North Stafford, Va. –– Wonder what’s up with those low-flying helicopters buzzing your house today? Relax. They’re not looking for anything sinister.
It’s just Dominion Virginia Power checking the power lines in the region.
“This is the time of the year when we do line inspection to see if everything’s OK,” said Dominion Virginia Power media relations manager Le-Ha Anderson.
Anderson said the helicopters are patrolling the transmission lines from Fredericksburg through Dumfries until 5:30 p.m. today.
“It’s part of our pro-active reliability program,” she said.
