Jason Woodby, a high school teacher, and his wife live about five miles from the site of a proposed 1,000-megawatt natural gas power plant in Chesterfield County, Virginia. They became concerned after attending an open house meeting held by Dominion Energy, one of the largest utilities in the country, where it was revealed that the plant is estimated to produce high levels of pollutants such as nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxide.
“We’re worried about the pollutants and the impact on the health of our community,” Woodby said.
