A decision could come this week to allow toxic water at Possum Point Power Station near Dumfries to be treated and released into Potomac River.
Virginia’s Water Control Board will meet at 9:30 a.m. Thursday in Richmond to review a permit to allow plant owner Dominion Virginia Power to treat and release from coal ash ponds into the river, and Quantico Creek.
The threat of a jest a few flakes falling from the sky overnight was enough to get Virginia highway crews out to treat roads.
Crews were spotted laying down a salt-brine solution on Interstate 95 this morning.

Good morning – The Annual Nationwide Point in Time Count of the Homeless population is January 27th here in our community.
The wonderful folks at Streetlight Ministries are preparing care packages for the homeless and need your help. They are collecting new gloves, hats, socks, hand/feet warmers, small blankets, head lights and backpacks for the care packages. These donations are needed by January 14th and then volunteers will assemble the packages. So here’s two ways to help a neighbor by gathering or assembling these basic winter products. Please call Gabriele or Rose at (703) 491-2288 to volunteer or simply drop off the donations by January 14th.
