Site descriptionDominion Generation's Clover Power Station is located on the Staunton River in Clover, Virginia. The plant was commissioned in 1995 and has the total capacity of 848 MW. Two disposal units near the station are regulated under the CCR rule: Stage 3 Industrial Landfill and Sludge Sedimentation Basins. The Landfill, located 2,000 feet west of the generation plant, was developed and permitted in October 2000. The Sedimentation Basins, including North Basin and South Basin, receive process wastewaters, including flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sludge. You can find the industry-reported data here.
