About Kraken Loop / North Anna Brister
- The Kraken / North Anna Brister is a monstrous, 120 foot wide clear cut corridor that cuts across the entire length of Stafford County. That’s almost as wide as I-95!
- The Kraken Loop / North Anna Brister proprosal includes two high voltage power lines. The plan includes 170 foot monopole towers carrying 500 kV and a 230 kV lines to provide power redundancy to AI data centers outside Stafford County.
- These high voltage power lines are set to pass within 45 feet of homes and properties throughout Stafford.
- The Kraken Blister is proposed to pass through the properties of 864 homes in Stafford County.
- The Kraken Blister is proposed to pass over home plate at Rodney Thompson Middle School, which will result in that field’s demolition.
- The Kraken Blister will cause the demolishing of the running track at Mountain View High School.
- The Kraken’s poles are so high and so close to homes that HUD rules about nuisance power lines will come into effect, meaning that many property owners will be unable to sell or buy homes on the proposed route.
- The Kraken Blister is proposed to pass through Autumn Ridge Park.
- Dominion Energy is a financially failing company with a “Negative” credit rating from Moody’s, according to its own investor page in November 2025.
- Dominion’s other smaller projects are loosing hundreds of millions of dollars. Will Stafford end up paying for the Kraken when Dominion collapses?
