THE ATLANTIC COAST PIPELINE
Providing Access to Plentiful Natural Gas
The United States is home to abundant natural
gas supplies, particularly in West Virginia, Ohio and
Pennsylvania. The Atlantic Coast Pipeline proposes to
tap into this abundant supply of clean- burning natural
gas to help meet the urgent energy needs of our region.
Increasing access to natural gas is important to the
environment and the economy in our region. With
federal regulations calling for cleaner air, the Atlantic
Coast Pipeline will provide a critically needed supply
of clean- burning natural gas, which when combusted
produces half the emissions of coal. It will also allow
reliable generation of critical back -up sources of
electricity when renewable sources cannot meet energy
demand. The pipeline will fuel cost savings for energy
consumers and economic development across the
region. Additionally, pipeline construction will create
thousands of jobs as well as significant new, long -term
revenue for state and local governments throughout
West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina.

BRIDGING SUPPLY & DEMAND
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline will draw from one of the largest natural gas supplies in the world. As
proposed, the pipeline route will travel from Harrison County in West Virginia, southeast through
Virginia with an extension to Chesapeake, VA, and then south through North Carolina to Robeson
County. Surveys are conducted along the pipeline's proposed path to identify the best possible
route with the greatest environmental, cultural and historic protections possible.

Many alternatives, variations and adjustments are taken into account when determining the final
path of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline. As such, the route alignment above is subject to change.

WHY BUILD THE ATLANTIC
�M■
- Our region has urgent energy needs.
Our region is part of a national trend of unprecedented increasing demand
for energy resources driven in part by many more homes and businesses
to heat and power. In fact, the U.S. Energy Information Administration
estimates that energy demand will grow 29 percent by 2040. The Atlantic
Coast Pipeline is an interstate natural gas pipeline that will help multiple
public utilities in Virginia and North Carolina meet energy needs that exceed
the current system's capacity.
Natural gas is a clean- burning energy source.
For years, the leading source of electricity to power homes and workplaces
has been coal. With federal regulations calling for cleaner air, energy
providers are turning to natural gas, which produces half the emissions
of coal. In the near future, natural gas is projected to surpass coal as the
number one fuel source for electricity generation nationwide.
Pipelines safely transport natural gas.
44> In Virginia, there are already 2.5 times as many miles of natural gas pipeline as
there are miles of interstate highways, yet few people ever notice. According
to the U.S. Department of Transportation, underground pipelines are the
safest mode to transport natural gas — safer than highway, rail and water.

COAST PIPELINE?
Renewables require reliable back up power.
Whether or not the sun is shining or the wind is blowing, we can always
count on natural gas. Providers can struggle to keep up with demand
and there's no easy way of storing massive amounts of electricity for
peak times. Meeting this demand with reliable, abundant, domestic and
clean- burning natural gas allows us the flexibility to continue working to
incorporate renewable energy sources into a balanced energy portfolio.
Abundant natural gas supplies lead to savings.
Broad scientific consensus indicates that we have enough natural gas
to power America for generations to come. The Marcellus and Utica
shale formations make up one of the world's largest natural gas supplies.
Abundant natural gas supplies lower costs to power our region. The Atlantic
Coast Pipeline will stabilize electricity prices and increase consumer savings.
Natural gas can secure our energy future.
Diversifying domestic energy sources is an important strategy in protecting
our energy future and maintaining energy independence. The Atlantic Coast
Pipeline will add low -cost natural gas to our diverse energy portfolio and
decrease our nation's dependence on imported fuel.

A Commitment to Pipeline Safety
Nothing is more important than safety. Today's natural gas pipelines must meet strict standards and are subject
to rigorous federal and state safety testing. As individual sections of pipe are welded, each weld is X -rayed
to make sure it is sound. Before the pipe is put into operation, it is thoroughly inspected and pressure tested.
Additionally, government- mandated operator qualification standards ensure proper training for employees with
critical safety functions. Dominion, the pipeline's operator, will conduct community awareness programs and
coordinate with local emergency response agencies. The facilities will be regularly monitored by air and foot
patrol (pictured above) as well as inspected from the inside by a tool (pictured below) that gathers data to assure
the integrity of the structure by locating any deficiencies such as dents, gouges and variations in thickness while
traveling through the pipeline. The pipeline will also be monitored 24/7 from Dominion's gas control center.

Preserving Our Natural, Cultural and Historical Resources
Along the route, best -in -class restoration and mitigation techniques will be used to protect native species, preserve
wetland and water resources, control erosion and minimize emissions. The design, construction and operation of the
pipeline will strive to exceed compliance with all federal procedures and regulations to minimize and mitigate the impact
that the pipeline route has on natural resources, areas of historical and cultural significance and wildlife.
Minimizing Impacts To The Community
The project team continues work to minimize the impact of the pipeline through surveys of route alternatives,
community meetings and important feedback from landowners. Construction of best -in -class facilities and state- of -the-
art emission control technology will minimize noise and air quality impact. Landowners will be compensated for impacts
resulting from the construction and operation of the pipeline. The team will consult with land managing agencies,
counties and municipalities to consider and accommodate landowner and residential access during construction.

A PATHWAY TO PROSPERITY
PIPELINE CONSTRUCTION
The economic impact from construction of the pipeline is estimated at $2.7 billion and will support
17,240 direct, indirect and induced jobs across the three -state region. Additionally, the capital
expenditure during this phase is expected to generate $4.2 million annually in total tax revenue
paid to local governments by Atlantic Coast Pipeline, LLC.
PIPELINE OPERATION
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline will pay annual property taxes to every locality through which the
pipeline is located. Estimates show that these areas could cumulatively receive an additional $25
million annually in tax revenue by 2022.
Virginia and North Carolina electricity consumers benefit from the pipeline because of the lower
cost of natural gas to fuel power generation, which lowers energy bills. These individuals, families
and businesses stand to save an estimated $377 million annually, which could generate job
creation that stimulates local economies.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers To Common Questions About the Pipeline
Q Are natural gas pipelines safe?
A According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, underground pipelines are the safest way to transport natural gas — safer than highway, rail,
airborne and waterborne methods of transport.
Q Why not invest only in renewable sources of energy such as wind and solar?
A Renewables are important, But solar and wind cannot be counted on when power is needed around the clock, With federal regulations to
improve air quality resulting in coal -fired power plants lowering production and some shutting down altogether, our region is in need of reliable
energy sources that can meet demand 24 hours a day. Meeting this demand with reliable, abundant, domestic and clean- burning natural gas
allows us the flexibility to continue working to incorporate more and more renewable sources into a balanced energy portfolio.
Q How will my community benefit from the Atlantic Coast Pipeline?
A Virginia and North Carolina consumers could save an estimated $377 million annually on their utility bills. Pipeline construction could result in
as much as $2.7 billion in new economic impact throughout the region, support thousands of new jobs, help stabilize energy costs, promote
economic development, improve air quality and generate significant tax revenues for the localities,
Q Will I be able to see the pipeline?
A The pipeline will be virtually invisible after construction. There are 2,5 times more miles of underground natural gas pipelines than interstate
highways in Virginia. Yet few people ever notice. The Atlantic Coast Pipeline team is giving careful consideration to the areas that the pipeline will
traverse and the communities that it will impact. They are committed to protecting the environment and will work with landowners to address
concerns during construction and operation.
Q Who oversees natural gas pipelines and the application process for the Atlantic Coast Pipeline?
A Natural gas pipelines are heavily regulated; The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), with input from numerous federal and
state environmental agencies, will conduct an in -depth review of the pipeline plan to determine public need and oversee the pipeline during
construction and restoration. The U.S. Department of Transportation closely monitors pipeline safety once in service.
Q Will the natural gas in the Atlantic Coast Pipeline be exported?
A The pipeline will serve customers including gas and electric utilities in West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina — period. Natural gas moved by
this pipeline will not be exported.
