Valley Link battle continues in Orange County, VA

On March 24, the Orange County (VA) Board of Supervisors and Planning Commission held a join meeting with representatives from Dominion Energy. The purpose of the meeting was to get substantive answers to questions about the proposed Valley Link transmission line that would plow through Orange County farms, fields and lawns on its 115-mile route between Campbell and Culpeper counties. In this episode of the Byrdcast, I talked with J. Bryan Nicol, chair of the board of supervisors, the day after the meeting. He expressed his dismay at Dominion Energy's seeming lack of preparation and lack of interest in the proceedings.
