A statement from Fairfax County Solid Waste Management Program: 

The Covanta Fairfax, Inc. waste-to-energy facility, located at the county’s I-95 Solid Waste Management Complex in Lorton, has been closed due to damage from an extensive fire at the facility last week. Damage assessment and plans to restore the facility to operation are ongoing. Until more information about the condition of the facility is made available, it should be considered closed indefinitely, as a practical matter.


STAFFORD, Va. — Mark Dudenhefer will run to reclaim a seat on the Stafford County Board of Supervisors.

In his fall 2017 run for the Garrisonville District seat, the Republican said he plans to bring back a focus on local transportation issue to the Board. Improving the county’s roadways was his signature issue after he was first elected to the Board in 2005.


From Stafford County Sheriff’s Office Spokeswoman M.C. Moncure:

The phone lines are having intermittent issues.  Not all calls are impacted.  We are asking people if no one answers the line, then to call back immediately.  The technicians have arrived and are on site right now determining the problem.  I don’t have an estimate on the length of time until we are back to 100%. We will continue to update social media as we have new information.
