Dominion Resources (D)
Dominion shareholders filed four requests for shareholders to vote on at the company’s upcoming annual meeting. The proposals are published in its latest proxy statement.
The first proposal asked for a report from the company on the impact and timing of a future policy to end its use of coal mined through the controversial mountaintop removal mining.
The second request asked that the company include environmental sustainability as one of the performance measures it considers when setting executive compensation plans.
A third proposal asked the company to adopt and implement a policy to better manage the dangers that might arise from an accident or sabotage on its stored, spent fuel from nuclear power plants.
The final shareholder proposal asks Dominion to issue a report on the financial risks posed to the company by climate change including the impact of more frequent and more intense storms.
Dominion’s board recommends that shareholders vote against all four proposals.
