testing for Assurance (ViSSTA) program, which offers COVID-19 testing to K-12 schools.

The program provides regular “screening testing” of asymptomatic individuals to identify asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic cases of COVID-19 “with the aim of catching cases early and stopping further transmission,” the letter said.

Further, McDade said the school division will implement a “test-to-stay strategy” as part of a Virginia Department of Health pilot program. The program consists of contract-tracing and “serial testing” to allow school-associated close contacts who are not fully vaccinated to continue to attend school during their quarantine period, the letter said.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now advises that schools may consider the use of TTS to minimize the impact of quarantine on students and limit school absences after a COVID-19 exposure in schools.

McDade said the program is not yet in force but that parents and the community will be updated as more information becomes available.

McDade’s letter acknowledged a “rapidly changing global pandemic” and noted “there is understandable concern about the new COVID variant and its impact.” Still, she said the school division remains “committed to providing instruction to our students, in person, within our school buildings.”

“We know in-person instruction is best for students academically, socially and emotionally,” she added. “It is clear the negative impact the last 20 months of this pandemic has had on children, as well as the families we serve.”

The letter further said the school division would maintain its mask mandate for all students and staff and that student athletic programs would continue to operate as planned even though some “individual teams or events may need to be paused for the safety of all participants.”

The school division will retain its existing COVID-19 quarantining protocols – for now – despite a recent change guidance from the CDC. On Monday, Dec. 27, the CDC advised that individuals who contract the virus need only to quarantine for five days after becoming infected – instead of 10 – so long as they wear a good-fitting masks for an additional five days, have improving or no symptoms and no longer have a fever.

The superintendent said the school division is evaluating the guidance with the Prince William Health District but that its current health protocols regarding quarantine will remain the same until further notice.

McDade further urged all students and staff who are eligible to be vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19 to do so as soon as possible. She said the school division is working with the Prince William Health District to secure “additional vaccination sites at our school locations” and that additional information will be shared as they are scheduled McDade also noted that “more than 91%” of school division staff are vaccinated. The school board passed a resolution in September requiring that staff members receive the COVID-19 vaccine or be tested weekly.

The school division has not yet begun weekly tests of unvaccinated staff or those who chose not to disclose their vaccination status. But those tests will begin to be required on Jan. 10, 2022, Gulotta said in a Dec. 8 email.

“Test sites are located in schools throughout the division, and the testing is free for employees,” Gulotta said.

COVID-19 cases spike locally COVID, from page 1 An average of about 43 COVID-19 Prince William County residents were released from hospitals each day over the past week – a nearly 200% increase over the seven-day average of 15 reported locally on Christmas Eve. Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center in Woodbridge reported 58 COVID-19 patients hospitalized on Wednesday, Jan. 5. The increase of about 45% since New Year’s Eve. About 31% of the hospital’s 180 beds are currently occupied by those needing treatment for COVID-19, according to Sentara’s public COVID-19 dashboard.

VDH released age information on only 73 of the 490 new hospitalizations reported locally over the past seven days. Of those, there were at least 16 new hospitalizations reported among kids age 9 and under, while kids and teens between 10 and 19 reported at least six.

Residents in their 20s reported the most hospitalizations over the past week at 23. Local residents in their 20s have reported the most COVID-19 infections since the pandemic began: 12,638. A total of 194 local twenty-somethings have been

hospitalized for COVID-19, while eight have died since March 2020.

Residents in their 30s and 40s reported at least 10 and eight hospitalizations, respectively, over the past week, while there were at least eight hospitalizations recorded among residents in their 50s and one each among residents in their 60s and 70s.

Local cases

The VDH reported age information on only about 13% of the 9,072 new cases reported locally over the past week.

Of those, residents in their 20s reported the most new cases with 372.

They were followed by kids ages 9 and under, who reported 253 new cases, and then by kids and teens between the ages of 10 and 19, who reported 178.

Northam: Hospitalizations and severe symptoms – not cases – are the state’s the top concern

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, who is a pediatric neurologist, says the recent rise is in cases is “a reason for concern, but not a reason for panic.”

Northam said it’s important to study not only the number of cases reported each day but also the severity of symptoms and hospitalizations.

“The data are clear: Nearly everyone

going to the hospital with COVID is unvaccinated. This is entirely avoidable if everyone gets their shots,” Northam said in a Dec. 29 statement. “This is really important because people working in hospitals are exhausted—nurses, doctors and everyone. They have worked tirelessly for months to care for people who have gotten sick.”

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS

The approved map reduces the number of congressional districts including parts of Prince William County from three to two: the 7th and 10th districts.

Del. Luke Torian, one of the Virginia House of Delegates’ most powerful Democrats, has been drawn into the same district as Del. Elizabeth Guzman, one of the House’s most progressive Democrats, under new redistricting maps finalized by the Supreme Court of Virginia last week.

Both delegates live in eastern Prince William County in the Woodbridge area. About two-thirds of the voters in the new district, now known as District 24, come from Guzman’s previous district, the 31st District. One-third of the district’s voters are from Torian’s previous district, the 52nd District.

Both lawmakers declined requests for comment about whether they would seek re-election in the new district.

Torian, 63, who also serves as head pastor of First Mount Zion Baptist Church in Dumfries, was first elected in 2009. Torian became chair of the house appropriations committee in 2019, leading the powerful committee in 2020 and 2021 in ironing out the state budget.

Guzman, 48, a social services administrator for the City of Alexandria, was elected in 2017. She has championed progressive causes such as paid family leave and laws allowing undocumented immigrants to obtain driver privilege cards. As a member of the Prince William-Manassas Regional Jail Board, Guzman helped end Prince William County’s 287(g) agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, in 2020.

The new redistricting maps were drawn by two “special masters” – one each selected by Democrats and Republicans – and overseen by the state Supreme Court after a bipartisan redistricting commission failed to come to an agreement on new state legislative and congressional districts.

Also at the state legislative level, Prince William County will now have three state Senate districts that are either entirely or almost entirely within the county. The districts – the 29th, 30th and 33rd – would be split between western Prince William, Manassas and Manassas Park; Dumfries, southeastern Prince William County and north Stafford County; and Woodbridge, Dale City and parts of southern Fairfax County.

There will be seven total House Districts in Prince William County, down from eight. The new maps create two new state House Districts in the eastern and western ends of the county with no incumbent – the 19th and 21st Districts.

Congressional districts

At the federal level, Prince William County will have two representatives in U.S. Congress under new redistricting maps. The western and mid-county area along with Manassas and Manassas Park will be within the redrawn 10th District. The eastern side of the county will be in the 7th District.

The 10th District is currently held by Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D), and the 7th District is held by Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D).

Spanberger is drawn out of the previous 7th District, which was located in Central Virginia, south of the new district. The new district encompasses eastern Prince William County; the City of Fredericksburg; Stafford, Spotsylvania, Caroline, Culpeper, Greene, King George, Madison, and Orange counties; and part of Albemarle County.

Spanberger, 42, of Henrico County, announced on Wednesday, Dec. 29, that she will seek re-election in the newly drawn district, even though she does not live within the district.

“Nearly 200,000 Virginians in the new Seventh District have already been my constituents under the current district lines, and I look forward to

Redistricting impacts

The state Supreme Court approved Virginia’s legislative and congressional districts last week following the failure of an independent, bipartisan commission to reach a consensus on the new maps last year.

Effect on incumbents

The new map effectively removes parts of Prince William County from districts currently held by: • U.S. Rep. Rob Wittman, R-1st • U.S. Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-11th • State Sen. John Bell, D-13th • State Sen. Richard Stuart, R-28th • State Sen. Scott Surovell, D-36th • State Sen. George Barker, D-39th • State Del. Dan Helmer, D-40th • State Del. Suhas Subramanyam, D-87th Proposed districts with no incumbents: • U.S. House District 7: half of Prince William • State Senate District 30: western Prince William • State Senate District 33: eastern Prince William, southern Fairfax • State House District 21: Gainesville area • State House District 19: Woodbridge, southern Fairfax Proposed districts with 2 or more incumbents • House District 24: Woodbridge, Occoquan area. Both Del. Luke Torian, D-52nd, and Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st, live in this district Proposed districts with 1 incumbent residing in Prince William • State Senate District 29: Sen. Jeremy McPike (D) • House District 20: Del. Danica Roem (D) • House District 22: Del.-elect Michelle Maldonado (D) • House District 23: Del. Candi King (D) • House District 24: Del.-elect Briana Sewell (D)

Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st

continuing my service representing them as well as my future constituents. I will continue to work hard on behalf of their families, their businesses, their farms and our local economies in the years to come,” Spanberger said.

Wexton, 53, of Leesburg, announced on Wednesday, Dec. 29, that she will seek re-election in the 10th District. Wexton was first elected in 2018 and re-elected in 2020.

Several Democratic elected officials and former elected officials from Prince William County had previously announced their interest in running for U.S. Congress in the 7th District after initial drafts of the maps released earlier this month. The initially proposed 7th District encompassed all of Prince William County, Stafford County and the City of Fredericksburg.

State Sen. Jeremy McPike, D-29th, Guzman, Prince William County School Board Chair Dr. Babur Lateef, and former House delegates Hala Ayala and Jennifer Carroll Foy, all said they would consider running for U.S. Congress in the 7th district under the first version of the map.

Nightmare on I-95 I-95, from page 1 “While this was very scary, it ended up being a huge inconvenience for us, whereas other people I’m sure were much worse off,” Bradshaw said. “I can’t imagine having gone through that with a little baby in the car and no diapers, no food or water or even gas, like so many other people, I’m sure, were dealing with,” she said. “I’m still floored at the lack of visible work crews out there.”

The Bradshaws were among no doubt hundreds of motorists stranded along I-95 for more than 20 hours after a snowstorm dropped up to a foot of wet snow along the corridor over about seven-hour period on Monday.

During a call with reporters midday Tuesday, officials with the Virginia Department of Transportation and Virginia State Police said the heavy wet snow, falling trees and a series of accidents overwhelmed efforts to respond to motorists who got stuck in snow and ice, spun out, jack-knifed or ran out of gas.

VDOT officials said they had planned for a forecast few inches of snow but were overwhelmed by snow that fell at a rate of 1 to 4 inches an hour at some points during the storm.

At the worst of the backup, traffic was stopped for about 30 miles, from exit 136 south of Fredericksburg to exit 163 near Lorton, according to Marcie Parker, a VDOT Frederick District engineer.

Still, VDOT did not know how many cars were involved in the backup, Parker said.

VDOT and the state police worked throughout the day and night to clear stalled cars and trucks but were dealing with dozens of incidents, including jackknifed tractor-trailer trucks as well as a single incident late Monday afternoon that in-

A view of Interstate 95 from the overpass at Va. 234 as of about 11:45 a.m. Tuesday morning. volved six such huge trucks.

There were no deaths nor injuries, but worried pleas for help from stranded motorists -- some with children, medically fragile family members and pets -- went largely unanswered save for a series of tweets from VDOT that promised that crews were working to help stuck vehicles and clear roadway.

Corinne Geller, spokeswoman for the Virginia State Police, said wreckers would get cars and trucks unstuck only to have to assist them again further up the road.

“You can’t just open a lane for vehicles until it’s safe for all vehicles to travel,” she said.

By about 4 a.m. Tuesday, VDOT made the call to close the road entirely for a 50-mile stretch from exit 104 at Chapel Church Loop, south of Fredericksburg, all the way to exit 152 in Dumfries.

“We made a decision that we needed to remove all the vehicles from the roadway because the ice was approximately 4 inches in some locations,” Parker said.

Parker said VDOT did not pretreat I-95 because the storm began as rain that would have washed away the deicing chemicals. Still, she called the situation “unacceptable.”

“We really understand that people face very stressful, scary situations,” said Kelly Hannon, a spokeswoman for VDOT’s Fredericksburg office.

“And we do apologize, and we’ll be taking an exhaustive look at this incident.”

Northam: A ‘perfect storm’ led to massive backup

A “perfect storm” of poor weather conditions

led to a traffic jam on Interstate 95 Monday that left hundreds of motorists stranded in their vehicles during a snowstorm, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said in a press conference Tuesday afternoon.

“First, we had rain, which meant that VDOT couldn’t adequately pre-treat the roads. Then we had slushy snow that fell faster than our snowplows could move it. And then, as the night fell, the temperatures dropped below freezing. All of those together created the perfect storm for what happened on I-95 last night: multiple jack knifed tractor trailers blocking the highway and leading to miles of backups with people stuck in their cars for many hours,” Northam said.

Northam said the National Guard was on standby to help reopen I-95. But he said that, as of 4 p.m., no localities had requested assistance from the National Guard, and state agencies had all the resources needed to clear the roadway.

Some Virginia lawmakers just called on Northam to declare a state of emergency and activate the National Guard, including Virginia House of Delegates Speaker-designee Todd Gilbert, R-15th, of Shenandoah, who called the situation “untenable” in a statement Tuesday.

Northam said he did not plan to declare a state of emergency because that is typically something declared “hours, ideally days before the emergency” and is “not something that helps with rapid response to an emergency that is occurring.”

By about 8:40 p.m. Tuesday night, VDOT officials reported that the 50-mile stretch of roadway had reopened to traffic after being closed for a total of about 15 hours.

Dels. Torian, Guzman drawn into the same district in final redistricting map REDISTRICTING, from page 3 As of this week, none had formally filed to run for the seat. On Twitter, Lateef called the new maps a “VA Supreme Court fail.”

“PWC split into [two] districts, splitting a majority-minority community. This continues the gerrymandering that has weakened the second largest county in Virginia for

too long insuring underrepresented minorities remain underrepresented,” Lateef said.

Tonya James, the chair of the Prince William County Democratic Committee, said in a Thursday, Dec. 30 interview that the new congressional and state legislative maps are a step in the right direction for Prince William.

“With regard to the congressional

map, I would have preferred to see the totality of Prince William in one congressional district. However, I do see an opportunity for the most diverse locality in Virginia to be represented adequately by two Democrats. I believe that that we will be able to keep both of those seats,” James said.

But James added: “I don’t necessarily believe that the redistricting

process worked well this time, and hopefully the General Assembly will fix it before the next census comes.”

Elections for U.S. Congress will take place in November 2022. Elections for the Virginia state senate and house of delegates will be held in November 2023.

Proposed Structure #588/255 is a backbone structure and will be located inside Fentress Substation, while proposed Structure #588/254 will be in existing right of way to the west of Fentress Substation.

Rider OSW Pursuant to Code § 56-585.1 A 6, Dominion seeks approval to recover the costs of the CVOW Project and the related distribution and transmission facilities through proposed Rider OSW. Dominion asks the Commission to approve Rider OSW for the initial rate year beginning September 1, 2022, and ending August 31, 2023 (“Rate Year”), to recover a total revenue requirement of $78,702,000. Dominion calculated this revenue requirement using a rate of return on common equity of 9.2%, which was approved in Commission Case No. PUR-2019-00050 and is subject to update. Further details on Rider OSW are available in the Application.

• Dominion further requests approval of Rider OSW to recover the costs of the CVOW Project and related interconnection and transmission facilities with a revenue requirement of $78,702,000 over the rate year beginning September 1, 2022, and concluding August 31, 2023. According to Dominion, this amount would increase a typical residential customer’s bill using 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per month by $1.45.

If the proposed Rider OSW for the 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 OSW on September 1, 2022, would increase the bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per month by approximately $1.45.

• The State Corporation Commission will hold a telephonic hearing in this case on May 16, 2022, at 10 a.m., for the receipt of public witness testimony.

Foreign Currency Risk Mitigation Plan

• An evidentiary hearing will be held on May 17, 2022, at 9 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.

To help minimize risks, Dominion intends to execute a foreign currency hedging plan, subject to the Commission finding the plan to be reasonable and prudent. Specifically, the Company states that it intends to enter into financial hedges of foreign currency exposure via forward swaps executed shortly after Commission approval of the Foreign Currency Risk Mitigation Plan, unless market conditions dictate otherwise.

Description of Route Cable Landing to Harpers Proposed Route – Underground

The Virginia Clean Economy Act (“VCEA”), became effective on July 1, 2020. Among other things, the VCEA declares “[i]n order to meet the Commonwealth’s clean energy goals, prior to December 31, 2034, the construction or purchase by a public utility of one or more offshore wind generation facilities located off the Commonwealth’s Atlantic shoreline or in federal waters and interconnected directly into the Commonwealth, with an aggregate capacity of up to 5,200 megawatts, is in the public interest . . . .” in new Code § 56-585.1:11.

On November 5, 2021, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion” or “Company”) filed with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) an application for approval and certification of an offshore wind generation project, called the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind Commercial Project (“CVOW” or “CVOW Project”), and for approval of a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider Offshore Wind (“Rider OSW”), pursuant to §§ 56-585.1:11; 56-46.1, 56-265.1 et seq., and 56-585.1 A 6 of the Code (“Application”).

The Application requests the Commission grant: (i) Approval, as required, of the CVOW Project, to be located in a federal lease area beginning approximately 27 statute miles (approximately 24 nautical miles) off the coast of Virginia Beach, Virginia (“Lease Area”) and related power export facilities; (ii) Approval and certification of electric interconnection and transmission facilities, comprising transmission facilities required to interconnect CVOW with the existing transmission system (“Virginia Facilities”); (iii) Approval of Rider OSW, to recover costs incurred to construct, own, and operate the offshore wind generation facilities and related interconnection and transmission facilities that compose the CVOW Project; and (iv) Approval of a Foreign Currency Risk Mitigation Plan.

CVOW Project The Application states that the CVOW Project encompasses offshore wind generation facilities consisting of 176 14.7 megawatt (“MW”) wind turbine generators located in the Lease Area as well as related offshore export facilities, which will transport the generated electricity onshore to the Cable Landing Location at the State Military Reservation (“SMR”) in the City of Virginia Beach, Virginia, then to the Harpers Switching Station at Naval Air Station Oceana (“NAS Oceana”), which will become the point of interconnection to the PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. transmission system after construction, and finally terminating at the Company’s existing Fentress Substation.

Dominion states the CVOW Project is expected to provide approximately 9,500 gigawatt-hours of carbon-free energy per year.

The total cost of the CVOW Project is expected to be approximately $9.8 billion, including an estimated conceptual cost of $1,148.5 million for the onshore Virginia Facilities (2021 dollars).

Virginia Facilities According to the Application, in order to interconnect the proposed CVOW Project and to maintain the structural integrity and reliability of the transmission system in compliance with mandatory North American Electric Reliability Corporation Reliability Standards, Dominion requests approval and certification of the following Virginia Facilities in the Cities of Virginia Beach and Chesapeake, Virginia, with a desired in-service target date of July 31, 2025: • Offshore Export Circuits: Install nine 230 kilovolt (“kV”) submarine export circuits, which begin approximately 3.0 miles offshore at the Virginia jurisdictional line demarcating state-owned submerged lands and extend to an onshore Cable Landing Location on SMR in the City of Virginia Beach; • Onshore Export Circuits: At the onshore Cable Landing Location on SMR, the Offshore Export Circuits will transition to nine underground 230 kV Onshore Export Circuits, which will extend underground approximately 4.4 miles to the proposed Harpers Switching Station located on NAS Oceana property in Virginia; • Harpers Switching Station: Construct a switching station on a site located along Harpers Road at NAS Oceana, which will transition the nine Onshore Export Circuits to three Overhead Transmission Circuits. The proposed arrangement will include multiple circuit breakers, fixed and variable reactor banks, static synchronous compensators, and associated facilities; • Overhead Transmission Circuits: Install three new overhead 230 kV transmission circuits, each with a rating of approximately 1,500 megavolt amperes (“MVA”), along the same corridor extending approximately 14.2 miles between the Harpers Switching Station and the Company’s existing Fentress Substation and utilizing a combination of new, existing and expanded right-of-way in the Cities of Virginia Beach and Chesapeake; • Line #271 Partial Rebuild: Wreck and rebuild approximately 6.1 miles of the Company’s existing approximately 7.1-mile 230 kV overhead Landstown-Pocaty Line #271, which also supports idle 115 kV Line #I-74. With a few exceptions discussed in the Transmission Appendix of the Application, the Company will wreck the existing double circuit lattice structures for Lines #271/#I-74 and replace them with (i) new double circuit monopole structures to carry Line #271 and one Overhead Transmission Circuit, and (ii) either new single circuit or double circuit monopole structures to carry the two remaining Overhead Transmission Circuits. The Line #271 Partial Rebuild will rebuild COR-TEN® towers that have been identified for replacement and remove idle Line #I-74; • Line #2240 Rebuild: Wreck and rebuild the entire approximately 1.9 miles of the Company’s existing 230 kV overhead Fentress-Pocaty Line #2240, which also supports idle 115 kV Line #I-74, where all three Overhead Transmission Circuits will be collocated on structures within a 40-foot expanded right-of-way (from the existing 120-footwide right-of-way to an expanded 160-foot right-of-way). The Line #2240 Partial Rebuild will rebuild COR-TEN® towers that have been identified for replacement and remove idle Line #I-74; and • Fentress Substation Expansion: Expand the Company’s existing 500-230 kV Fentress Substation in Chesapeake, Virginia. The proposed arrangement will expand the existing 500 kV yard, install three new 230 kV line terminals, uprate the existing 230 kV Line #2240 terminal to 4000A, and perform related work to expand the Fentress Substation entirely within Company-owned property. Based on conceptual design, two structures (Structures #2128/1 and #2128/2) will be removed and replaced with four new structures (Structures #2128/1, #2128/1 A,

The submarine Offshore Export Circuits would come ashore at a site referred to as the Cable Landing Location within the SMR in Virginia Beach. At this location, the Offshore Export Circuits would connect to the Onshore Export Circuits in a series of buried vaults. The Onshore Export Circuits would then be installed underground from the Cable Landing Location to the proposed site for the Harpers Switching Station on the north side of Harpers Road within NAS Oceana. This route, referred to as the Cable Landing to Harpers Proposed Route, would measure approximately 4.4 miles in length.

Upon exiting the Cable Landing Location, the route would head west/southwest for about 0.9 mile to General Booth Boulevard, crossing the SMR. This segment would include a trenchless crossing of Lake Christine using horizontal directional drilling (“HDD”). The route would then head west/northwest for approximately 1.4 miles, of which about 0.6 mile would be adjacent to Bells Road. This segment would include an HDD crossing of Owl Creek and would enter NAS Oceana near Bells Road. The route would then head south for 1.1 miles along the east side of Oceana Boulevard. At the intersection of Oceana Boulevard and Harpers Road, the Cable Landing to Harpers Proposed Route would head west for 1.0 mile along the north side of Harpers Road, terminating at the Harpers Switching Station site.

Harpers to Fentress Proposed Route 1 – Overhead Harpers to Fentress Proposed Route 1 would require an overhead installation of the three 230 kV transmission circuits between the Harpers Switching Station site in Virginia Beach and Dominion’s existing Fentress Substation in Chesapeake. The route would measure approximately 14.2 miles in total length. After exiting the switching station, the route would head southwest for about 2.3 miles mostly within the Southeastern Parkway & Greenbelt (“SEPG”) corridor – an undeveloped study corridor for a former highway project – crossing Dam Neck Road and London Bridge Road. The route would then head west/southwest for about 3.2 miles within the SEPG corridor, crossing Holland Road and Princess Anne Road and entering the Princess Anne Commons area of Virginia Beach. About 1.8 miles of this segment of the route would be adjacent to Dominion’s existing transmission right-of-way for Lines #2118/147. In the area approximately between Dam Neck Road and Princess Anne Road, the route would pass between or near the Prince George Estates, Mayberry, Castleton, Pine Ridge, Holland Pines, and Woods of Piney Grove subdivisions.

From Princess Anne Commons, the route would continue southwest for about 0.8 mile within the SEPG corridor to an intersection with Dominion’s existing transmission right-of-way for Lines #271/I-74. The route would then follow this existing right-of-way for about 6.1 miles to the south, entering Chesapeake just south of Indian River Farms Park. In Virginia Beach, this route segment would cross Salem Road, North Landing River, and Indian River Road, and pass through or between the Highland Meadows, Highland Acres, Dewberry Farm, Indian River Woods, and Indian River Farms subdivisions. In Chesapeake, the route segment would cross the Intracoastal Waterway canal, Mt. Pleasant Road, and Blue Ridge Road. Existing lattice structures within the right-of-way for Lines #271/I-74 would be removed and replaced with new single-circuit and double-circuit monopole structures to carry Line #271 and the three circuits required for the overhead transmission line.

From a point just south of Blue Ridge Road, Harpers to Fentress Proposed Route 1 would follow Dominion’s existing transmission right-ofway for Lines #2240/I-74 for about 1.7 miles to Fentress Substation, crossing Whittamore Road and the Centerville Turnpike and paralleling part of the boundary of the Battlefield Golf Club. Existing lattice structures within the right-of-way would be removed and replaced with new double circuit and single circuit monopole structures to carry Line #2240 and the three circuits required for the CVOW Project.

Harpers to Fentress Proposed Route 1 would require 354 single circuit or double circuit monopole structures with a minimum structure height of 75 feet, a maximum structure height of 170 feet, and an average structure height of 121 feet.

Harpers to Fentress Alternative Route 2 – Overhead Harpers to Fentress Alternative Route 2 would require an overhead installation of the three 230 kV transmission circuits between the Harpers Switching Station site in Virginia Beach and Dominion’s existing Fentress Substation in Chesapeake. The route would measure approximately 15.2 miles in total length. After exiting the switching station, the route would head southwest for about 2.3 miles mostly within the SEPG corridor, crossing Dam Neck Road and London Bridge Road. The route would then head west/southwest for about 3.2 miles within the SEPG corridor, crossing Holland Road and Princess Anne Road and entering the Princess Anne Commons area of Virginia Beach. About 1.8 miles of this segment would be adjacent to Dominion’s existing transmission right-of-way for Lines #2118/147. In the area approximately between Dam Neck Road and Princess Anne Road, the route would pass between or near the Prince George Estates, Mayberry, Castleton, Pine Ridge, Holland Pines, and Woods of Piney Grove subdivisions.

From Princess Anne Commons, the route would head south/southwest for approximately 3.2 miles, crossing Salem Road, Indian River Road, North Landing River (where the route would enter Chesapeake), and the Intracoastal Waterway canal. The route would then head west for 3.2 miles paralleling the south side of the canal to an intersection with Dominion’s existing transmission right-of-way for Lines #271/I-74.

The route would follow this existing right-of-way for about 1.6 miles to the south, crossing Mt. Pleasant Road and Blue Ridge Road. Existing lattice structures within the right-of-way would be removed and replaced with new double circuit and single circuit monopole structures to carry Line #271 and the three circuits required for the CVOW Project.

From a point just south of Blue Ridge Road, Harpers to Fentress Alternative Route 2 would follow Dominion’s existing transmission right-ofway for Line #2240 for about 1.7 mile to Fentress Substation, crossing Whittamore Road and the Centerville Turnpike and paralleling part of the boundary of the Battlefield Golf Club. Existing lattice structures within the right-of-way would be removed and replaced with new double circuit and single circuit monopole structures to carry Line #2240 and the three circuits required for the project.

Harpers to Fentress Alternative Route 2 would require 375 single circuit or double circuit monopole structures with a minimum structure height of 75 feet, a maximum structure height of 170 feet, and an average structure height of 120 feet.

Prince William County supervisors are taking steps to address the need for affordable housing in their upcoming comprehensive plan update. They directed county staff to draft an affordable dwelling unit ordinance that could stipulate that new housing developments include a certain percentage of affordable units to be approved for necessary rezonings.

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | January 6, 2022

GUEST OPINION

Every year begins with questions.

Here are a few for 2022.

By Dwayne Yancey What will Glenn Youngkin do as governor? He managed to get elected despite saying very little about policy beyond a few headline items. He won’t be able to get away with that much longer. He’ll be luckier than many incoming governors: He’ll take office with a state treasury overflowing with cash.

What will the General Assembly do? OK, that’s a broad question.

We have a brand new political dynamic in Richmond, with a Republican majority restored to power in the House of Delegates – although Democrats still hold a 21-19 margin in the state Senate. What bills can Republicans pass in the House that will get through a Senate where Democrats still control all the chairmanships? That’s the big question looming over the upcoming General Assembly session. Now for a few more specific ones: What will happen with marijuana legalization? The Democratic legislature last year legalized possession but Virginia still hasn’t set up the full framework for a legalized retail market. Furthermore, Democrats and Republicans have very different ideas about how that should be done.

Democrats wanted to emphasize “social equity” by giving preference to those convicted of marijuana offenses. The Republicans who are OK with legalization tend to be of a more libertarian mindset, which also means they think the free market should be left alone to do its thing.

Those two views could not be more diametrically opposed.

Which localities will ban retail cannabis stores? One provision of the law passed last year gives localities one shot – and one shot only – at banning retail stores. If localities don’t hold a referendum in 2022 to ban weed stores, those localities are presumed open for business. (Assuming, of course, that a license is issued for someone in that locality.

Assuming that’s how the law even works after Republicans get through with it.)

Will the General Assembly pass a constitutional amendment to address school disparity? Probably not, simply because it never has before. Last year, state Sen. Bill Stanley, R-20TH, of Franklin County, managed to get the measure through the state Senate – a massive surprise – only to have it strangled in committee by Democrats, many from Northern Virginia. The Senate remains the same but now the House is under new management. Will this be the year?

Or will Republicans get cold feet about the potential cost (even if the

localities that would benefit most are rural, Republican ones)?

Will the General Assembly do something about school construction? This has been another issue that Stanley has valiantly pushed in recent years, only to see the measure killed. Now, though, there seems a growing consensus that the state does need to do something to help less affluent localities pay for the enormous costs of school modernization. In his outgoing budget, Gov. Ralph Northam has proposed $500 million. Will we see that amount stay intact, get whittled down, or increased?

How many people will get vaccinated? We know that right now 77.1% of Virginians have been vaccinated against COVID-19. That’s a lot, but not the figure scientists say we need to hit to truly get this pandemic under control. Furthermore, there are a lot of geographic disparities, although they’re not purely rural and urban. There are plenty of rural localities – such as on the Northern Neck – with high vaccination rates. The problem areas are in Southwest Virginia. That’s also where the highest infection rates usually are. Will any of that change?

Does the Omicron variant signal the beginning of the end — a more infectious but perhaps milder strain of the virus? Or will we just have to accept COVID as the new normal?

Will Alden succeed in acquiring most of Virginia’s daily newspapers? Alden Global Capital, a hedge fund with a reputation for buying newspapers and then gutting them, has made a bid for Lee Enterprises, whose Virginia properties include the dailies in Bristol, Charlottesville, Culpeper, Fredericksburg, Lynchburg, Martinsville, Richmond and Roanoke plus many weeklies and semi-weeklies. Alden already owns the papers in Norfolk and Newport News. If successful in its bid to buy Lee, it would own all but a handful of dailies in Virginia, and all the major ones. Is that a good idea, even if Alden didn’t have such a rapacious reputation? (The correct answer there is “no.”) If you think it’s important to have journalists bird-dogging your local governing body, the planning commission, the school board and all the rest, you should be rooting for Lee to withstand Alden’s takeover bid.

What will happen that we don’t know to ask about yet?

Something will, right? It always does.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Rising COVID-19 cases should delay rural crescent meetings, decisions Cases of COVID are spiking, and experts say it is likely to remain that way for a six to eight weeks. During this same time frame, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors likely will hold critical meetings related to rezoning the “rural crescent” to allow a data center alley of more than 2,000 acres of new data centers.

Citizens of Prince William County are just trying to get through the day dealing with the pandemic. It’s difficult for them to come out to town halls or other meetings to discuss or protest this project.

In addition, the area that is most affected, the Gainesville District, does not even have a voting representative on the board at this time.

For all these reasons, and given that this is a land-use change that will have enormous watershed and other environmental repercussions, the right thing for the board of county supervisors to do is to stop the data center express train and defer this decision until 2023 or 2024 when the citizens of this county can truly be involved.

ALLY STOEGER Gainesville

In support of Sen. Jill Vogel’s bill limiting solitary confinement I commend our state Sen. Jill Vogel, R-27th, for stepping up as the chief co-patron of a bill that would limit the use of solitary confinement in our state correctional system.

In Virginia, solitary confinement for adults is considered 20 hours per day in isolation away from the rest of the prison population and 17 hours a day for juvenile offenders.

This is not a “law and order” issue but a moral and mental health issue to prohibit punishment which can result in “torture,” depending on the number of days and the hours per day as defined by internationally recognized rules. Solitary confinement is proven to exacerbate mental health illness, and reducing the use of this practice can create safer prisons, as well as safer communities when prisoners are released.

This bill will prohibit this practice except in rare circumstances— such as when a prisoner poses a real and imminent threat of physical harm—and only for as little time as necessary. Though this bill will not affect regional detention facilities, such as the one in Warrenton or Manassas, local residents are held at state prisons throughout Virginia.

As the author of Hebrews in the New Testament writes in Chapter 13, verse 3: “Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured.”

Thank you, Sen. Vogel, for your moral courage and leadership, and I encourage all residents to communicate their support of this bill.

‘BASICALLY, I HAVE FIVE GUARDS OUT THERE’ Yergey, Vollmer and youth have undersized Brentsville girls hoops squad rolling at 8-1 Junior co-captain Cara Vollmer is one of Brentsville’s potent scorers.

TIMES STAFF PHOTOS/COY FERRELL

By Jason S. Rufner Special to the Times

The future looks bright for Brentsville girls basketball.

The present looks pretty great, too.

Brentsville has a starting five of two juniors, two freshmen and a sophomore, and an 11-player roster with two seniors.

That’s right, without a senior starter or one over 6-feet, the Tigers are 8-1 overall and collecting decisive victories over much larger schools.

Brentsville has yet to play a fellow Class 3 school. The Tigers own five wins over Class 6 programs, including Gainesville, Osbourn, Freedom (Woodbridge), Hylton and Gar-Field, and three versus Class 4 teams, averaging a 22.75-point margin of victory. Only a 44-36 setback at Class 4 Fauquier on Dec. 10 blemishes their record.

They are heavy favorites with Meridian in the Class 3 Northwestern District, giving them long-range dreams of a strong run in the region and state tournaments.

There’s been nothing fancy about it.

“Playing hard and executing, everybody buying in. That’s what it’s been so far,” said head coach Eugene Baltimore, in his 13th season helming the program in Nokesville.

“We’re battling. We just need to continue to do that moving forward.”

The Tigers are built for success this year and next with freshmen Brookelynn Miller and Macie Mayes in the starting lineup along with sophomore Liz Rice.

Meet the Tigers

The Tigers are young, scrappy, and “not very big,” Baltimore said.

“Every team we’ve faced so far has been bigger than we are.”

The Tigers’ top weapon is 5-foot9 junior Alden Yergey, a high-scoring point guard who can go off for 30 points. Yergey has committed to play for Siena College (N.Y.), a NCAA Division I program in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.

Her backcourt running mate and fellow captain is 5-7 junior Cara Vollmer, an attention-attracting scoring threat as well.

Sophomore forward Liz Rice, at 5-9, is the Tigers’ primary rebounder. Freshman guards Macie Mayes and Brookelynn Miller have forced their ways into the starting lineup because of their advanced basketball IQs. “Basically, I have five guards out there,” Baltimore said. “I think

Brentsville’s dynamic attack is led by junior Alden Yergey, a 5-foot-9 guard who can light up the scoreboard. The Siena College-bound co-captain has helped the Tigers open 8-1. that’s a key to this year. Even though there’s a lack of height, our girls can handle the basketball.”

Yergey and Vollmer are looked to as “leaders by example on and off the court,” while Mayes and Miller are rapidly getting used to the varsity game.

“Talking with my coaches, we agreed they should be starting,” the coach said. “Very proud of both of them and what they’ve done so far.”

Baltimore, who coached at the college level for eight seasons, said he likes this group of Tigers.

“They’re a fun bunch to be around, fun bunch to coach. We just have to keep working and do the best we can, and things will go our way.”

Facing the Northwestern District

Coming off a three-year stretch during which Brentsville made the state tournament twice and regionals three times, the Tigers aren’t strangers to winning.

But with a new crop of talent

coming together for this season, Baltimore felt it was time for some challenges. He scheduled scrimmages against Battlefield and Unity Reed, then played a non-conference slate against some of the most populous schools in Prince William.

“I wanted to test us because when we face some of those teams in our conference, we have some very, very good teams, my goodness.”

January will put Brentsville through a gauntlet of tough Northwestern District foes, highlighted by the Jan. 21 showdown at home against defending state champion Meridian.

“And they got everybody back,” Baltimore said.

Before that comes a contest with Class 4 Northwestern District member Kettle Run, plus a Jan. 12 rematch against Fauquier, another Class 4 Northwestern team. On Jan. 14, the district schedule begins with a home game vs. Skyline.

COLGAN HIRES NATE STAPLES AS ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR Former Potomac athlete and long-time coach embracing role as administrator

THE STAPLES FILE

By Jason S. Rufner Special to the Times

On Dec. 17, Nathan Staples was announced as Colgan High’’s director of student activities, making him the second in school history after Dave Huckestein, who retired after guiding the department through its first six years.

A former Potomac High multi-sport athlete who graduated in 2001, Staples played NCAA Division I football at Norfolk State – nearly becoming a head football coach first.

In 2008 he coached defensive backs and running backs at Freedom-Woodbridge, then was an assistant for the Eagles’ baseball, indoor track, and outdoor track programs.

In 2014 he moved to Forest Park to coach defensive backs and offensive linemen. The following year he interviewed for the head job at Freedom, which went to Darryl Overton.

Tigers begin district play Jan. 14 BRENTSVILLE, from page 11 “Skyline’s one of the top teams in our conference. Kettle Run plays us tough. Fauquier has four seniors starting and a couple scholarship players.

They’re big,” Baltimore said. “If we’re fortunate to make it to regionals and beyond, we’re going to be facing some very physical teams.”

“It’s only going to get more difficult. These games can go either way,” the veteran coach said. “We’re going to have to fight every possession. We’re going to have to continue to get better, each and every day.”

Nathan Staples

-Hometown: Triangle -Alma mater: 2001 Potomac High graduate -Undergrad: 2007 Norfolk State graduate -Master’s degree: Has two degrees from University of Phoenix and is pursuing PhD

“I’ll never forget one of the comments from (Freedom activities director) Steve Bryson, who was one of my football coaches in high school,” Staples recalled.

“They said they knew I was going to be an administrator, not a coach.”

Even at age 13, Staples said he was drawn to the administration side. “Outside of my father, who was in the Marines, those are upstanding people who I wanted to emulate,” Staples said. “They were my influences.”

Athlete first

After playing baseball, lacrosse, and football, and running track at Potomac High, Staples went to Division II Shepherd University (W.Va.) to play defensive back. When a back injury derailed his development, he took two years off from the field.

He considered following his father into the military, but opted to walk-on to the Norfolk State football team, earning a spot on special teams for two seasons.

“It was just the love of the game,” he said. “I felt like football was taken away, so I wanted to challenge myself and see if I could play at the Division I level.”

Waiting to be activities director

After he didn’t get the Freedom football job that went to Overton around 2015, Staples kept coaching at Forest Park, eventually becoming defensive coordinator. He also began studying for a

New Colgan football coach named soon

Colgan High’s new football coach is expected to be named before the end of January.

Activities director Nathan Staples says there are 25 applicants with interviews scheduled immediately with Principal Tim Healey.

“Dr. Healey, a few other trusted staff members, and I have narrowed down who we would like to bring in. We are hoping to have someone named by mid- to late January. This will allow them to get in the school, meet the kids and get their offseason program rolling,” Staples said. master’s degree in educational leadership.

In 2018 Staples moved to Colgan as a teacher on special assignment, serving in that role for two years. After a year in the Virginia Beach system, he came back to Colgan in 2021 to be an administrative intern, prepping for the activities director gig.

Now the job is his.

“I had a lot of people in my past who saw me being successful in this position, seeing something in me that I didn’t even see in myself,” Staples said.

Lots to do

In addition to overseeing the Sharks’ athletic programs, Staples is responsible for the school’s clubs and other activities, such as the Center of Fine & Performing Arts.

“I carry my work cell phone with me at all times now,” he said. “I’ve got so many calls and text messages and emails, all the back-and-forth with the coaches, referees, people working events.

There’s a lot of things to consider.”

“We have a standard of excellence,” he said.

“We put in the time and effort to make sure our students know that they’re being treated with the best we have to offer.”

OBITUARIES Mancy Cook, Jr.

William Homer George December 30, 2021 William H. George passed away on December 30 in his room at Westminster Canterbury of the Blue Ridge in Charlottesville.

Bill is survived by his loving wife Glenda, of Charlottesville; his children, Jeffrey (Allison) George and Sarah (Ripan) Chaudhary; three grandchildren, Will George, Meira Chaudhary, and Avni Chaudhary; and his sisters, Linda (Wayne) Arrington and Joan Flory, along with their families.

Bill was born on February 7th, 1942, to Homer and Becky (Miller) George of Bristersburg, Virginia. He graduated from Cedar Lee High School in 1959, where he won letters in football, basketball, baseball, and track. He attended Boys State in the summer following his junior year, and was elected Student Body President during his senior year.

Bill was accepted into the United States Military Academy, where he was assigned to company G-2. A 30-day assignment with the 16th Infantry in Germany the summer before his third year convinced him to pursue the Corps of Engineers. He graduated from West Point with the Class of 1963. After graduation, Bill completed the Engineer Officers Basic Course (EOBC) and jump school before reporting to his first assignment at Fort Campbell in Kentucky with the 101st Airborne Division. He rose to Company Executive Officer for B Company of the 326th Engineer Battalion.

In June of 1965, Bill began his first foreign tour of duty, in South Korea with the 36th Engineer Group under I Corps. He served first as Liaison Officer to the 109th Battalion, then as A Company Commander in the 11th Engineer Battalion, during which time he was promoted to Captain.

After his 13-month tour, Bill returned to the US and reported to Fort Belvoir in Virginia for the Engineer Officer Career Course (EOCC). After completion, he remained at Fort Belvoir as Operations Officer for the Department of Mechanical and Technical Equipment (“Mech and Tech”).

In the spring of 1968, Bill was assigned to be Operations Officer for an Engineer Battalion in Pleiku, Vietnam. However, he was rerouted to USARV Headquarters in Long Binh, where he became Assistant Deputy Headquarters Commandant. After serving in this role for 6 months, he accepted the position of Company Commander of the 523rd Port Construction Company in Vung Tau. Bill was awarded the Bronze Star for his service in Vietnam. He submitted his resignation in 1969, but was involuntarily retained for one year, which he served at Fort Benning in Georgia. There he met Ouida McClendon, who gave him the phone number for her college roommate, Glenda Norris. Bill and Glenda were married on December 5th, 1970, at Trinity Presbyterian Church in Arlington, Virginia, and celebrated 51 years of marriage this December.

Having enjoyed construction management in his last assignment in Vietnam, Bill began working for De Leuw, Cather & Co, spending his first 6 years on the DC Metro project. During this time, he achieved a Masters Degree in Construction Management from George Washington University. His next project was the Northeast Corridor (the high-speed train system between DC and Boston and the busiest passenger rail system in the country), during which time Parsons acquired DeLeuw-Cather to form one of the nation’s largest engineering & construction firms. Bill ended up as Senior Manager in charge of Operations along the entire corridor before the project wound down after 8 years.

Bill served as Deputy Project Manager on the Los Angeles Metro project starting in 1984, during which time he was promoted to Vice President. In 1989 he took over operation of the Raleigh, NC office, while also working on projects across the country and internationally, including two trips to Tanzania. In 1995, he was asked to take over the Midwest Regional Office in Chicago, which came with a promotion to Senior Vice President. Three years later, he moved back to the DC area to serve as Operations Manager for the entire Parsons Transportation Group. He retired in 2004 at the age of 62.

Bill was a devout Christian, a dedicated reader of the Bible, and spent his life demonstrating the love, compassion, humility, and service that Jesus Christ modeled. He was an active member of the Presbyterian and United Methodist churches in the many places he lived. He was an ordained Elder in the Presbyterian church. He had a particular passion for supporting international mission work, and traveled to Africa twice to support programs there. He “unretired” for three years to supervise a major expansion of the Vienna Presbyterian Church, retiring again in 2007. Since 2010 he had been an resident and active member of the community at WCBR, where he continued his lifelong enjoyment of golf.

There will be a graveside service for close family on Wednesday, January 5th at 2:00 PM. A memorial service will be planned for the future, to be held at WCBR. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for donations in Bill’s name to the American Cancer Society.
