Activists blockade Dominion's Richmond HQ against Atlantic Coast Pipeline

Dominion is not only building a fracked gas export plant at Cove Point, MD, they also are seeking to build the "Atlantic Coast Pipeline" to transport some of that fracked gas. The pipeline would desecrate Native American burial grounds as well as promote more fracking. Shortly after 7 AM on the 23ed of February, over 50 activists blocked off access by car to Dominion Resources’ Tredegar Campus in Richmond, Virginia.

The Atlantic Coast Pipeline is intended to move gas from West Virginia (where there is a fracking boom) through Virginia and into North Carolina. Phil Cunningham of Prince Edward County said "This is our Keystone XL, and we will stop it."
