add $500M worth of pollution control equipment Nov. 22 Dominion Resources Inc. plans to spend $500 million on pollution control equipment for coal-fired power plants in Virginia, the company said. The additional emission controls will reduce sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide and mercury emissions to meet new requirements of the federal Clean Air Interstate and Mercury rules, the Richmond, Va.-based energy company said. The new equipment will be installed between 2008 and 2015, Dominion said. "Dominion is proud of its long history of environmental stewardship," said Thomas F. Farrell II, president and chief operating officer. "Today, we are setting a new standard in our pledge to be a leader nationally in the effort to improve air quality."
