Virginia-based Dominion, aka Dominion Transmission Inc. is a public utility which owns drilling rights to about 600 to 800 thousand acres of the Marcellus shale. It sold roughly 115 million acres to Antero Resources, but retains a 7.5% royalty on any gas production from this acreage.

According to an October, 2008 report Dominion Gas had a well fire in Leidy Township, Clinton County, Pennsylvania and had to bring in a specially trained fire-fighting team from Texas in order to control it.

A November, 2008 report found Dominion Resources, Inc. leasing gas storage and possibly planning to drill on the Westmoreland Glass Factory site in Grapeville, Pennsylvania about 30 miles east of Pittsburgh in Westmoreland County. The site is controlled by the Beacon Redevelopment Industrial Corporation.
