If you're a Dominion Energy customer, the surcharge you pay to finance its offshore wind farm will start coming down next year. That's when all of the farm's turbines will be up and running.

Dominion also figured in a Monday evening outage at a Richmond DPU pump station. Water pressure is returning to normal in parts of the city. DPU says it remains on generator power while Dominion troubleshoots and works to restore commercial electrical service.
