PACK THE ROOM: Stop Dominion's Mega Gas Plant
Start: Monday, August 31, 2026•05:30 PM
Location: Cumberland High School• 15 School Rd, Cumberland, VA 23040 US
Dominion wants to build the largest gas plant in its entire portfolio, in the heart of Virginia, rural Cumberland County. Nearly double the size of any gas plant Dominion has ever built in the state, sprawling across 900 acres on the James River.
Why? Big Tech. Data centers in Northern Virginia are guzzling electricity, and Dominion's answer is to make Cumberland absorb the cost. Virginians would pay for it: higher bills, industrial pollution, and decades tied to volatile gas prices, all to power an industry that isn't paying its own way.
But we can fight this. The Planning Commission hasn't voted yet. They can recommend this project, or they can reject it, and that decision gets made in a room, by people who can be moved by how many of us show up.
Join us Monday, August 31: rally at 5:30 PM, then we walk into the 6:30 PM Planning Commission hearing together.
This isn't just Cumberland's fight. If Dominion gets away with this here, it's the playbook for any Virginia community next. Let's pack the room and show them exactly how many of us say no.
RSVP now, share with a friend, then bring five people with you.
Please wear yellow to help us demonstrate the power of this group to the Planning Commission.
