CPV's Chris Ganley, who been in charge of the Warren County project, said the company still opposes the transmission line.

He said CPV pulled its testimony because it is a company with limited resources, and it had already spent a lot of time and money battling the power line in West Virginia.Ganley said that if the line is defeated in West Virginia, the Virginia case will be moot because the line must run through both states as well as Pennsylvania.

Ganley declined to comment on whether the terms of the sale to Dominion required CPV to withdraw its opposition at the Virginia hearing.

He said the negotiation over the Warren County project began in September, when privately held CPV approached Dominion.

"[Energy] prices change in real time, and with that price changing there is a point where it becomes not profitable to continue operation," said Chris Ganley, a CPV director.

CPV hopes to begin construction in spring 2008 and bring the plant online by the end of 2010, Ganley said.

According to CPV representative Chris Ganley, the changes CPV has requested will affect noise levels, landscaping, traffic management and environmental conditions.

One of the most significant changes proposed concerned noise levels, which CPV agreed to lower from 80 to 75 decibels.

"In addition, the 75 decibels is 5 decibels less than the thresholds imposed on the industrial neighbors," Ganley said.

There are no changes we can make to that," Ganley said.

Any modification would reinitiate the air permit process, costing the project at least another few years, Ganley said.
