Utility Pole Ownership After Burying Electrical Lines

Hello,

Dominion Energy is planning to bury its electrical lines on our private road at 2715 Happy Hollow Drive, Midlothian, VA 23113. Comcast/Xfinity currently has facilities attached to the same poles.

To understand future responsibility for the infrastructure, could you please confirm the following for utility pole VPIGI4 on Happy Hollow Drive:

  1. Whether Comcast currently has an active pole attachment agreement for this pole

  2. If Dominion removes its electric facilities and abandons this pole, would Comcast become the owner of record, or does Comcast decline pole ownership in this scenario

  3. Whether Comcast has any plans to underground or relocate its facilities as part of this Dominion project

  4. If Comcast will not assume future pole ownership, which utility would remain responsible for pole maintenance, inspections, and structural repairs

We are trying to understand long-term maintenance and liability implications for the poles along our private road once Dominion completes the undergrounding work.

Thank you very much for your help.

Sincerely,
SK

2715 Happy Hollow Drive
Midlothian, VA 23113
