Dominion Power held a public meeting at the Fork Union Community Center on Thursday night (April 29) to provide an update on its plans for the 6.2 million cubic feet of coal ash stored at their Bremo facility.
About a dozen residents, masked and socially distanced, attended the meeting.
The toxic ash, a byproduct of Bremo’s eight decades as a coal-fired power plant, is currently stored in what’s called the North Ash Pond near the now-idle facility. Because this pond has no bottom liner, toxic material and heavy metals can potentially leach into the groundwater and the nearby James River.
