Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The Virginia State Corporation Commission issued an order denying a motion by Dominion Virginia Power and other interested parties to defer a required biennial rate review by one year. Following evaluation of this order on February 9, 2011, Dominion Resources, Inc. (Dominion) concluded that it was appropriate to reverse a previously recorded reserve for potential rate credits that was included as part of Dominion Virginia Power’s motion, since it is no longer probable that this motion will be accepted. This will result in an increase of $48 million or 8 cents per share to fourth-quarter and full-year 2010 reported earnings that is not included in operating earnings for 2010.

Incorporating the impact of the reversal of the reserve for potential rate credits described above, reported earnings determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for the 12 months ended December 31, 2010 is $2.81 billion ($4.76 per share), which compares with reported earnings of $1.94 billion ($2.17 per share) for the same period in 2009.

The reversal of the reserve for potential rate credits does not have an incremental impact on fourth-quarter or full-year 2010 operating earnings which Dominion reported on January 28, 2011. Operating earnings are defined as reported (GAAP) earnings adjusted for certain items.

Dominion will publish on its investor information page at www.dom.com/investors, a Revised 4Q 10 Earnings Release Kit, a Revised 2011 Earnings Guidance Kit and certain supplemental schedules and GAAP reconciliations incorporating the reversal of the reserve. A revised 4Q 10 Earnings Release Kit, 2010 Segment Operating Results and Supplemental Summary of 2010 Operating Earnings reflecting the adjustment to earnings are furnished with this Form 8-K as Exhibits 99.1 through 99.3, respectively.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
