Incidental Take Permit to Virginia Electric and Power Company, D.B.A. Dominion Virginia Power

Dominion Chesterfield Power Station in Chester, VA is a coal-fueled power generating facility. The requested permit would be for the incidental take of ESA-listed Atlantic sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus oxyrinchus) from the Chesapeake Bay Distinct Population Segment.

The facility is requesting the permit be issued for a duration of 10 years.
