Skippers Storage Facility
A 345-acre rail-served industrial site in southern Greensville County, Virginia, on the North Carolina line. Owned and operated by ERI Development, LLC.
Operations
Rail unloading and waste transfer
Inbound rail cars are unloaded in the enclosed Rotary Building or at a self-contained transfer pad and loaded to trucks for on-site placement or outbound transfer.
Rail car and waste container repair
First Response performs rail car and waste container inspection and repair on site.
CCR storage and beneficiation
Coal combustion residuals from Dominion Energy's Chesterfield Power Station arrive by rail and are placed in a lined, permitted storage unit. Stored ash is processed through an on-site Ponded Ash Beneficiation System by our beneficiation partner and shipped out as a supplementary cementitious material for concrete, so the unit is emptied over time rather than closed in place.
Synagro compost facility
Synagro operates a compost facility on a leased portion of the site.
