COMBINED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Dominion Energy, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, is one of the nation’s largest producers and transporters of energy. Dominion Energy’s operations are conducted through various subsidiaries, including Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas. Dominion Energy’s operations also include DESC, an equity investment in Atlantic Coast Pipeline and regulated gas distribution operations primarily in the eastern and Rocky Mountain regions of the U.S. Dominion Energy’s nonregulated operations include merchant generation and retail energy marketing operations. Virginia Power is a regulated public utility that generates, transmits and distributes electricity for sale in Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. Dominion Energy Gas is a holding company that conducts business activities through FERC-regulated interstate natural gas transmission pipeline and underground storage systems in the eastern and Rocky Mountain regions of the U.S., as well as the Cove Point LNG Facility. In addition, Dominion Energy Gas owns a 50% noncontrolling interest in both Iroquois and White River Hub. See Note 3 for additional information on the Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
As permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain certain condensed financial information and exclude certain footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In the Companies’ opinion, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly their financial position at March 31, 2020 and their results of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature unless otherwise noted.
The Companies make certain estimates and assumptions in preparing their Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The Companies’ accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include, after eliminating intercompany transactions and balances, their accounts, those of their respective majority-owned subsidiaries and non-wholly-owned entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. For certain partnership structures, income is allocated based on the liquidation value of the underlying contractual arrangements. At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy owns 50% of the voting interests in Four Brothers and Three Cedars and has a controlling financial interest over the entities through its right to control operations. GIP’s ownership interest in Four Brothers and Three Cedars, Terra Nova Renewable Partners’ 33% interest in certain Dominion Energy merchant solar projects, Brookfield’s 25% interest in Cove Point (effective December 2019) and the non-Dominion Energy held interest in Dominion Energy Midstream (through January 2019) are reflected as noncontrolling interest in Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Terra Nova Renewable Partners has a future option to buy all or a portion of Dominion Energy’s remaining 67% ownership in certain merchant projects upon the occurrence of certain events, none of which are expected to occur in the next 12 months. Brookfield’s 25% interest in Cove Point (effective December 2019) and the public’s ownership interest in Dominion Energy Midstream (through January 2019) are reflected as noncontrolling interest in Dominion Energy Gas’ Consolidated Financial Statements.
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Information for quarterly periods is affected by seasonal variations in sales, rate changes, electric fuel and other energy-related purchases, purchased gas expenses and other factors.
Certain amounts in the Companies’ 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2020 presentation for comparative purposes; however, such reclassifications did not affect the Companies’ net income, total assets, liabilities, equity or cash flows.
Amounts disclosed for Dominion Energy are inclusive of Virginia Power and/or Dominion Energy Gas, where applicable. There have been no significant changes from Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, with the exception of the items described below.

Property, Plant and Equipment
In January 2019, Virginia Power committed to a plan to retire certain automated metering reading infrastructure associated with its electric operations before the end of its estimated useful life and replace such equipment with more current AMI technology. As a result, Virginia Power recorded a charge of $160 million ($119 million after-tax), included in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income. This charge is considered a component of Virginia Power’s base rates deemed recovered under the GTSA, subject to review as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Virginia Power’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
 
In March 2019, Virginia Power committed to retire certain electric generating units before the end of their useful lives and completed the retirement of certain units at six facilities representing 1,292 MW of electric generating capacity, which had previously been placed in cold reserve. An additional unit at Possum Point power station will be retired after it meets its capacity obligation to PJM in 2021. As a result, Virginia Power recorded a charge of $369 million ($275 million after-tax), primarily included in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income. This charge is considered a component of Virginia Power’s base rates deemed recovered under the GTSA, subject to review as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Virginia Power’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
 
In March 2020, Virginia Power committed to retire certain coal- and oil-fired generating units before the end of their useful lives based on economic and other factors, including but not limited to market power prices and the VCEA. These units will be retired after they meet their capacity obligations to PJM in 2023. As a result, Virginia Power recorded a charge of $754 million ($561 million after-tax), primarily included in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income. This charge is considered a component of Virginia Power’s base rates deemed recovered under the GTSA, subject to review as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Virginia Power’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In the first quarter of 2020, Virginia Power updated depreciation rates for its nuclear plants to reflect lower depreciation rates as a result of the expected approval of license extensions from the NRC. This adjustment resulted in a decrease of $8 million ($6 million after-tax) in depreciation expense in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Statements of Income and a $0.01 increase in Dominion Energy’s EPS, for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This revision is expected to decrease annual depreciation expense by approximately $31 million ($23 million after-tax) and increase Dominion Energy’s EPS by $0.03 for the year ended December 31, 2020.
 
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if counterparties fail to perform their contractual obligations. In order to minimize overall credit risk, credit policies are maintained, including the evaluation of counterparty financial condition, collateral requirements and the use of standardized agreements that facilitate the netting of cash flows associated with a single counterparty. In addition, counterparties may make available collateral, including letters of credit or cash held as margin deposits, as a result of exceeding agreed-upon credit limits, or may be required to prepay the transaction.
 
Effective January 2020, expected credit losses are estimated and recorded based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of financial assets held at amortized cost as well as expected credit losses on commitments with respect to financial guarantees.
 
Investments
Debt and Equity Securities with Readily Determinable Fair Value
Dominion Energy accounts for and classifies investments in debt securities as trading or available-for-sale securities. Virginia Power classifies investments in debt securities as available-for-sale securities.
 
• Debt securities classified as trading securities include securities held by Dominion Energy in rabbi trusts associated with certain deferred compensation plans. These securities are reported in other investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with net realized and unrealized gains and losses included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 
• Debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities include all other debt securities, primarily comprised of securities held in the nuclear decommissioning trusts. These investments are reported at fair value in nuclear decommissioning trust funds in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses (including any credit-related impairments) on investments held in Virginia Power’s nuclear decommissioning trusts are deferred to a regulatory asset or liability as applicable for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation. For all other available-for-sale debt securities, including those held in Dominion Energy’s merchant generation nuclear decommissioning trusts, net realized gains and losses (including any credit-related impairments) are included in other income and unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of AOCI, after-tax.
 
In determining realized gains and losses for debt securities, the cost basis of the security is based on the specific identification method.
 
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values include securities held by Dominion Energy in rabbi trusts associated with certain deferred compensation plans and securities held by Dominion Energy and Virginia Power in the nuclear decommissioning trusts. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record all equity securities with a readily determinable fair value, or for which they are permitted to estimate fair value using NAV (or its equivalent), at fair value in nuclear decommissioning trust funds and other investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power may elect a measurement alternative for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value. Under the measurement alternative, equity securities are reported at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power qualitatively assess equity securities reported using the measurement alternative to determine whether an investment is impaired on an ongoing basis. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities held in Virginia Power’s nuclear decommissioning trusts are deferred to a regulatory asset or liability, as applicable, for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation. For all other equity securities, including those held in Dominion Energy’s merchant generation nuclear decommissioning trusts and rabbi trusts, net realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 
28

Equity Securities without Readily Determinable Fair Values
The Companies account for illiquid and privately held securities without readily determinable fair values under either the equity method or cost method. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values include:
 
• Equity method investments when the Companies have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ investments are included in investments in equity method affiliates in their Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas record equity method adjustments in other income and earnings from equity method investees, respectively, in their Consolidated Statements of Income, including their proportionate share of investee income or loss, gains or losses resulting from investee capital transactions, amortization of certain differences between the carrying value and the equity in the net assets of the investee at the date of investment and other adjustments required by the equity method.
 
• Cost method investments when Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s investments are included in other investments and nuclear decommissioning trust funds. Cost method investments are reported at cost less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.
 
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
The Companies periodically review their equity method investments to determine whether a decline in fair value should be considered other-than-temporary. If a decline in the fair value of any equity method investment is determined to be other-than-temporary, the investment is written down to its fair value at the end of the reporting period.
 
Credit Impairment
Effective January 2020, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power periodically review their available-for-sale debt securities to determine whether a decline in fair value should be considered credit related. If a decline in the fair value of any available-for-sale debt security is determined to be credit related, the credit-related impairment is recorded to an allowance included in nuclear decommissioning trust funds in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of the reporting period, with such allowance for credit losses subject to reversal in subsequent evaluations.
 
Using information obtained from their nuclear decommissioning trust fixed-income investment managers, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record in earnings, or defer as applicable for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation, any unrealized loss for a debt security when the manager intends to sell the debt security or it is more-likely-than-not that the manager will have to sell the debt security before recovery of its fair value up to its cost basis. If that is not the case, but the debt security is deemed to have experienced a credit loss, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record the credit loss in earnings with the remaining non-credit portion of the unrealized loss recorded in AOCI. Credit losses are evaluated primarily by considering the credit ratings of the issuer, prior instances of non-performance by the issuer and other factors.

Note 3. Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisition of SCANA
In January 2019, Dominion Energy issued 95.6 million shares of Dominion Energy common stock, valued at $6.8 billion, representing 0.6690 of a share of Dominion Energy common stock for each share of SCANA common stock, in connection with the completion of the SCANA Combination. SCANA, through its regulated subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity in the central, southern and southwestern portions of South Carolina and in the distribution of natural gas in North Carolina and South Carolina. In addition, at the closing of the SCANA Combination, SCANA marketed natural gas to retail customers in the southeast U.S. Following completion of the SCANA Combination, SCANA operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dominion Energy. In addition, SCANA’s debt totaled $6.9 billion at closing. The SCANA Combination expanded Dominion Energy’s portfolio of regulated electric generation, transmission and distribution and regulated natural gas distribution infrastructure operations.
See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for more information on the SCANA Combination, including merger approval and conditions, information on assets acquired and liabilities assumed and purchase price allocation. In addition, see Note 17 for a discussion of certain legal proceedings involving Dominion Energy, SCANA or DESC relating to events occurring before closing of the SCANA Combination.
29

In accordance with the SCANA Merger Approval Order, Dominion Energy incurred certain charges to its Consolidated Statements of Income for the following:
 	•	In the first quarter of 2019, DESC recorded a reduction in operating revenue and a corresponding regulatory liability of $1.0 billion representing a refund of amounts previously collected from retail electric customers of DESC for the NND Project to be credited over an estimated 11-year period, effective January 2019, As a result, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statement of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 includes a $756 million after-tax charge.	
 	•	Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery of $105 million of certain property, plant and equipment associated with the NND Project. As a result, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 includes a charge of $105 million ($79 million after-tax), included in impairment of assets and other charges.	
 	•	Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery of $264 million of certain income tax-related regulatory assets associated with the NND Project.  As a result, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statement of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 includes a charge of $198 million included in income tax expense.	
Results of Operations and Unaudited Pro Forma Information
The impact of the SCANA Combination on Dominion Energy’s operating revenue was an increase of $914 million and $170 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The impact of the SCANA Combination on net income attributable to Dominion Energy was an increase of $54 million and a decrease of $1.1 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Dominion Energy incurred merger and integration-related costs of $19 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, recorded in other operations and maintenance expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, Dominion Energy incurred merger and integration-related costs of which $115 million was recorded in other operations and maintenance expense and $9 million was recorded in interest and related charges in the Consolidated Statements of Income. These costs consist of professional fees, charitable contribution commitments, employee-related expenses, certain financing costs and other miscellaneous costs.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information reflects the consolidated results of operations of Dominion Energy assuming the SCANA Combination had taken place on January 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations that would have been achieved or the future consolidated results of operations of the combined company.

Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring
The Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring is considered to be a reorganization of entities under common control. As a result, Dominion Energy Gas’ basis in DCP and DMLPHCII, which includes the general partner of Dominion Energy Midstream, a controlling 75% interest in Cove Point, DECG, Dominion Energy Questar Pipeline, a 50% noncontrolling interest in White River Hub and a 25.93% noncontrolling interest in Iroquois, is equal to Dominion Energy’s cost basis in the assets and liabilities of such entities since the applicable inception dates of common control. In November 2019, following completion of the Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring, DCP and DMLPHCII are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Dominion Energy Gas and therefore are consolidated by Dominion Energy Gas. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes of Dominion Energy Gas have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results and financial position of DCP and DMLPHCII. The 25% interest in Cove Point retained by Dominion Energy, and subsequently sold to Brookfield in December 2019, and the non-Dominion Energy held interest in Dominion Energy Midstream (through January 2019) are reflected as noncontrolling interest.

The Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring includes the disposition of East Ohio and DGP by Dominion Energy Gas in November 2019. This restructuring represents a strategic shift in the operations of Dominion Energy Gas as Dominion Energy Gas’ operations consist of LNG import/export and storage and regulated gas transmission and storage operations. As a result, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes of Dominion Energy Gas have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results and financial position of East Ohio and DGP as discontinued operations until November 2019, presented within the Corporate and Other segment. As the Dominion Energy Gas Restructuring is considered to be a reorganization of entities under common control, Dominion Energy Gas has reflected the disposition as an equity transaction.

Contract assets represent an entity’s right to consideration in exchange for goods and services that the entity has transferred to a customer. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy’s contract asset balances were $26 million and $28 million, respectively. Dominion Energy Gas’ contract asset balances were $37 million and $40 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ contract assets are recorded in other deferred charges and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities represent an entity’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the entity has received consideration, or the amount that is due, from the customer. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy’s contract liability balances were $86 million and $123 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Virginia Power’s contract liability balances were $23 million and $24 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy Gas’ contract liability balances were $21 million and $20 million, respectively. The Companies’ contract liabilities are recorded in other current liabilities and other deferred credits and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Companies recognize revenue as they fulfill their obligations to provide service to their customers.  During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Dominion Energy recognized revenue of $105 million and $85 million, respectively, from the beginning contract liability balances. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Virginia Power recognized $24 million and $22 million, respectively, from the beginning contract liability balance. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, Dominion Energy Gas recognized $1 million and $25 million from the beginning contract liability balance.
Note 5. Income Taxes

For the Companies’ rate-regulated entities, deferred taxes will reverse at the weighted average rate used to originate the deferred tax liability, which in some cases will be 35%. The Companies have recorded an estimate of excess deferred income tax amortization in 2020. The reversal of these excess deferred income taxes will impact the effective tax rate and rates charged to customers. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for more information.
In March 2020, the CARES Act was enacted which includes several significant business tax provisions that modify or temporarily suspend certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Reform Act.  The CARES Act provisions are intended to improve cash flow and liquidity by, among other things, providing a temporary five-year carryback for certain net operating losses, accelerating the refund of previously generated corporate alternative minimum tax credits and temporarily loosening the business interest limitation to 50% of adjusted taxable income for certain businesses.  While Dominion Energy intends to utilize the income tax provisions of the CARES Act to accelerate the recognition of certain tax attributes, where applicable, they are not expected to provide a material benefit.
In connection with the SCANA Combination, Dominion Energy committed to forgo, or limit, the recovery of certain income tax-related regulatory assets associated with the NND Project.  Dominion Energy’s 2019 effective tax rate reflects deferred income tax expense of $198 million in satisfaction of this commitment.  Dominion Energy’s 2019 effective tax rate also reflects the changes in consolidated state income taxes resulting from the SCANA Combination.
As of March 31, 2020, there have been no material changes in the Companies’ unrecognized tax benefits or possible changes that could reasonably be expected to occur during the next twelve months. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, for a discussion of these unrecognized tax benefits.
 
Note 6. Earnings Per Share
The following table presents the calculation of Dominion Energy’s basic and diluted EPS:
 
 	 	Three Months Ended March 31,	 	
 	 	2020	 	 	2019	 	
(millions, except EPS)	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Net loss attributable to Dominion Energy	 	$	(270	)	 	$	(680	)	
Preferred stock dividends (see Note 16)	 	 	(16	)	 	 	—	 	
Net loss attributable to Dominion Energy – Basic & Diluted	 	 	(286	)	 	 	(680	)	
Average shares of common stock outstanding – Basic & Diluted	 	 	838.2	 	 	 	793.1	 	
Earnings Per Common Share – Basic & Diluted	 	$	(0.34	)	 	$	(0.86	)	
 
As a result of a net loss for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the issuance of common stock under potentially-dilutive securities, as discussed in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, was considered antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements
The Companies’ fair value measurements are made in accordance with the policies discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. See Note 9 in this report for further information about the Companies’ derivatives and hedge accounting activities.
The Companies enter into certain physical and financial forwards, futures, options and swaps, which are considered Level 3 as they have one or more inputs that are not observable and are significant to the valuation. The discounted cash flow method is used to value Level 3 physical and financial forwards, futures, and swaps contracts. An option model is used to value Level 3 physical options. The discounted cash flow model for forwards, futures, and swaps calculates mark-to-market valuations based on forward market prices, original transaction prices, volumes, risk-free rate of return, and credit spreads. The option model calculates mark-to-market valuations using variations of the Black-Scholes option model. The inputs into the models are the forward market prices, implied price volatilities, risk-free rate of return, the option expiration dates, the option strike prices, the original sales prices, and volumes. For Level 3 fair value measurements, certain forward market prices and implied price volatilities are considered unobservable.

The following table presents Dominion Energy’s quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements at March 31, 2020.  The range and weighted average are presented in dollars for market price inputs and percentages for price volatility.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Substantially all of the Companies’ financial instruments are recorded at fair value, with the exception of the instruments described below, which are reported at historical cost. Estimated fair values have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies considered appropriate by management. The carrying amount of cash, restricted cash and equivalents, customer and other receivables, affiliated receivables, short-term debt, affiliated current borrowings, payables to affiliates and accounts payable are representative of fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. For the Companies' financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value, the carrying amounts and estimated fair values are as follows:
 
 	 	March 31, 2020	 	 	December 31, 2019

(1)	Fair value is estimated using market prices, where available, and interest rates currently available for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. All fair value measurements are classified as Level 2. The carrying amount of debt issuances with short-term maturities and variable rates refinanced at current market rates is a reasonable estimate of their fair value.	
(2)	Carrying amount includes current portions included in securities due within one year and amounts which represent the unamortized debt issuance costs, discount or premium and foreign currency remeasurement adjustments. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, includes the valuation of certain fair value hedges associated with fixed rate debt of $4 million and $4 million, respectively.	
(3)	Carrying amount includes current portions included in securities due within one year and amounts which represent the unamortized debt issuance costs, discount or premium.	
(4)	Carrying amount includes current portions included in securities due within one year and amounts which represent the unamortized debt issuance costs, discount or premium and foreign currency remeasurement adjustments.	
Note 9. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting Activities
The Companies’ accounting policies, objectives and strategies for using derivative instruments are discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. See Note 8 in this report for further information about fair value measurements and associated valuation methods for derivatives.
 
Derivative assets and liabilities are presented gross on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dominion Energy’s derivative contracts include both over-the-counter transactions and those that are executed on an exchange or other trading platform (exchange contracts) and centrally cleared. Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ derivative contracts include over-the-counter transactions. Over-the-counter contracts are bilateral contracts that are transacted directly with a third party. Exchange contracts utilize a financial intermediary, exchange, or clearinghouse to enter, execute, or clear the transactions. Certain over-the-counter and exchange contracts contain contractual rights of setoff through master netting arrangements, derivative clearing agreements, and contract default provisions. In addition, the contracts are subject to conditional rights of setoff through counterparty nonperformance, insolvency, or other conditions.
 
In general, most over-the-counter transactions and all exchange contracts are subject to collateral requirements. Types of collateral for over-the-counter and exchange contracts include cash, letters of credit, and in some cases other forms of security, none of which are subject to restrictions. Cash collateral is used in the table below to offset derivative assets and liabilities.  Certain accounts receivable and accounts payable recognized on the Companies’ Consolidated Balance Sheets, as well as letters of credit and other forms of security, all of which are not included in the tables below, are subject to offset under master netting or similar arrangements and would reduce the net exposure. See Note 18 for further information regarding credit-related contingent features for the Companies’ derivative instruments.

Total	 	$	(651	)	 	$	(38	)	 	 	
 
The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., anticipated sales) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of prices contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in market prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Fair Value Hedges
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings and presented in the same line item. There were no derivative instruments designated in fair value hedges during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Gains and losses on derivatives in fair value hedge relationships were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
 
The following table presents the amounts recorded on the balance sheet related to cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges:

AOCI
The following table presents selected information related to gains (losses) on cash flow hedges included in AOCI in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2020:
 
 	 	AOCI
After-Tax	 	 	Amounts Expected to be
Reclassified to Earnings
During the Next 12
Months After-Tax	 	 	Maximum Term	
(millions)	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Interest rate	 	$	(79	)	 	$	(1	)	 	381 months	
Total	 	$	(79	)	 	$	(1	)	 	 	
 
The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., interest payments) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of interest rates contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in interest rates.

Equity Method Investments
Dominion Energy 
Atlantic Coast Pipeline
In September 2014, Dominion Energy, along with Duke and Southern, announced the formation of Atlantic Coast Pipeline. Atlantic Coast Pipeline is focused on constructing an approximately 600-mile natural gas pipeline running from West Virginia through Virginia to North Carolina. Subsidiaries and affiliates of Dominion Energy, Duke and Southern plan to be customers of the pipeline under 20-year contracts.
In March 2020, Dominion Energy completed the acquisition from Southern of its 5% membership interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline and its 100% ownership interest in Pivotal LNG, Inc., for $184 million in aggregate, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. Pivotal LNG, Inc. includes a 50% noncontrolling interest in JAX LNG, LLC, an LNG supplier in Florida serving the growing marine and truck LNG markets.  Following completion of the acquisition, Dominion Energy owns a 53% noncontrolling membership interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline with Duke owning the remaining interest.  
Atlantic Coast Pipeline continues to be reflected as an equity method investment as the power to direct the activities most significant to Atlantic Coast Pipeline is shared with Duke.  As a result, Dominion Energy has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee.
59

Dominion Energy recorded contributions of $16 million and $95 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, to Atlantic Coast Pipeline. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy had $5 million and $7 million, respectively, of contributions payable to Atlantic Coast Pipeline included within other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In October 2017, Dominion Energy entered into a guarantee agreement to support a portion of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s obligation under its credit facility. See Note 17 for more information.
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project is the subject of challenges in federal courts including, among others, challenges of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project’s biological opinion and incidental take statement, permits providing right of way crossings of certain federal lands, the Army Corps of Engineers 404 permit, the air permit for a compressor station at Buckingham, Virginia, and the FERC order approving the CPCN. Each of these challenges alleges non-compliance on the part of federal and state permitting authorities and adverse ecological consequences if the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project is permitted to proceed. Since December 2018, notable developments in these challenges include a stay in December 2018 issued by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the same court’s July 2019 vacatur of the biological opinion and incidental take statement (which stay and subsequent vacatur halted most project construction activity), U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decisions vacating the permits to cross certain federal forests and the air permit for a compressor station at Buckingham, Virginia, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit’s remand to Army Corps of Engineers of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s Huntington District 404 verification and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit’s remand to the National Park Service of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s Blue Ridge Parkway right-of-way. Atlantic Coast Pipeline continues to vigorously defend these challenges and is coordinating with the federal and state authorities to obtain new authorizations. Atlantic Coast Pipeline continues coordinating and working with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other parties in preparation for a reissuance of the biological opinion and incidental take statement. In June 2019, the Solicitor General of the U.S. and Atlantic Coast Pipeline filed petitions requesting that the Supreme Court of the U.S. hear the case regarding the Appalachian Trail crossing. In February 2020, the Supreme Court of the U.S. heard oral arguments in the case and is expected to issue a ruling no later than June 2020. If a favorable ruling is not received, Atlantic Coast Pipeline is also evaluating possible legislative and administrative remedies to this issue.
Given the legal challenges described above, the project is expected to enter full in-service in early 2022, with project costs estimated to be approximately $8 billion, excluding financing costs. Atlantic Coast Pipeline has reached agreements in principle with major customers to amend the contracted rate to share in certain delay cost increases, pending certain regulatory approvals. Project construction activities, schedules and costs are also subject to uncertainty due to permitting and/or work delays (including due to judicial or regulatory action), abnormal weather and other conditions that could result in further cost or schedule modifications, a suspension of AFUDC for Atlantic Coast Pipeline and/or impairment charges potentially material to Dominion Energy’s cash flows, financial position and/or results of operations.
Blue Racer
In the first quarter of 2019, Dominion Energy received $151 million of additional consideration, including applicable interest, in connection with the sale of Dominion Energy’s 50% limited partnership interest in Blue Racer in December 2018, as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Dominion Energy Gas
Dominion Energy Gas’ equity earnings totaled $15 million and $13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Dominion Energy Gas received distributions of $15 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of Dominion Energy Gas’ investment of $312 million, exceeded its share of underlying equity in net assets by $146 million. The difference reflects equity method goodwill and is not being amortized.
Atlantic Coast Pipeline
DETI provides services to Atlantic Coast Pipeline which totaled $20 million and $31 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, included in operating revenue in Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ Consolidated Statements of Income. Amounts receivable related to these services were $8 million and $7 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, composed entirely of accrued unbilled revenue, included in other receivables in Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 11. Property, Plant and Equipment
Acquisitions of Solar Projects
There have been no updates to acquisitions of solar projects by Dominion Energy or Virginia Power from those discussed in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
 
Acquisition of Gathering and Processing Assets
In March 2020, Wexpro closed on an agreement with a natural gas gathering systems operator to purchase existing natural gas gathering systems including pipelines, compressors and dehydration equipment for total consideration of $38 million. These facilities gather natural gas in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming.

Note 13. Regulatory Matters
 
Regulatory Matters Involving Potential Loss Contingencies
 
As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies are involved in various regulatory matters. Certain regulatory matters may ultimately result in a loss; however, as such matters are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending reviews or orders, and/or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, it is not possible for the Companies to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the Companies cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the regulatory process such that the Companies are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the Companies are able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. Any estimated range is based on currently available information, involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties and may not represent the Companies’ maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such regulatory matters will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current matters not specifically reported below, management does not anticipate that the outcome from such matters would have a material effect on the Companies’ financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

FERC – Gas
DETI
In July 2017, FERC audit staff communicated to DETI that it had substantially completed an audit of DETI’s compliance with the accounting and reporting requirements of FERC’s Uniform System of Accounts and provided a description of matters and preliminary recommendations. In November 2017, the FERC audit staff issued its audit report which could have the potential to result in adjustments which could be material to Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ results of operations. In December 2017, DETI provided its response to the audit report. DETI reached resolution of certain matters with FERC in the fourth quarter of 2018. Pending final resolution of the audit process and a determination by FERC, management is unable to estimate the potential impact of the remaining finding and no amounts have been recognized.
2017 Tax Reform Act
Other than the items discussed below, which are pending or have been resolved during the period, there have been no changes to the 2017 Tax Reform Act matters discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In March 2019, Questar Gas filed with the Utah and Wyoming Commissions as to the impact of excess deferred income taxes resulting from the 2017 Tax Reform Act. Questar Gas proposed to return the 2018 amortization of excess deferred income taxes to customers and to incorporate the remaining excess deferred income tax impact in its next general rate cases in each jurisdiction. In March 2020, the Utah Commission issued an order approving Questar Gas’ proposal to refund the January 2019 through February 2020 amortization of excess deferred income taxes over 12 months beginning in June 2020. In April 2020, at the request of the Wyoming Commission, this matter will be considered in conjunction with the base rate case that was filed in November 2019. This matter is pending.
 
In October 2018, the Ohio Commission issued an order requiring rate-regulated utilities to file an application reflecting the impact of the 2017 Tax Reform Act on current rates by January 1, 2019. In December 2018, East Ohio filed its application proposing an approach to establishing rates and charges by and through which to return tax reform benefits to its customers.  In December 2019, the Ohio Commission issued an order approving customer credits of approximately $600 million that will be shared with customers primarily over the remaining book life of the property to which the excess deferred income taxes relate. In addition, East Ohio will reduce rates approximately $19 million per year to account for the 2017 Tax Reform Act’s impact on its equity return component of rates charged to customers. A tax savings credit, which passes through the reduction in the federal income tax rate under the 2017 Tax Reform Act to customers in accordance with the settlement agreement approved by the Ohio Commission, became effective with the first billing cycle in April 2020.
Other Regulatory Matters
 
Other than the following matters, there have been no significant developments regarding the pending regulatory matters disclosed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
 
Virginia Regulation
Virginia 2020 Legislation
In April 2020, the Governor of Virginia signed into law the VCEA, which along with related legislation forms a comprehensive framework affecting Virginia Power’s operations.  The VCEA replaces Virginia’s voluntary renewable energy portfolio standard for Virginia Power with a mandatory program setting annual renewable energy portfolio standard requirements based on the percentage of total electric energy sold by Virginia Power, excluding existing nuclear generation and certain new carbon-free resources, reaching 100% by the end of 2045.  The VCEA includes related requirements concerning deployment of wind, solar and energy storage resources, as well as provides for certain measures to increase net-metering, including an allocation for low-income customers, incentivizes energy efficiency programs and directs Virginia to participate in a carbon trading program. While the legislation affects several portions of Virginia Power’s operations, key provisions of the GTSA remain in effect, including the triennial review structure and timing, the use of the customer credit reinvestment offset and the $50 million cap on revenue reductions in the first triennial review proceeding. Key provisions of the VCEA and related legislation passed include the following:
 	-	Fossil Fuel Electric Generation:  The legislation mandates Chesterfield Power Station Units 5 & 6 and Yorktown Power Station Unit 3 to be retired by the end of 2024, Altavista, Southampton and Hopewell to be retired by the end of 2028 and Virginia Power’s remaining fossil fuel units to be retired by the end of 2045, unless the retirement of such generating units will compromise grid reliability or security. The legislation also imposes a temporary moratorium on CPCNs for fossil fuel	
66

 		generation, unless the resources are needed for grid reliability. In addition, the Virginia Commission shall determine the amortization period for recovery of any appropriate costs due to the early retirement of any electric generation facilities, which could result in the reversal of previous retirement costs deemed recovered during the review period ending 2020.   As discussed in Note 2, Virginia Power had recorded charges for early retirement of certain coal- and -oil fired generating units in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019. Virginia Power is currently evaluating the prospective impacts to depreciation rates for fossil fuel units that either must or may be retired before the end of their useful lives as a result of the legislation, excluding gas-fired generating facilities that are currently expected to be required for reliability. Any changes in depreciation rates are not expected to have a material impact to Virginia Power’s results of operations or cash flows based on the existing regulatory framework.	
 	-	Renewable Generation: The legislation provides a detailed renewable energy portfolio standard to achieve 100% zero-carbon generation by the end of 2045, excluding existing nuclear generation and certain new carbon-free resources.  Components include requirements to petition the Virginia Commission for approval to construct or acquire new generating capacity to reach 16.1 GW of installed solar and onshore wind by the end of 2035, which includes specific requirements for utility-scale solar of 3.0 GW by the end of 2024, up to 15.0 GW by the end of 2035 and 1.1 GW of small-scale solar by the end of 2035. The legislation deems 2,700 MW of energy storage, including up to 800 MW for any one project which may include a pumped storage facility, by the end of 2035 to be in the public interest. The legislation also deems the construction or purchase of an offshore wind facility constructed off the Virginia coast with a capacity of up to 5,200 MW before 2035 to be in the public interest and provides certain presumptions facilitating cost recovery. The costs of such a facility constructed by the utility with a capacity between 2,500 and 3,000 MW will be presumed reasonably and prudently incurred if the Virginia Commission finds that the project meets competitive procurement requirements, the projected cost of the facility does not exceed a specified industry benchmark and the utility commences construction by the end of 2023 or has a plan for the facility to be in service by the end of 2027. The Virginia Commission must approve all projects to meet those requirements.  	
 	-	Energy Efficiency: The legislation includes an energy efficiency target of 5% energy savings, as measured from a 2019 baseline, through verifiable energy efficiency programs by the end of 2025 with future targets to be set by the Virginia Commission. Virginia Power has the opportunity to offset the lost revenues with margins on program spend if certain targets are achieved and can also seek recovery of the lost revenues associated with energy efficiency programs if such reductions are found to have caused Virginia Power to earn more than 50 basis points below a fair rate of return on its rates for generation and distribution services.	
 	-	Carbon trading program:  The legislation directs Virginia Power to participate in a market-based carbon trading program consistent with RGGI through 2050. All costs of the carbon trading program are recoverable through an environmental rider.	
 
 	-	Low-income customers:  The legislation includes the establishment of a percentage of income payment program to be administered by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development and the Virginia Department of Social Services.  To fund the program, Virginia Power will remit amounts collected from customers under a universal service fee established and set by the Virginia Commission.   As such, this program will not affect Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.	
 
Virginia Power expects to incur significant costs, including capital expenditures, to comply with the legislative requirements discussed above.  The legislation allows for cost recovery under the existing or modified regulatory framework through rate adjustment clauses, rates for generation and distribution services or Virginia Power’s fuel factor, as approved by the Virginia Commission.  Costs allocated to the North Carolina jurisdiction will be recovered, subject to approval by the North Carolina Commission, in accordance with the existing regulatory framework.
Grid Transformation and Security Act of 2018
In July 2018, Virginia Power filed a petition with the Virginia Commission for approval of the first three years of its ten-year plan for electric distribution grid transformation projects as authorized by the GTSA. During the first three years of the plan, Virginia Power proposed to focus on the following seven foundational components of the overall grid transformation plan: (i) smart meters; (ii) customer information platform; (iii) reliability and resilience; (iv) telecommunications infrastructure; (v) cyber and physical security; (vi) predictive analytics; and (vii) emerging technology. The total estimated capital investment during 2019-2021 was $816 million and the proposed operations and maintenance expenses were $102 million. In January 2019, the Virginia Commission issued its final order approving capital spending for the first three years of the plan totaling $68 million on cyber and physical security and related telecommunications infrastructure (Phase IA). The Virginia Commission declined to approve the remainder of the proposed components for the first three years of the plan, the proposed spending for which was not found reasonable and prudent based on the record in the proceeding.

In September 2019, Virginia Power filed a revised plan which includes six components: (i) smart meters; (ii) customer information platform; (iii) grid improvement projects; (iv) telecommunications infrastructure; (v) cyber security; and (vi) a smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program (Phase IB). For Phase IB, the total proposed capital investment during 2019 – 2021 was $503 million and the proposed operations and maintenance investment was $78 million. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission issued an order approving $212 million of costs related to a new customer information platform, targeted grid hardening and corridor improvements, an electric vehicle Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program, cyber security, stakeholder engagement and customer education and denied the costs associated with AMI, self-healing grid and certain other grid hardening projects alleging that the Company did not prove the reasonableness and prudency of these costs. In April 2020, Virginia Power filed a petition for reconsideration of the Virginia Commission’s order and requested clarification of certain matters, including the Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program.  Additionally, Virginia Power requested clarification of certain matters relating to an AMI time-of-use rate and the smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program. Subsequently, in April 2020, the Virginia Commission denied in full Virginia Power’s petition for reconsideration; however, it stated that its March 2020 order contained all necessary approvals for the smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program.  Virginia Power intends to file a revised plan as early as late 2020 that will address the elements needed for a comprehensive plan, as outlined by the Virginia Commission in its order.

Solar Facility Projects
 
In July 2019, Virginia Power filed an application with the Virginia Commission for a CPCN to construct Sadler Solar, which is estimated to cost approximately $146 million, excluding financing costs. Sadler Solar is expected to commence commercial operations, subject to regulatory approvals associated with the project, in the fourth quarter of 2020. Virginia Power also applied for approval of Rider US-4 associated with this project with a proposed $9 million total revenue requirement for the rate year beginning June 1, 2020. In January 2020, the Virginia Commission issued a final order granting the CPCN to construct Sadler Solar, subject to a 20- year performance guarantee of the facility at a 22% solar capacity factor when normalized for force majeure events. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission approved a $7 million total annual revenue requirement.

Virginia Fuel Expenses
 
In February 2020, Virginia Power filed its annual fuel factor with the Virginia Commission to recover an estimated $1.2 billion in Virginia jurisdictional projected fuel expenses for the rate year beginning July 1, 2020 and a projected over-recovery of approximately $81 million for the prior year balance as of June 30, 2020. Virginia Power requested that the new fuel factor rate be implemented on an interim basis two months early, beginning on May 1, 2020. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission approved the interim rates. Virginia Power’s proposed fuel rate represents a fuel revenue decrease of approximately $393 million when applied to projected kilowatt-hour sales for the rate year beginning May 1, 2020. This matter is pending.

North Carolina Regulation
North Carolina Base Rate Case
In March 2019, Virginia Power filed its base rate case and schedules with the North Carolina Commission. Virginia Power proposed a non-fuel, base rate increase of $27 million effective November 1, 2019 on an interim basis subject to refund, with any permanent rates ordered by the North Carolina Commission effective January 1, 2020. The base rate increase was proposed to recover the significant investments in generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure for the benefit of North Carolina customers. Virginia Power presented an earned return of 7.52% based upon a fully-adjusted test period, compared to its authorized 9.90% return, and proposed a 10.75% ROE. In September 2019, Virginia Power revised its filing to reduce the non-fuel base rate increase to $24 million. In January 2020, the North Carolina Commission approved a 9.75% ROE and disallowed certain costs associated with coal ash remediation at Chesterfield power station. In February 2020, the North Carolina Commission issued its final order relating to base rates. In April 2020, Virginia Power filed a petition for reconsideration of the North Carolina Commission’s order as it relates to certain issues. This matter is pending.

Pipeline Integrity and Safety Program
 
The North Carolina Commission has authorized PSNC to use a tracker mechanism to recover the incurred capital investment and associated costs of complying with federal standards for pipeline integrity and safety requirements that are not in current base rates. In February 2020, the North Carolina Commission approved PSNC’s request to increase the integrity management annual revenue requirement to $28 million, an increase of $7 million over its previous filing, effective March 2020.
 
South Carolina Regulation
South Carolina Base Rate Case
Pursuant to the SCANA Merger Approval Order, DESC will not file an application for a general rate case with the South Carolina Commission with a requested effective date for new rates earlier than January 2021.  In April 2020, the South Carolina Commission issued an order vacating the portion of the SCANA Merger Approval Order requiring that new retail electric rates be implemented by January 1, 2021.
 
DSM Programs
DESC has approval for a DSM rider through which it recovers expenditures related to its DSM programs. In January 2020, DESC filed an application with the South Carolina Commission seeking approval to recover $40 million of costs and net lost revenues associated with these programs, along with an incentive to invest in such programs. In April 2020, the South Carolina Commission approved the filing.

Cost of Fuel
In February 2020, DESC filed a proposal with the South Carolina Commission to decrease the total fuel cost component of retail electric rates. DESC’s proposed decrease would reduce annual base fuel component recoveries by $44 million and is projected to return to customers the existing over-collected balance while recovering DESC’s current base fuel costs over the 12-month period beginning with the first billing cycle of May 2020. In addition, DESC proposed an increase to its variable environmental and distributed energy resource components. In April 2020, the South Carolina Commission approved the filing.
 
Ohio Regulation
PIR Program
In 2008, East Ohio began PIR, aimed at replacing approximately 25% of its pipeline system. In April 2020, the Ohio Commission approved East Ohio’s application to adjust the PIR recovery for 2019 costs. The filing reflects gross plant investment for 2019 of $209 million, cumulative gross plant investment of $1.8 billion and an annual revenue requirement of $218 million.
 
FERC – Gas
Cove Point
In January 2020, pursuant to the terms of a previous settlement, Cove Point filed a general rate case for its FERC-jurisdictional services, with proposed rates to be effective March 1, 2020.

In February 2020, FERC approved suspending the changes in rates for five months following the proposed effective date, until August 1, 2020, subject to refund.
In February 2020, Cove Point submitted its annual electric power cost adjustment to FERC requesting approval to recover $28 million. FERC approved the adjustment in March 2020.

Note 16. Significant Financing Transactions
Credit Facilities and Short-term Debt
The Companies use short-term debt to fund working capital requirements and as a bridge to long-term debt financings. The levels of borrowing may vary significantly during the course of the year, depending upon the timing and amount of cash requirements not satisfied by cash from operations. In addition, Dominion Energy utilizes cash and letters of credit to fund collateral requirements. Collateral requirements are impacted by commodity prices, hedging levels, Dominion Energy’s credit ratings and the credit quality of its counterparties.
Dominion Energy
At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy’s commercial paper and letters of credit outstanding, as well as its capacity available under the credit facility, were as follows:

Noncontrolling Interest in Dominion Energy Midstream

In January 2019, Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Midstream closed on an agreement and plan of merger pursuant to which Dominion Energy acquired each outstanding common unit representing limited partner interests in Dominion Energy Midstream not already owned by Dominion Energy through the issuance of 22.5 million shares of common stock valued at $1.6 billion. Under the terms of the agreement and plan of merger, each publicly held outstanding common unit representing limited partner interests in
72

Dominion Energy Midstream was converted into the right to receive 0.2492 shares of Dominion Energy common stock. Immediately prior to the closing, each Series A Preferred Unit representing limited partner interests in Dominion Energy Midstream was converted into common units representing limited partner interests in Dominion Energy Midstream in accordance with the terms of Dominion Energy Midstream’s partnership agreement. The merger was accounted for by Dominion Energy following the guidance for a change in a parent company’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary. Because Dominion Energy controls Dominion Energy Midstream both before and after the merger, the changes in Dominion Energy’s ownership interest in Dominion Energy Midstream were accounted for as an equity transaction and no gain or loss was recognized. In connection with the merger, Dominion Energy recognized $40 million of income taxes in equity primarily attributable to establishing additional regulatory liabilities related to excess deferred income taxes and changes in state income taxes.
 
2019 Corporate Units
In June 2019, Dominion Energy issued $1.6 billion of 2019 Equity Units, initially in the form of 2019 Series A Corporate Units. The Corporate Units are listed on the NYSE under the symbol DCUE. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes and to repay short-term debt, including commercial paper.
Each 2019 Series A Corporate Unit consists of a stock purchase contract and a 1/10, or 10%, undivided beneficial ownership interest in one share of Series A Preferred Stock. Beginning in June 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into Dominion Energy common stock under a formula based upon the average closing price of Dominion Energy common stock prior to the conversion date. The Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable in cash by Dominion Energy beginning September 2022 at the liquidation preference. Settlement of any conversion is payable in cash, common stock or a combination thereof, at Dominion Energy’s election.
The stock purchase contracts obligate the holders to purchase shares of Dominion Energy common stock in June 2022. The purchase price to be paid under the stock purchase contracts is $100 per Corporate Unit and the number of shares to be purchased will be determined under a formula based upon the average closing price of Dominion Energy common stock near the settlement date. The Series A Preferred Stock was pledged upon issuance as collateral to secure the purchase of common stock under the related stock purchase contracts.
Dominion Energy pays cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and quarterly contract adjustment payments on the stock purchase contracts, at the rates described below. Dominion Energy may elect to pay such dividends and/or payments in cash, shares of Dominion Energy common stock or a combination of cash and shares of Dominion Energy common stock.  Dominion Energy may defer the contract adjustment payments for one or more consecutive periods but generally not beyond the purchase contract settlement date. If payments are deferred, Dominion Energy may not make any distributions related to its capital stock, including dividends, redemptions, repurchases or liquidation payments. Also, during the deferral period, Dominion Energy may not make any payments on or redeem, repay or repurchase any debt securities that are equal in right of payment with, or subordinated to, the contract adjustment payments or make any payment on any guarantee of a security of a subsidiary if the guarantee ranks equal or junior to the contract adjustment payments.  Unless all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been declared and paid, Dominion Energy may not make any distributions on any of its capital stock ranking equal or junior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation, as applicable, including dividends, redemptions, repurchases or liquidation payments.  In such circumstances, Dominion Energy also may not make any contract adjustment payments or other similar types of payments, subject to certain exceptions.
Dominion Energy has recorded the present value of the stock purchase contract payments as a liability offset to common stock. Stock purchase contract payments are recorded against this liability. Accretion of the stock purchase contract liability is recorded as imputed interest expense. In calculating diluted EPS, Dominion Energy applies the treasury stock method to the stock purchase contracts and the if-converted method to the Series A Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the stock purchase contracts, assuming no anti-dilution or other adjustments, the maximum number of shares of common stock Dominion Energy will issue in June 2022 is 21.8 million.

Dominion Energy may, at its option, redeem the Series B Preferred Stock in whole or in part on December 15, 2024 or on any subsequent fifth anniversary of such date at a price equal to $1,000 per share plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends. Dominion Energy may also, at its option, redeem the Series B Preferred Stock in whole but not in part at a price equal to $1,020 per share plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends at any time within a certain period of time following any change in the criteria ratings agencies use to assign equity credit to securities such as the Series B Preferred Stock that has certain adverse effects on the equity credit actually received by the Series B Preferred Stock.
Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock have no voting rights except in the limited circumstances provided for in the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock or as otherwise required by applicable law. The Series B Preferred Stock is not subject to any sinking fund or other obligation of ours to redeem, repurchase or retire the Series B Preferred Stock. The preferred stock contains no conversion rights.

At-the-Market Program
 
In June 2017, Dominion Energy filed an SEC shelf registration statement for the sale of debt and equity securities including the ability to sell common stock through an at-the-market program as discussed in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In March 2020, Dominion Energy entered into four separate sales agency agreements to effect sales under a new at-the-market program and pursuant to which it may offer from time to time up to $500 million aggregate amount of its common stock. Dominion Energy has not issued any shares under this new program.
 
Dividend Restrictions
 
At March 31, 2020, DESC’s retained earnings are below the balance established by the Federal Power Act as a reserve on earnings attributable to hydroelectric generation plants. As a result, DESC is prohibited from the payment of dividends without regulatory approval until the balance of its retained earnings increases. There have been no significant changes to dividend restrictions affecting the Companies described in Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies
As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies are involved in legal proceedings before various courts and are periodically subject to governmental examinations (including by regulatory authorities), inquiries and investigations. Certain legal proceedings and governmental examinations involve demands for unspecified amounts of damages, are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions, or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, such that it is not possible for the Companies to estimate a range of possible loss. For such matters that the Companies cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the litigation or investigative processes such that the Companies are able to estimate a range of possible loss. For legal proceedings and governmental examinations that the Companies are able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. Any accrued liability is
74

recorded on a gross basis with a receivable also recorded for any probable insurance recoveries. Estimated ranges of loss are inclusive of legal fees and net of any anticipated insurance recoveries. Any estimated range is based on currently available information and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss may not represent the Companies’ maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such legal proceedings and governmental examinations will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current proceedings not specifically reported below, management does not anticipate that the liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would have a material effect on the Companies’ financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
 
Environmental Matters
The Companies are subject to costs resulting from a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. These laws and regulations affect future planning and existing operations. They can result in increased capital, operating and other costs as a result of compliance, remediation, containment and monitoring obligations.
 
Air
CAA
The CAA, as amended, is a comprehensive program utilizing a broad range of regulatory tools to protect and preserve the nation's air quality. At a minimum, states are required to establish regulatory programs to address all requirements of the CAA. However, states may choose to develop regulatory programs that are more restrictive. Many of the Companies’ facilities are subject to the CAA’s permitting and other requirements.
MATS
In February 2019, the EPA published a proposed rule to reverse its previous finding that it is appropriate and necessary to regulate hazardous air pollutant emissions from coal- and oil-fired electric generating units. In April 2020, the EPA finalized its reconsideration and issued a final rule. The final rule is consistent with the EPA’s February 2019 proposal, and determines that it is not appropriate and necessary to regulate mercury and hazardous air pollutant emissions from coal- and oil-fired electric generating units.  The final rule also states that the MATS rule remains in place and the emissions standards for affected coal- and oil-fired electric generating units will not change. The effective date of the action will be 60 days after publication in the Federal Register.  Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are complying with the applicable requirements of the rule and do not expect any impacts to their operations.
Ozone Standards
The EPA published final non-attainment designations for the October 2015 ozone standard in June 2018. States have until August 2021 to develop plans to address the new standard. Until the states have developed implementation plans for the standard, the Companies are unable to predict whether or to what extent the new rules will ultimately require additional controls. The expenditures required to implement additional controls could have a material impact on the Companies’ results of operations and cash flows.
Oil and Gas NSPS
In August 2012, the EPA issued an NSPS impacting new and modified facilities in the natural gas production and gathering sectors and made revisions to the NSPS for natural gas processing and transmission facilities. These rules establish equipment performance specifications and emissions standards for control of VOC emissions for natural gas production wells, tanks, pneumatic controllers, and compressors in the upstream sector. In June 2016, the EPA issued another NSPS regulation, for the oil and natural gas sector, to regulate methane and VOC emissions from new and modified facilities in transmission and storage, gathering and boosting, production and processing facilities. All projects which commenced construction after September 2015 are required to comply with this regulation. In October 2018, the EPA published a proposed rule reconsidering and amending portions of the 2016 rule, including but not limited to, the fugitive emissions requirements at well sites and compressor stations. The amended portions of the 2016 rule were effective immediately upon publication. Until the proposed rule regarding reconsideration is final, Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas are implementing the 2016 regulation. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas are still evaluating whether potential impacts on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows related to this matter will be material.

ACE Rule
In July 2019, the EPA published the final rule informally referred to as the ACE Rule, as a replacement for the Clean Power Plan. ACE Rule applies to existing coal-fired power plants. The final rule includes unit-specific performance standards based on the degree of emission reduction levels achievable from unit efficiency improvements to be determined by the permitting agency. The ACE Rule requires states to develop plans by July 2022, to implement these performance standards. These state plans must be approved by the EPA by January 2024. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.
 
Carbon Regulations
In August 2016, the EPA issued a draft rule proposing to reaffirm that a source’s obligation to obtain a PSD or Title V permit for GHGs is triggered only if such permitting requirements are first triggered by non-GHG, or conventional, pollutants that are regulated by the New Source Review program, and to set a significant emissions rate at 75,000 tons per year of CO2 equivalent emissions under which a source would not be required to apply BACT for its GHG emissions. Until the EPA ultimately takes final action on this rulemaking, the Companies cannot predict the impact to their results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.
In December 2018, the EPA proposed revised Standards of Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from New, Modified, and Reconstructed Stationary Sources. The proposed rule would amend the previous determination that the best system of emission reduction for newly constructed coal-fired steam generating units is no longer partial carbon capture and storage. Instead, the proposed revised best system of emission reduction for this source category is the most efficient demonstrated steam cycle (e.g., supercritical steam conditions for large units and subcritical steam conditions for small units) in combination with the best operating practices.
State Regulations
In May 2019, VDEQ issued a final rule establishing a state carbon regulation program with a 28.0 million ton initial state-wide carbon cap in 2020. The cap is reduced by approximately three percent per year through 2030, resulting in an ultimate cap of 19.6 million tons. The final rule includes a provision for VDEQ to delay implementation of the rule and possible adjustments to the baseline cap pending authorization from the General Assembly and Governor of Virginia. In April 2020, Virginia legislation was enacted authorizing VDEQ to implement the final rule. The Virginia legislation also authorizes Virginia to participate in RGGI or another market-based carbon trading program. The existing regulatory framework in Virginia provides rate recovery mechanisms that are expected to substantially mitigate any such impact.
This legislation is considered related legislation to the VCEA as discussed in Note 13. The VCEA institutes a mandatory renewable portfolio standard, enhances renewable generation and energy storage development, requires the retirement of certain generation facilities, establishes energy efficiency targets, expands net metering and directs Virginia’s participation in a market-based carbon trading program through 2050.
Water
The CWA, as amended, is a comprehensive program requiring a broad range of regulatory tools including a permit program to authorize and regulate discharges to surface waters with strong enforcement mechanisms. The Companies must comply with applicable aspects of the CWA programs at their operating facilities.
Regulation 316(b)
In October 2014, the final regulations under Section 316(b) of the CWA that govern existing facilities and new units at existing facilities that employ a cooling water intake structure and that have flow levels exceeding a minimum threshold became effective. The rule establishes a national standard for impingement based on seven compliance options, but forgoes the creation of a single technology standard for entrainment. Instead, the EPA has delegated entrainment technology decisions to state regulators. State regulators are to make case-by-case entrainment technology determinations after an examination of five mandatory facility-specific factors, including a social cost-benefit test, and six optional facility-specific factors. The rule governs all electric generating stations with water withdrawals above two MGD, with a heightened entrainment analysis for those facilities over 125 MGD. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power currently have 13 and seven facilities, respectively, that may be subject to the final regulations. Dominion Energy is also working with the EPA and state regulatory agencies to assess the applicability of Section 316(b) to six hydroelectric facilities, including one Virginia Power facility. Dominion Energy anticipates that it may have to install impingement control technologies at certain of these stations that have once-through cooling systems. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are currently evaluating the need or potential for entrainment controls under the final rule as these decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis after a thorough review of detailed biological, technology, cost and benefit studies. DESC is conducting studies and implementing plans as required by the rule to determine appropriate intake structure modifications at certain facilities to ensure compliance with this rule. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.

Effluent Limitations Guidelines
In September 2015, the EPA released a final rule to revise the Effluent Limitations Guidelines for the Steam Electric Power Generating Category. The final rule establishes updated standards for wastewater discharges that apply primarily at coal and oil steam generating stations. Affected facilities are required to convert from wet to dry or closed cycle coal ash management, improve existing wastewater treatment systems and/or install new wastewater treatment technologies in order to meet the new discharge limits. In April 2017, the EPA granted two separate petitions for reconsideration of the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule and stayed future compliance dates in the rule. Also in April 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted the EPA’s request for a stay of the pending consolidated litigation challenging the rule while the EPA addresses the petitions for reconsideration. In September 2017, the EPA signed a rule to postpone the earliest compliance dates for certain waste streams regulations in the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule from November 2018 to November 2020; however, the latest date for compliance for these regulations remains December 2023. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.
 
Waste Management and Remediation
The operations of the Companies are subject to a variety of state and federal laws and regulations governing the management and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and release of hazardous substances associated with current and/or historical operations. The CERCLA, as amended, and similar state laws, may impose joint, several and strict liability for cleanup on potentially responsible parties who owned, operated or arranged for disposal at facilities affected by a release of hazardous substances. In addition, many states have created programs to incentivize voluntary remediation of sites where historical releases of hazardous substances are identified and property owners or responsible parties decide to initiate cleanups.
 
From time to time, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power or Dominion Energy Gas may be identified as a potentially responsible party in connection with the alleged release of hazardous substances or wastes at a site. Under applicable federal and state laws, the Companies could be responsible for costs associated with the investigation or remediation of impacted sites, or subject to contribution claims by other responsible parties for their costs incurred at such sites. The Companies also may identify, evaluate and remediate other potentially impacted sites under voluntary state programs. Remediation costs may be subject to reimbursement under the Companies’ insurance policies, rate recovery mechanisms, or both. Except as described below, the Companies do not believe these matters will have a material effect on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.
 
Dominion Energy has determined that it is associated with former manufactured gas plant sites, including certain sites associated with Virginia Power. At 11 sites associated with Dominion Energy, including certain sites acquired in the SCANA Combination, remediation work has been substantially completed under federal or state oversight. Where required, the sites are following state-approved groundwater monitoring programs. Dominion Energy has proposed or expects to propose remediation plans associated with three sites, including one at Virginia Power, and expects to conduct remediation activities primarily in 2020. At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power have $34 million and $16 million, respectively, of reserves recorded. In addition, for one site associated with Dominion Energy, an updated work plan submitted to SCDHEC in September 2018, would increase costs by approximately $8 million if approved by federal and state agencies. Dominion Energy is associated with 13 additional sites, including two associated with Virginia Power, which are not under investigation by any state or federal environmental agency nor the subject of any current or proposed plans to perform remediation activities. Due to the uncertainty surrounding such sites, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts.
Other Legal Matters
The Companies are defendants in a number of lawsuits and claims involving unrelated incidents of property damage and personal injury. Due to the uncertainty surrounding these matters, the Companies are unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts; however, they could have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.
 
SCANA Legal Proceedings
The following describes certain legal proceedings involving Dominion Energy, SCANA or DESC relating to events occurring before closing of the SCANA Combination. No reference to, or disclosure of, any proceeding, item or matter described below shall be construed as an admission or indication that such proceeding, item or matter is material. For certain of these matters, and unless otherwise noted therein, Dominion Energy is unable to estimate a reasonable range of possible loss and the related financial statement impacts, but for any such matter there could be a material impact to its results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.  For the matters for which Dominion Energy is able to reasonably estimate a probable loss, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 include reserves of $560 million and $696 million, respectively, and insurance receivables of $6 million and $111 million, respectively, included within other receivables. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include charges of $25 million ($25 million after-tax) included within other income (expense). During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include charges of $178 million ($133 million after-tax) included within impairment of assets and other charges.

Ratepayer Class Actions
In May 2018, a consolidated complaint against DESC, SCANA and the State of South Carolina was filed in the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County, South Carolina (the DESC Ratepayer Case). In September 2018, the court certified this case as a class action. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that DESC was negligent and unjustly enriched, breached alleged fiduciary and contractual duties and committed fraud and misrepresentation in failing to properly manage the NND Project, and that DESC committed unfair trade practices and violated state anti-trust laws. The plaintiffs sought a declaratory judgment that DESC may not charge its customers for any past or continuing costs of the NND Project, sought to have SCANA and DESC’s assets frozen and all monies recovered from Toshiba Corporation and other sources be placed in a constructive trust for the benefit of ratepayers and sought specific performance of the alleged implied contract to construct the NND Project.
In December 2018, the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County entered an order granting preliminary approval of a class action settlement and a stay of pre-trial proceedings in the DESC Ratepayer Case. The settlement agreement, contingent upon the closing of the SCANA Combination, provided that SCANA and DESC would establish an escrow account and proceeds from the escrow account would be distributed to the class members, after payment of certain taxes, attorneys' fees and other expenses and administrative costs. The escrow account would include (1) up to $2.0 billion, net of a credit of up to $2.0 billion in future electric bill relief, which would inure to the benefit of the escrow account in favor of class members over a period of time established by the South Carolina Commission in its order related to matters before the South Carolina Commission related to the NND Project, (2) a cash payment of $115 million and (3) the transfer of certain DESC-owned real estate or sales proceeds from the sale of such properties, which counsel for the DESC Ratepayer Class estimate to have an aggregate value between $60 million and $85 million. At the closing of the SCANA Combination, SCANA and DESC funded the cash payment portion of the escrow account. The court held a fairness hearing on the settlement in May 2019. In June 2019, the court entered an order granting final approval of the settlement, which order became effective July 2019. In July 2019, DESC transferred $117 million representing the cash payment, plus accrued interest, to the plaintiffs. In addition, property, plant and equipment with a net recorded value of $54 million is in the process of being transferred to the plaintiffs in coordination with the court-appointed real estate trustee to satisfy the settlement agreement.
In September 2017, a purported class action was filed by Santee Cooper ratepayers against Santee Cooper, DESC, Palmetto Electric Cooperative, Inc. and Central Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. in the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County, South Carolina (the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case). The allegations are substantially similar to those in the DESC Ratepayer Case. The plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that the defendants may not charge the purported class for reimbursement for past or future costs of the NND Project. In March 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint including as additional named defendants, including certain then current and former directors of Santee Cooper and SCANA. In June 2018, Santee Cooper filed a Notice of Petition for Original Jurisdiction with the Supreme Court of South Carolina. In December 2018, Santee Cooper filed its answer to the plaintiffs' fourth amended complaint and filed cross claims against DESC, which was denied. In October 2019, Santee Cooper voluntarily consented to stay its cross claims against DESC pending the outcome of the trial of the underlying case. In November 2019, DESC removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. In December 2019, the plaintiffs and Santee Cooper filed a motion to remand the case to state court. In January 2020, the case was remanded to state court. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement relating to this matter as well as the Luquire Case and the Glibowski Case described below. The settlement agreement provides that Dominion Energy and Santee Cooper will establish a fund for the benefit of class members in the amount of $520 million, of which Dominion Energy’s portion is $320 million of shares of Dominion Energy common stock. Also in March 2020, the court granted preliminary approval for the settlement agreement. This case is pending.
In July 2019, a similar purported class action was filed by certain Santee Cooper ratepayers against DESC, SCANA, Dominion Energy and former directors and officers of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Orangeburg, South Carolina (the Luquire Case). In August 2019, DESC, SCANA and Dominion Energy were voluntarily dismissed from the case. The claims are similar to the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement as described above relating to this matter as well as the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case and the Glibowski Case. This case is pending.
RICO Class Action
In January 2018, a purported class action was filed, and subsequently amended, against SCANA, DESC and certain former executive officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina (the Glibowski Case). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that SCANA, DESC and the individual defendants participated in an unlawful racketeering enterprise in violation of RICO and conspired to violate RICO by fraudulently inflating utility bills to generate unlawful proceeds. The DESC Ratepayer Class Action settlement described previously contemplates dismissal of claims by DESC ratepayers in this case against DESC, SCANA and their officers. In August 2019, the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement as described above relating to this matter as well as the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case and the Luquire Case. This case is pending.

SCANA Shareholder Litigation
In September 2017, a purported class action was filed against SCANA and certain former executive officers and directors in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. Subsequent additional purported class actions were separately filed against all or nearly all of these defendants (collectively the SCANA Securities Class Action). In January 2018, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina consolidated these suits, and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint in March 2018. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants violated §10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that the individually named defendants are liable under §20(a) of the same act. In June 2018, the defendants filed motions to dismiss. In March 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motions to dismiss. In December 2019, the parties executed a settlement agreement pursuant to which SCANA will pay $192.5 million, up to $32.5 million of which can be satisfied through the issuance of shares of Dominion Energy common stock, subject to approval by the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. In February 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted preliminary approval of the settlement agreement, pending a fairness hearing. In March 2020, SCANA funded an escrow account with $160 million in cash and the balance of the settlement will be paid upon final approval of the settlement by the court.
 
In September 2017, a shareholder derivative action was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina. In September 2018, this action was consolidated with another action in the Business Court Pilot Program in Richland County. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, and that the defendants were unjustly enriched by bonuses they were paid in connection with the project. In January 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated action. In February 2019, one action was voluntarily dismissed. In March 2020, the court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss. In April 2020, the defendants filed a notice of appeal with the South Carolina Court of Appeals and a petition with the Supreme Court of South Carolina seeking appellate review of the denial of the motion to dismiss. This case is pending.
 
In January 2018, a purported class action was filed against SCANA, Dominion Energy and certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Lexington County, South Carolina (the City of Warren Lawsuit). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that defendants violated their fiduciary duties to shareholders by executing a merger agreement that would unfairly deprive plaintiffs of the true value of their SCANA stock, and that Dominion Energy aided and abetted these actions. Among other remedies, the plaintiff seeks to enjoin and/or rescind the merger. In February 2018, Dominion Energy removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina, and filed a Motion to Dismiss in March 2018. In June 2018, the case was remanded back to the State Court of Common Pleas in Lexington County. Dominion Energy appealed the decision to remand to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where the appeal was consolidated with a similar appeal in the Metzler Lawsuit discussed below. In June 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit reversed the order remanding the case to state court.
 
In February 2018, a purported class action was filed against Dominion Energy and certain former directors of SCANA and DESC in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina (the Metzler Lawsuit). The allegations made and the relief sought by the plaintiffs are substantially similar to that described for the City of Warren Lawsuit. In February 2018, Dominion Energy removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina, and filed a Motion to Dismiss in March 2018. In August 2018, the case was remanded back to the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County. Dominion Energy appealed the decision to remand to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where the appeal was consolidated with the City of Warren Lawsuit. In June 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit reversed the order remanding the case to state court.
 
In September 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted the plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit. In October 2019, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint against certain former directors and executive officers of SCANA and DESC, which stated substantially similar allegations to those in the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit as well as an inseparable fraud claim. In November 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. In April 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina denied the motion to dismiss. This case is pending.
 
In May 2019, a case was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, were unjustly enriched by the bonuses they were paid in connection with the project and breached their fiduciary duties to secure and obtain the best price for the sale of SCANA. Also in May 2019, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court of South Carolina by the non-South Carolina defendants. In June 2019, the plaintiffs filed a motion to remand the case to state court. In January 2020, the case was remanded to state court. In February 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. This case is pending.

Employment Class Actions and Indemnification
In August 2017, a case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina on behalf of persons who were formerly employed at the NND Project. In July 2018, the court certified this case as a class action.  In February 2019, certain of these plaintiffs filed an additional case, which case has been dismissed and the plaintiffs have joined the case filed August 2017.  The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that SCANA, DESC, Fluor Corporation and Fluor Enterprises, Inc. violated the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act in connection with the decision to stop construction at the NND Project. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to provide adequate advance written notice of their terminations of employment and are seeking damages, which could be as much as $100 million for 100% of the NND Project.
In September 2018, a case was filed in the State Court of Common Pleas in Fairfield County, South Carolina by Fluor Enterprises, Inc. and Fluor Daniel Maintenance Services, Inc. against DESC and Santee Cooper. The plaintiffs make claims for indemnification, breach of contract and promissory estoppel arising from, among other things, the defendants' alleged failure and refusal to defend and indemnify the Fluor defendants in the aforementioned case. These cases are pending.
FILOT Litigation and Related Matters
In November 2017, Fairfield County filed a complaint and a motion for temporary injunction against DESC in the State Court of Common Pleas in Fairfield County, South Carolina, making allegations of breach of contract, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied duty of good faith and fair dealing and unfair trade practices related to DESC’s termination of the FILOT agreement between DESC and Fairfield County related to the NND Project. The plaintiff sought a temporary and permanent injunction to prevent DESC from terminating the FILOT agreement. The plaintiff withdrew the motion for temporary injunction in December 2017. This case is pending.
Governmental Proceedings and Investigations
In June 2018, DESC received a notice of proposed assessment of approximately $410 million, excluding interest, from the SCDOR following its audit of DESC’s sales and use tax returns for the periods September 1, 2008 through December 31, 2017. The proposed assessment, which includes 100% of the NND Project, is based on the SCDOR’s position that DESC’s sales and use tax exemption for the NND Project does not apply because the facility will not become operational. DESC has protested the proposed assessment, which remains pending.
In September and October 2017, SCANA was served with subpoenas issued by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of South Carolina and the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement seeking documents related to the NND Project. In February 2020, the SEC filed a complaint against SCANA, two of its former executive officers and DESC in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina alleging that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements about the NND Project. In April 2020, SCANA and DESC reached an agreement in principle with the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement to settle, without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint. The Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement has not yet presented the proposed settlement to the SEC. The agreement in principle would, among other things, require SCANA to pay a civil monetary penalty totaling $25 million, and SCANA and DESC to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest totaling $112.5 million, which disgorgement and prejudgment interest amount will be deemed satisfied by the settlements in the SCANA Securities Class Action and the DESC Ratepayer Case. The proposed settlement is contingent on the review and approval of final documentation by SCANA, DESC and the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement and is subject to approval by the SEC and the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. This matter is pending.
In addition, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division is conducting a criminal investigation into the handling of the NND Project by SCANA and DESC.  Dominion Energy is cooperating fully with the investigations by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, including responding to additional subpoenas and document requests. Dominion Energy has also entered into a cooperation agreement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office.  The cooperation agreement provides that in consideration of its full cooperation with these investigations to the satisfaction of both agencies, neither such agency will criminally prosecute or bring any civil action against Dominion Energy or any of its current, previous, or future direct or indirect subsidiaries related to the NND Project. These matters are pending.
Other Litigation
In December 2018, arbitration proceedings commenced between DESC and Cameco Corporation related to a supply agreement signed in May 2008. This agreement provides the terms and conditions under which DESC agreed to purchase uranium hexafluoride from Cameco Corporation over a period from 2010 to 2020. Cameco Corporation alleges that DESC violated this agreement by failing to purchase the stated quantities of uranium hexafluoride for the 2017 and 2018 delivery years. DESC denies that it is in breach of the agreement and believes that it has reduced its purchase quantity within the terms of the agreement. This matter is pending.

Abandoned NND Project
DESC, for itself and as agent for Santee Cooper, entered into an engineering, construction and procurement contract with Westinghouse and WECTEC in 2008 for the design and construction of the NND Project, of which DESC’s ownership share is 55%. Various difficulties were encountered in connection with the project. The ability of Westinghouse and WECTEC to adhere to established budgets and construction schedules was affected by many variables, including unanticipated difficulties encountered in connection with project engineering and the construction of project components, constrained financial resources of the contractors, regulatory, legal, training and construction processes associated with securing approvals, permits and licenses and necessary amendments to them within projected time frames, the availability of labor and materials at estimated costs and the efficiency of project labor. There were also contractor and supplier performance issues, difficulties in timely meeting critical regulatory requirements, contract disputes, and changes in key contractors or subcontractors. These matters preceded the filing for bankruptcy protection by Westinghouse and WECTEC in March 2017, and were the subject of comprehensive analyses performed by SCANA and Santee Cooper.
Based on the results of SCANA’s analysis, and in light of Santee Cooper's decision to suspend construction on the NND Project, in July 2017, SCANA determined to stop the construction of the units and to pursue recovery of costs incurred in connection with the construction under the abandonment provisions of the Base Load Review Act or through other means. This decision by SCANA became the focus of numerous legislative, regulatory and legal proceedings. Some of these proceedings remain unresolved and are described above.
 
In September 2017, DESC, for itself and as agent for Santee Cooper, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York Proofs of Claim for unliquidated damages against each of Westinghouse and WECTEC. These Proofs of Claim were based upon the anticipatory repudiation and material breach by Westinghouse and WECTEC of the contract, and assert against Westinghouse and WECTEC any and all claims that are based thereon or that may be related thereto.
Westinghouse’s reorganization plan was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and became effective in August 2018. In connection with the effectiveness of the reorganization plan, the contract associated with the NND Project was deemed rejected. DESC is contesting approximately $285 million of filed liens in Fairfield County, South Carolina. Most of these asserted liens are claims that relate to work performed by Westinghouse subcontractors before the Westinghouse bankruptcy, although some of them are claims arising from work performed after the Westinghouse bankruptcy.
 
Westinghouse has indicated that some unsecured creditors have sought or may seek amounts beyond what Westinghouse allocated when it submitted its reorganization plan to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. If any unsecured creditor is successful in its attempt to include its claim as part of the class of general unsecured creditors beyond the amounts in the bankruptcy reorganization plan allocated by Westinghouse, it is possible that the reorganization plan will not provide for payment in full or nearly in full to its pre-petition trade creditors. The shortfall could be significant.
 
DESC and Santee Cooper were responsible for amounts owed to Westinghouse for valid work performed by Westinghouse subcontractors on the NND Project after the Westinghouse bankruptcy filing until termination of the interim assessment agreement. In December 2019, DESC and Santee Cooper entered into a confidential settlement agreement with W Wind Down Co LLC resolving claims relating to the interim assessment agreement.
 
Further, some Westinghouse subcontractors who have made claims against Westinghouse in the bankruptcy proceeding also filed against DESC and Santee Cooper in South Carolina state court for damages. Many of these claimants have also asserted construction liens against the NND Project site. DESC also intends to oppose these claims and liens. With respect to claims of Westinghouse subcontractors, DESC believes there were sufficient amounts previously funded during the interim assessment agreement period to pay such validly asserted claims. With respect to the Westinghouse subcontractor claims which relate to other periods, DESC understands that such claims will be paid pursuant to Westinghouse’s confirmed bankruptcy reorganization plan. DESC further understands that the amounts paid under the plan may satisfy such claims in full. Therefore, DESC believes that the Westinghouse subcontractors may be paid substantially (and potentially in full) by Westinghouse. While Dominion Energy cannot be assured that it will not have any exposure on account of unpaid Westinghouse subcontractor claims, which DESC is presently disputing, Dominion Energy believes it is unlikely that it will be required to make payments on account of such claims.
 
Nuclear Matters
In March 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused significant damage at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station in northeast Japan. These events resulted in significant nuclear safety reviews by the NRC and industry groups such as the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations. Like other U.S. nuclear operators, Dominion Energy has gathered supporting data and participated in industry initiatives focused on the ability to respond to and mitigate the consequences of, design-basis and beyond-design-basis events at its stations.
81

 
In July 2011, an NRC task force provided initial recommendations based on its review of the Fukushima Daiichi accident and in October 2011 the NRC staff prioritized these recommendations into Tiers 1, 2 and 3. Tier 1 recommendations consisted of actions which the NRC staff determined should be started without unnecessary delay. Tier 2 and 3 items consisted of items which could not be initiated in the near term because of resource restraints, the need for further technical assessment, or were dependent on activities related to the higher priority Tier 1 issues. In December 2011, the NRC Commissioners approved the agency staff’s prioritization and recommendations, and that same month an appropriations act directed the NRC to require reevaluation of external hazards (not limited to seismic and flooding hazards) as soon as possible.
 
Based on the prioritized recommendations, in March 2012, the NRC issued orders and information requests requiring specific reviews and actions to all operating reactor licensees, construction permit holders and combined license holders based on the lessons learned from the Fukushima Daiichi event. The orders applicable to Dominion Energy requiring implementation of safety enhancements related to mitigation strategies for responding to extreme natural events resulting in the loss of power at plants, and enhancing spent fuel pool instrumentation have been implemented. The information requests issued by the NRC requested each reactor licensee to reevaluate the seismic and external flooding hazards at their facility using present-day methods and information, conduct walkdowns of their facility to ensure protection against these hazards in their current design basis, and to reevaluate their emergency communications systems and staffing levels. The walkdowns of each unit have been completed, audited by the NRC and found to be adequate. Reevaluation of the emergency communications systems and staffing levels was completed as part of the effort to comply with the orders. Reevaluation of the seismic hazards is complete and final with NRC acceptance received for all Dominion Energy facilities. Reevaluation of the external flooding hazards is complete for all Dominion Energy facilities. However, NRC acceptance of the external flooding hazards reevaluations for Millstone and Surry have not yet been received. NRC is expected to accept these external flooding hazards analyses in 2020. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not currently expect that compliance with the NRC’s information requests will materially impact their financial position, results of operations or cash flows during the implementation period. The NRC staff has resolved the Tier 2 and Tier 3 recommendations and no additional future actions on the part of Dominion Energy are anticipated with respect to these recommendations. Therefore, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not expect material financial impacts related to compliance with Tier 2 and Tier 3 recommendations.
 
Nuclear Operations
Spent Nuclear Fuel
As discussed in Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power entered into contracts with the DOE for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel under provisions of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982.
In June 2018, a lawsuit for Kewaunee was filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims for recovery of spent nuclear fuel storage costs incurred after 2013. In March 2019, Dominion Energy amended its filing for recovery of spent nuclear fuel storage to include costs incurred for the year ended December 31, 2018. This matter is pending.  
 
Guarantees, Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit
Dominion Energy entered into a guarantee agreement to support a portion of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s obligation under a $3.4 billion revolving credit facility with a stated maturity date of October 2021. In March 2020, Dominion Energy acquired Southern’s 5% membership interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline. As a result, Dominion Energy’s maximum potential loss exposure under the terms of the guarantee has increased from 48% to 53% of the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, an equal percentage to Dominion Energy’s ownership in Atlantic Coast Pipeline. As of March 31, 2020, Atlantic Coast Pipeline had borrowed $1.8 billion against the revolving credit facility and borrowed an additional $32 million in the second quarter of 2020. Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include a liability of $60 million and $14 million associated with this guarantee agreement at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The liability as of March 31, 2020 includes a $48 million adjustment reflected within equity as a cumulative-effect of changes in accounting principles for current expected credit loss associated with this guarantee agreement.
 
In addition, at March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy had issued an additional $27 million of guarantees, primarily to support other equity method investees. No amounts related to the other guarantees have been recorded.
 
82

Dominion Energy also enters into guarantee arrangements on behalf of its consolidated subsidiaries, primarily to facilitate their commercial transactions with third parties. If any of these subsidiaries fail to perform or pay under the contracts and the counterparties seek performance or payment, Dominion Energy would be obligated to satisfy such obligation. To the extent that a liability subject to a guarantee has been incurred by one of Dominion Energy’s consolidated subsidiaries, that liability is included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Dominion Energy is not required to recognize liabilities for guarantees issued on behalf of its subsidiaries unless it becomes probable that it will have to perform under the guarantees. Terms of the guarantees typically end once obligations have been paid. Dominion Energy currently believes it is unlikely that it would be required to perform or otherwise incur any losses associated with guarantees of its subsidiaries’ obligations.
 
At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy had issued the following subsidiary guarantees:
 
 	 	Maximum
Exposure	 	
(millions)	 	 	 	 	
Commodity transactions(1)	 	$	2,226	 	
Nuclear obligations(2)	 	 	204	 	
Cove Point(3)	 	 	1,900	 	
Solar(4)	 	 	434	 	
Other(5)	 	 	448	 	
Total(6)	 	$	5,212	 	
 
(1)	Guarantees related to commodity commitments of certain subsidiaries. These guarantees were provided to counterparties in order to facilitate physical and financial transaction related commodities and services.	
(2)	Guarantees primarily related to certain DGI subsidiaries regarding all aspects of running a nuclear facility.	
(3)	Guarantees related to Cove Point, in support of terminal services, transportation and construction. Cove Point has two guarantees that have no maximum limit and, therefore, are not included in this amount.	
(4)	Includes guarantees to facilitate the development of solar projects. Also includes guarantees entered into by DGI on behalf of certain subsidiaries to facilitate the acquisition and development of solar projects.	
(5)	Guarantees related to other miscellaneous contractual obligations such as leases, environmental obligations, construction projects and insurance programs. Due to the uncertainty of workers’ compensation claims, the parental guarantee has no stated limit.  	
(6)	Excludes Dominion Energy's guarantees for the new corporate office properties discussed in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.	
 
Additionally, at March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy had purchased $164 million of surety bonds, including $79 million at Virginia Power and $27 million at Dominion Energy Gas, and authorized the issuance of letters of credit by financial institutions of $86 million to facilitate commercial transactions by its subsidiaries with third parties. Under the terms of surety bonds, the Companies are obligated to indemnify the respective surety bond company for any amounts paid.
Note 18. Credit Risk
The Companies’ accounting policies for credit risk are discussed in Note 24 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy’s gross credit exposure related to energy marketing and price risk management activities totaled $172 million. Of this amount, investment grade counterparties, including those internally rated, represented 95%. No single counterparty, whether investment grade or non-investment grade, exceeded $55 million of exposure. At March 31, 2020, Virginia Power’s exposure related to wholesale customers totaled $65 million. Of this amount, investment grade counterparties, including those internally rated, represented 100%. No single counterparty, whether investment grade or non-investment grade, exceeded $55 million of exposure. At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy Gas’ exposure primarily related to wholesale customers totaled $45 million. Of this amount, investment grade counterparties, including those internally rated, represented 92%. No single counterparty, whether investment grade or non-investment grade, exceeded $12 million of exposure.  
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Export Customers comprised approximately 33% and 32%, respectively, of Dominion Energy Gas’ total operating revenue, with Dominion Energy Gas’ largest customer representing approximately 17% of such amount during both periods.
83

Credit-Related Contingent Provisions
The majority of Dominion Energy’s derivative instruments contain credit-related contingent provisions. These provisions require Dominion Energy to provide collateral upon the occurrence of specific events, primarily a credit rating downgrade. If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy would have been required to post $14 million and $10 million, respectively, of additional collateral to its counterparties. The collateral that would be required to be posted includes the impacts of any offsetting asset positions and any amounts already posted for derivatives, non-derivative contracts and derivatives elected under the normal purchases and normal sales exception, per contractual terms. Dominion Energy had posted $4 million of collateral at March 31, 2020 related to derivatives with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash and had posted no collateral at December 31, 2019. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash was $18 million and $10 million at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which does not include the impact of any offsetting asset positions.
 
If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Virginia Power would have been required to post an additional $2 million and $8 million, respectively, of collateral to its counterparties.
Credit-related contingent provisions for Dominion Energy Gas were not material as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. See Note 9 for further information about derivative instruments.
Note 19. Related-Party Transactions
Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas engage in related-party transactions primarily with other Dominion Energy subsidiaries (affiliates). Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ receivable and payable balances with affiliates are settled based on contractual terms or on a monthly basis, depending on the nature of the underlying transactions. Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas are included in Dominion Energy's consolidated federal income tax return and, where applicable, combined income tax returns for Dominion Energy are filed in various states. Dominion Energy’s transactions with equity method investments are described in Note 10. A discussion of significant related-party transactions follows.

Overview
First Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net loss attributable to Dominion Energy decreased 60%, primarily due to the absence of charges for refunds of amounts previously collected from retail electric customers of DESC for the NND Project and for certain regulatory assets and property, plant and equipment acquired in the SCANA Combination for which Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery, a decrease in charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination and the absence of charges for the planned early retirement of certain Virginia Power automated meter reading infrastructure. These decreases were partially offset by a decrease in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds and an increase in charges associated with the planned early retirements of certain electric generation facilities in Virginia.

An analysis of Dominion Energy’s results of operations follows:
First Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue increased 48%, primarily reflecting:
•	The absence of a $1.0 billion charge for refunds of amounts previously collected from retail electric customers of DESC for the NND Project;	
•	A $128 million increase from Virginia Power rate adjustment clauses;	
•	A $32 million decrease in Virginia Power electric capacity expense related to the annual PJM capacity performance market effective June 2019 ($30 million) and a contract termination with a non-utility generator ($13 million) partially offset by the expiration of various contracts ($11 million); and	
•	A $25 million net unrealized gain on freestanding commodity derivatives.	
These increases were partially offset by:
•	A $46 million decrease from the contribution of SEMI to Wrangler;	
•	A $41 million decrease due to unfavorable pricing at Millstone, including the effects of the Millstone 2019 power purchase agreements; and	
•	A $23 million net decrease in sales to electric retail customers from a net decrease in heating degree days.	
 
Other operations and maintenance increased 4%, primarily reflecting:
•	The absence of a benefit from the revision of future ash pond and landfill closure costs as a result of Virginia legislation enacted in March 2019 ($113 million); and	
•	A $39 million increase in certain Virginia Power expenditures, which are primarily recovered through state and FERC rates and do not impact net income; partially offset by	
•	A decrease in merger and integration-related costs associated with the SCANA Combination ($96 million); and	
•	An $18 million decrease in salaries, wages and benefits.	
 
95

Impairment of assets and other charges decreased 8%, primarily due to the absence of charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination ($178 million), the absence of a charge related to Virginia Power’s planned early retirement of certain automated meter reading infrastructure ($160 million) and a decrease in charges for property, plant and equipment acquired in the SCANA Combination for which Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery ($103 million), partially offset by an increase in charges associated with the planned early retirements of certain electric generation facilities in Virginia ($382 million).
 
Other income (expense) decreased $787 million, primarily reflecting net investment losses in 2020 compared to net investment gains in 2019 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds ($792 million) and charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination ($25 million).
 
Interest and related charges increased 4%, primarily related to increases for unrealized losses associated with freestanding derivatives ($58 million) and charges associated with the early redemption of certain securities in the first quarter of 2020 ($25 million), partially offset by lower interest expense from early redemptions of certain securities in 2019 ($57 million).
Income tax expense (benefit) decreased $133 million, primarily due to the absence of a charge for certain income tax-related regulatory assets acquired in the SCANA Combination for which Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery ($198 million), partially offset by a lower pre-tax loss ($60 million).
Noncontrolling interests increased $28 million, primarily due to the sale of a 25% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in Cove Point to Brookfield in December 2019.
Segment Results of Operations
Segment results include the impact of intersegment revenues and expenses, which may result in intersegment profit and loss. In December 2019, Dominion Energy realigned its segments which resulted in the formation of five primary operating segments.

An analysis of Virginia Power’s results of operations follows:
First Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue increased 8%, primarily reflecting:
•	A $128 million increase from rate adjustment clauses; and	
•	A $32 million decrease in electric capacity expense related to the annual PJM capacity performance market effective June 2019; ($30 million) and a contract termination with a non-utility generator ($13 million) partially offset by the expiration of various contracts ($11 million); partially offset by	
•	A $35 million decrease in sales to retail customers, primarily due to a decrease in heating degree days.	
 
100

Other operations and maintenance increased 50%, primarily reflecting the absence of a benefit from the revision of future ash pond and landfill closure costs as a result of Virginia legislation enacted in March 2019 ($113 million) and a $39 million increase in certain expenses, which are primarily recovered through state and FERC rates and do not impact net income.
 
Depreciation and amortization increased 2%, primarily due to various projects being placed into service ($14 million), partially offset by an $8 million decrease reflecting the expected approval of the nuclear plant life extensions from the NRC.
 
Impairment of assets and other charges increased 40%, primarily due to an increase in charges associated with the planned early retirements of certain electric generation facilities ($382 million), partially offset by the absence of a charge related to the planned early retirement of certain automated meter reading infrastructure ($160 million).
 
Other income (expense) decreased $89 million, primarily reflecting net investment losses in 2020 compared to net investment gains in 2019 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds.
 
Income tax expense (benefit) decreased $35 million, primarily due to lower pre-tax income.

101

An analysis of Dominion Energy Gas’ results of operations follows:
First Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue decreased 1%, primarily reflecting:
•	An $11 million decrease in services performed for Atlantic Coast Pipeline; partially offset by	
•	A $3 million increase due to DETI contract changes.	
 
Other operations and maintenance decreased 6% primarily due to a decrease in services performed for Atlantic Coast Pipeline. These expenses are billed to Atlantic Coast Pipeline and do not significantly impact net income.
Other income increased 17%, primarily due to a $3 million increase in non-service components of pension and other postretirement employee benefit credits and a $2 million net increase in interest income from affiliated promissory note receivables.
Interest and related charges decreased 33%, primarily due to the absence of interest expense from Cove Point’s term loan borrowings ($36 million), partially offset by interest expense on Dominion Energy Gas’ November 2019 senior note issuance ($7 million).
Income tax expense increased 21%, primarily due to higher pre-tax income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Dominion Energy depends on both internal and external sources of liquidity to provide working capital and as a bridge to long-term debt financings. Short-term cash requirements not met by cash provided by operations are generally satisfied with proceeds from short-term borrowings. Long-term cash needs are met through issuances of debt and/or equity securities.
At March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy had $3.8 billion of unused capacity under its joint revolving credit facility. In addition, Dominion Energy had $900 million available under a 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement entered into March 2020.  
As part of its strategic response to COVID-19, Dominion Energy undertook certain measures in March and April 2020 to buttress its liquidity position. This includes entering the $900 million 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement, which has the potential for an additional $300 million of capacity upon certain events, and under which Dominion Energy has borrowed $225 million. In addition, Dominion Energy borrowed $1.1 billion under two 364-Day Term Loan Credit Agreements and issued $2.3 billion of senior notes. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
A summary of Dominion Energy’s cash flows is presented below:
 
 	 	2020	 	 	2019	 	
(millions)

Cash, restricted cash and equivalents at March 31	 	$	1,267	 	 	$	627	 	
 
Operating Cash Flows
Net cash provided by Dominion Energy’s operating activities increased $462 million, primarily due to higher deferred fuel cost recoveries, lower payments for property taxes and net changes in working capital items.
Dominion Energy believes that its operations provide a stable source of cash flow to contribute to planned levels of capital expenditures and maintain or grow the dividend on common shares.
102

Dominion Energy’s operations are subject to risks and uncertainties that may negatively impact the timing or amounts of operating cash flows, which are discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors in this report.
Credit Risk
Dominion Energy’s exposure to potential concentrations of credit risk results primarily from its energy marketing and price risk management activities. Presented below is a summary of Dominion Energy’s credit exposure as of March 31, 2020 for these activities. Gross credit exposure for each counterparty is calculated prior to the application of collateral and represents outstanding receivables plus any unrealized on- or off-balance sheet exposure, taking into account contractual netting rights.

(1)	Designations as investment grade are based upon minimum credit ratings assigned by Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s. The five largest counterparty exposures, combined, for this category represented approximately 34% of the total net credit exposure.	
(2)	The five largest counterparty exposures, combined, for this category represented approximately 2% of the total net credit exposure.	
(3)	The five largest counterparty exposures, combined, for this category represented approximately 40% of the total net credit exposure.	
(4)	The five largest counterparty exposures, combined, for this category represented approximately 2% of the total net credit exposure.	
(5)	Excludes the Millstone 2019 power purchase agreements.  	
Investing Cash Flows
Net cash used in Dominion Energy’s investing activities increased $1.1 billion, primarily due to an increase in plant construction and other property additions, the absence of cash acquired in the SCANA Combination and the acquisitions of Pivotal LNG, Inc. and an additional interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline.  
Financing Cash Flows and Liquidity
Dominion Energy relies on capital markets as significant sources of funding for capital requirements not satisfied by cash provided by its operations. As discussed further in Credit Ratings and Debt Covenants in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, the ability to borrow funds or issue securities and the return demanded by investors are affected by credit ratings. In addition, the raising of external capital is subject to certain regulatory requirements, including registration with the SEC for certain issuances.
Dominion Energy currently meets the definition of a well-known seasoned issuer under SEC rules governing the registration, communications and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The rules provide for a streamlined shelf registration process to provide registrants with timely access to capital. This allows Dominion Energy to use automatic shelf registration statements to register any offering of securities, other than those for exchange offers or business combination transactions.
Net cash provided by Dominion Energy's financing activities was $1.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net cash used by financing activities of $383 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to lower repayments of long-term debt.
In November 2017, Dominion Energy filed an SEC shelf registration statement for the sale of up to $3.0 billion of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, called Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM. The registration limits the principal amount that may be outstanding at any one time to $1.0 billion. The notes are offered on a continuous basis and bear interest at a floating rate per annum determined by the Dominion Energy Reliability Investment Committee, or its designee, on a weekly basis. The notes have no stated maturity date, are non-transferable and may be redeemed in whole or in part by Dominion Energy or at the investor’s option at any time. The balance as of March 31, 2020 was $119 million. The notes are short-term debt obligations on Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes and to repay debt.
See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for further information regarding Dominion Energy’s credit facilities, liquidity and significant financing transactions.

Credit Ratings
Credit ratings are intended to provide banks and capital market participants with a framework for comparing the credit quality of securities and are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. In the Credit Ratings section of MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, there is a discussion on the use of capital markets by Dominion Energy as well as the impact of credit ratings on the accessibility and costs of using these markets. As of March 31, 2020, there have been no changes in Dominion Energy’s credit ratings.
Debt Covenants
In the Debt Covenants section of MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, there is a discussion on the various covenants present in the enabling agreements underlying Dominion Energy’s debt. In addition, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for a description of certain financial covenants associated with term loan and revolving credit agreements entered into in the first quarter of 2020. As of March 31, 2020, there have been no material changes to debt covenants, nor any events of default under Dominion Energy’s debt covenants.
Future Cash Payments for Contractual Obligations and Planned Capital Expenditures
As of March 31, 2020, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to Dominion Energy’s contractual obligations nor any material changes to planned capital expenditures as disclosed in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Use of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Future Issues and Other Matters
The following discussion of future issues and other information includes current developments of previously disclosed matters and new issues arising during the period covered by, and subsequent to, the dates of Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Financial Statements that may impact future results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows. This section should be read in conjunction with Item 1. Business and Future Issues and Other Matters in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Environmental Matters
Dominion Energy is subject to costs resulting from a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. These laws and regulations affect future planning and existing operations. They can result in increased capital, operating and other costs as a result of compliance, remediation, containment and monitoring obligations. See Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for additional information on various environmental matters.
Legal Matters
See Notes 13 and 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Notes 13 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Item 1. Legal Proceedings in this report for additional information on various legal matters.
Regulatory Matters

Atlantic Coast Pipeline
In September 2014, Dominion Energy, along with Duke and Southern, announced the formation of Atlantic Coast Pipeline. Atlantic Coast Pipeline is focused on constructing an approximately 600-mile natural gas pipeline running from West Virginia through Virginia to North Carolina. Atlantic Coast Pipeline has continued to experience delays in obtaining and/or maintaining permits necessary for construction along with construction delays due to judicial actions. In February 2020, the Supreme Court of the U.S. heard oral arguments in Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s case regarding the Appalachian Trail crossing and is expected to issue a ruling by June 2020. If a favorable ruling is not received, Atlantic Coast Pipeline is also evaluating possible legislative and administrative remedies to this issue. Given the legal challenges, the project is expected to enter full in-service in early 2022, with project costs estimated to be approximately $8 billion, excluding financing costs. Atlantic Coast Pipeline has reached agreements in principle with major customers to amend the contracted rate to share in certain delay cost increases, pending certain regulatory approvals. Project construction activities, schedules and costs are subject to uncertainty due to permitting and/or work delays (including due to judicial or regulatory action), abnormal weather and other conditions that could result in cost or schedule modifications in the future, a suspension of AFUDC for Atlantic Coast Pipeline and/or impairment charges potentially material to Dominion Energy’s cash flows, financial position and/or results of operations. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for more information.
NWP 12 Permitting
In April 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana issued an order vacating an NWP 12 issued by the Army Corps of Engineers and remanding the permit back to the Army Corps of Engineers for consultation under the Endangered Species Act. In 2017, the Army Corps of Engineers issued an NWP 12 authorizing discharges related to construction projects into waters of the U.S. The court concluded that the issuance of the NWP 12 was unlawful because the Army Corps of Engineers did not consult under the Endangered Species Act with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service. The court also enjoined the Army Corps of Engineers from authorizing any dredge or fill activities under NWP 12. Following the court’s ruling, the Army Corps of Engineers suspended the NWP 12. Also in April 2020, the U.S. Department of Justice, along with other defendants, filed a motion to stay the portions of the court’s order that vacated NWP 12 and enjoined the Army Corps of Engineers from authorizing any dredge or fill activities under NWP 12.  Defendants also filed a motion to expedite briefing and consideration of such request for stay to no later than May 2020 and indicated that they intended to file an appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit immediately following the court’s determination.
The court’s order has significant near-term implications for all U.S. utilities, including electric, gas, water and communications, that are constructing projects requiring discharges into waters of the U.S. Because NWP 12 has been suspended, the Army Corps of Engineers may decline to verify future construction activities submitted under NWP 12 pending further court action.  As Dominion Energy relies on NWP 12 for many of its energy infrastructure projects, as well as the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project, the court’s ruling has the potential for causing a significant delay in construction schedules.  While Dominion Energy expects that the court’s decision will be challenged by the federal defendants in that case, at this time Dominion Energy cannot predict the timing or outcome of such proceedings.
Significant Contracted Generation Investment
In May 2020, Dominion Energy announced it is leading a consortium of offshore wind energy industry participants in pursuing the development of a Jones Act compliant offshore wind installation vessel. This vessel will be designed to handle current turbine technologies as well as next generation turbine sizes of 12 MW or larger. The vessel will be funded by the consortium participants including Dominion Energy, based on its proportional share of equity interest in the project which is still to be finalized, and is expected to enter service in 2023 and operate for several years under contracts with multiple major U.S. offshore wind developers.
COVID-19
Dominion Energy is monitoring the global outbreak of COVID-19 and taking steps to mitigate the potential risks to Dominion Energy posed by the spread of the virus. Dominion Energy provides a critical service to its customers which means that it is paramount that Dominion Energy keeps its employees who operate its businesses safe and informed. For example, Dominion Energy has taken precautions with regard to employee and facility hygiene, imposed travel limitations on employees, directed employees to work remotely whenever possible and expanded health and paid time off benefits for employees. Additional protocols are being implemented for required work within customer premises to protect Dominion Energy’s employees, such customers and the public. In addition, Dominion Energy has assessed and updated its existing business continuity plans for its business units in the context of this pandemic. Dominion Energy is also working with suppliers to understand the potential impacts to its supply chain; however, at this time, no material risks to Dominion Energy’s supply chain have been identified. This is a rapidly evolving situation, and Dominion Energy will continue to monitor developments affecting its workforce, suppliers and other aspects of its business, such as construction projects, and will take additional precautions as Dominion Energy believes are warranted. In addition, Dominion Energy continues to monitor both customer demand and its ability to collect customer receivables. . While Dominion Energy currently does not expect a material impact to its results of operations from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its operations, the ultimate impacts on its results of operations, financial position and/or cash flows could be material based on the ultimate duration of the pandemic and the related economic recovery.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The matters discussed in this Item may contain “forward-looking statements” as described in the introductory paragraphs under Part I, Item 2. MD&A in this report. The reader’s attention is directed to those paragraphs for discussion of various risks and uncertainties that may impact the Companies.
Market Risk Sensitive Instruments and Risk Management
The Companies’ financial instruments, commodity contracts and related financial derivative instruments are exposed to potential losses due to adverse changes in commodity prices, interest rates and equity security prices as described below. Commodity price risk is present in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s electric operations and Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ natural gas procurement and marketing operations due to the exposure to market shifts in prices received and paid for electricity, natural gas and other commodities. The Companies use commodity derivative contracts to manage price risk exposures for these operations. Interest rate risk is generally related to their outstanding debt and future issuances of debt. In addition, the Companies are exposed to investment price risk through various portfolios of equity and debt securities.
The following sensitivity analysis estimates the potential loss of future earnings or fair value from market risk sensitive instruments over a selected time period due to a 10% change in commodity prices or interest rates.
Commodity Price Risk
To manage price risk, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power hold commodity-based derivative instruments held for non-trading purposes associated with purchases and sales of electricity, natural gas and other energy-related products. Dominion Energy Gas’ operations are contracted primarily under long-term fixed reservation agreements. Accordingly, management believes that Dominion Energy Gas is not subject to material commodity price risk.
The derivatives used to manage commodity price risk are executed within established policies and procedures and may include instruments such as futures, forwards, swaps, options and FTRs that are sensitive to changes in the related commodity prices. For sensitivity analysis purposes, the hypothetical change in market prices of commodity-based derivative instruments is determined based on models that consider the market prices of commodities in future periods, the volatility of the market prices in each period, as well as the time value factors of the derivative instruments. Prices and volatility are principally determined based on observable market prices.
A hypothetical 10% decrease in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease in fair value of $46 million and $50 million of Dominion Energy’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
A hypothetical 10% decrease in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease in fair value of $44 million and $54 million of Virginia Power’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The impact of a change in energy commodity prices on the Companies' commodity-based derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net losses from commodity-based financial derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction, such as revenue from physical sales of the commodity.
Interest Rate Risk
The Companies manage their interest rate risk exposure predominantly by maintaining a balance of fixed and variable rate debt. They also enter into interest rate sensitive derivatives, including interest rate swaps and interest rate lock agreements. For variable rate debt outstanding for Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas, a hypothetical 10% increase in market interest rates would not have resulted in a material change in earnings at March 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019.  
The Companies also use interest rate derivatives, including forward-starting swaps, as hedges of forecasted interest payments. As of March 31, 2020, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas had $8.0 billion, $2.1 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $84 million, $49 million and $8 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ interest rate derivatives at March 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas had $6.4 billion, $1.9 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $135 million, $88 million and $17 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ interest rate derivatives at December 31, 2019.
106

Dominion Energy Gas holds foreign currency swaps for the purpose of hedging the foreign currency exchange risk associated with Euro denominated debt. At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas had €250 million in aggregate notional amounts of these foreign currency swaps outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $5 million in the fair value of Dominion Energy Gas' foreign currency swaps at March 31, 2020 and would not have resulted in a material decrease in the fair value of Dominion Energy Gas’ foreign currency swaps at December 31, 2019.
The impact of a change in interest rates on the Companies’ interest rate-based financial derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net gains and/or losses from interest rate derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction.
Investment Price Risk
Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are subject to investment price risk due to securities held as investments in nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust funds that are managed by third-party investment managers. These trust funds primarily hold marketable securities that are reported in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.
Dominion Energy recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $876 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $448 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and $1.0 billion for the year ended December 31, 2019. Net realized gains and losses include gains and losses from the sale of investments in both 2020 and 2019 as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value in 2019 only. Dominion Energy recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net increase in unrealized gains on debt investments of $39 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and $74 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Virginia Power recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $412 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $202 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and $481 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Net realized gains and losses include gains and losses from the sale of investments in both 2020 and 2019 as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value in 2019 only. Virginia Power recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net decrease in unrealized gains on debt investments of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and recorded increase in unrealized gains on debt investments of $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and $30 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Dominion Energy sponsors pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans that hold investments in trusts to fund employee benefit payments. Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas employees participate in these plans. Differences between actual and expected returns on plan assets are accumulated and amortized during future periods. As such, any investment-related declines in these trusts will result in future increases in the net periodic cost recognized for employee benefit plans and will be included in the determination of the amount of cash to be contributed to the employee benefit plans.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Senior management of each of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas, including Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of each of their respective company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation process, each of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ CEO and CFO have concluded that each of their respective company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There were no changes that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect Dominion Energy, Virginia Power or Dominion Energy Gas’ internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Companies are alleged to be in violation or in default under orders, statutes, rules or regulations relating to the environment, compliance plans imposed upon or agreed to by the Companies, or permits issued by various local, state and/or federal agencies for the construction or operation of facilities. Administrative proceedings may also be pending on these matters. In addition, in the ordinary course of business, the Companies and their subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings.
 
In March 2018, Virginia Power received a proposed consent order from the VDEQ in connection with alleged CWA permit violations at the Chesterfield power station in 2017. Virginia Power began working cooperatively with both the VDEQ and the EPA to resolve those and certain other alleged violations collectively. In March 2020, Virginia Power finalized a consent decree with the VDEQ and the EPA that would require Virginia Power to pay a $1.4 million civil penalty in connection with various alleged CWA permit and other violations. The consent decree is subject to a 30-day public comment period and is expected to become final and effective in the second or third quarter of 2020.
See the following for discussions on various legal, environmental and other regulatory proceedings to which the Companies are a party, which information is incorporated herein by reference:
•	Notes 13 and 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Future Issues and Other Matters in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.	
•	Notes 13 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.	
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Companies’ businesses are influenced by many factors that are difficult to predict, involve uncertainties that may materially affect actual results and are often beyond the Companies’ control. A number of these risk factors have been identified in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which should be taken into consideration when reviewing the information contained in this report Other than the risk factor discussed below, there have been no material changes with regard to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. For other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any forward-looking statement or projection contained in this report, see Forward-Looking Statements in MD&A in this report.
Public health crises and epidemics or pandemics, such as COVID-19, could adversely affect the Companies’ business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and/or cash flows.
The effects of the continued outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and related government responses could include extended disruptions to supply chains and capital markets, reduced labor availability and productivity and a prolonged reduction in economic activity. The effects could also have a variety of adverse impacts on the Companies, including reduced demand for energy, particularly from commercial and industrial customers, impairment of goodwill or long-lived assets and diminished ability of the Companies to access funds from financial institutions and capital markets.  There is considerable uncertainty regarding the extent to which COVID-19 will spread and the extent and duration of measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and shutdowns. Such restrictions may cause operational interruptions and delays in construction projects, which, in the case of renewable energy projects, could delay the expected in-service dates of these projects and financial statement impact of the investment tax credits associated with these projects beyond 2020. For the duration of the outbreak of COVID-19, voluntary suspension, or potential legislative or government action, is expected to limit the Companies’ ability to collect on overdue accounts or disconnect services for non-payment, which may cause a decrease in the Companies’ results of operations and cash flows. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Companies’ business, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and/or cash flows, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
