TO THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION:

     By order dated December 15, 1999 (HCAR No. 27112) (the "Initial
Financing Order") in the proceedings at File No. 70-9517, the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("Commission") permitted the Application-
Declaration of Dominion Resources, Inc. ("Dominion"), an exempt holding
company, and Consolidated Natural Gas Company ("Old CNG"), a registered
holding company, to become effective.  Concurrently, by order dated
December 15, 1999 (HCAR No. 27113), the Commission authorized the merger
(the "Merger") of Old CNG into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dominion, which
subsidiary as the survivor of the merger changed its name to Consolidated
Natural Gas Company ("CNG").  The Merger was consummated on January 28,
2000.  The Initial Financing Order authorized post-Merger financings for
Dominion and CNG, and requires the filing by Dominion of certain
certificates of notification pursuant to Rule 24.

     By Commission order dated May 24, 2001 (HCAR No. 27406) (the "Second
Financing Order") in the proceedings at File No. 70-9555, the financing


                                       1


authorizations of Dominion and its subsidiaries given in the Initial
Financing Order were enhanced and extended.

     By Commission order dated October 5, 2000 (HCAR No. 27242) (the
"Restructuring Order") in the proceeding at File No. 70-9679, Dominion was
authorized to reorganize and restructure its existing nonutility interests
along business and functional lines, using one of several business
organizations.

     This certificate provides information with respect to transactions
occurring under the Initial Financing Order, the Second Financing Order and
the Restructuring Order during the third quarter of 2001 with respect to
Dominion and its subsidiaries, including Dominion Energy, Inc. ("DEI"),
Dominion Capital, Inc. ("DCI"), and Virginia Electric and Power Company
("Virginia Power").

     Rule 52 transactions occurring during the quarter, if any, are reported
on Forms U-6B-2 filed as exhibits to this certificate.

            On May 31, 2001, Dominion, Virginia Power and CNG entered into
        a 364 day credit facility agreement with a consortium of 22 banks.
        The credit agreement allows aggregate borrowings by Dominion,
        Virginia Power and CNG up to $1.975 billion.  Subject to the
        maximum aggregate limit of $1.975 billion, Virginia Power and CNG
        may borrow up to the full commitment and Dominion may borrow up to
        $750 million.  Although Virginia Power and CNG each have access to
        the full $1.975 billion, they will operate within internally
        allocated limits of $200 million and $850 million, respectively.
        No borrowings were made under the credit agreement during the
        quarter.

     C. Long-Term Debt

            On July 2, 2001 Dominion issued $100,000,000 principal amount
        of Medium Term Notes, Series A - Floating Rate ("Notes") in a
        public offering through Merrill Lynch & Co. as agent.  The net
        proceeds to DRI after the agent's discount or commission of
        $250,000 was $99,750,000.  The Notes have a stated maturity date of
        July 2, 2003.

            The Notes carry interest at LIBOR plus 60 basis points.  The
        initial interest rate was set at 4.39% per annum and is reset every
        three months.  The Notes were offered and sold to the public
        pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated May 25, 2001, to

        The registration statement, the base Rule 424(b) prospectus and
        the prospectus supplement are hereby incorporated by reference.

            The net proceeds were used to meet a portion of general capital
        requirements or the refinancing of other outstanding debt.


II.  EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN, AND GUARANTIES AND OTHER CREDIT SUPPORT BY
     DOMINION FOR OR ON BEHALF OF DEI, DCI AND/OR THEIR SUBSIDIARIES

        in relation to repayment of debt by certain of its subsidiaries and
        in relation to electric power or gas purchases or delivery
        performances of its subsidiaries.  The estimated total exposure on
        these guaranties as of September 30, 2001 is approximately $2.7
        billion, and the subsidiaries' debt subject to such guaranties
        totaled $721 million.

III. RULE 52 TRANSACTIONS BY VIRGINIA POWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES

IV.  RESTRUCTURING OF NONUTILITY INTERESTS

     From time to time Dominion Exploration & Production, Inc. ("DEPI")
may enter into a standard form of farm-out agreement with Dominion
Transmission, Inc. ("DTI") with respect to leases owned by DTI.  DEPI
pursuant to the agreements would acquire the right to drill wells on lands
covered by leases owned by DTI.  DTI, to the extent DEPI has completed
wells under the agreement, is obligated to assign to DEPI the rights to the
wells and associated leases following request by DEPI.  To the extent such
lease interests may be considered an interest in a business, the assignment
of the leases from DTI to DEPI would be a restructuring of nonutility
interests within the Dominion system pursuant to the Restructuring Order.
