An alternative line segment B begins at a point along the Proposed Route located at Riverton Substation and rather then cross the existing transmission fine as does the Proposed Route, it fellows it on the east side until it meets 1-66. From this point it leaves the existing transmission line and follows the north side of the 1-66 corridor for approximately 5 miles. It then crosses 1-66 and rejoins the Proposed Route near Virginia Route 55.

The route continues parallel to the existing 500 kV line through northeastern Rappahannock County crossing Routes 637, 647 (crossing Rt. 647 approximately 900 feet east of the intersection of RL 647 and Rt. 638), 637,645,643 aid 669. The route continues through Culpeper County crossing Routes 613,211, 229 (crossing Rt. 229 approximately 1.8 miles south of the intersection of Rt 229 and Rt 211), 802 and 623. The Proposed Route re-enters Fauquier County at the point where the existing 50° kV line crosses the Rappahannock River and continues to parallel this line crossing Routes 651, 660,786 (crossing Rt 786 approximately 800 feet northeast of the intersection of Rt 786 and Rt 658), 657,29, Business 29 and 6Wto a point approximately 0.9 miles east of Remington. At this point the Proposed Route intersects with an existing east/west transmission line corridor occupied by 115 kV and 230 kV lines. The Proposed Route turns eastward aid parallels this line past Remington Substation aid the Remington Combustion Turbine Station crossing Routes 655 and 782. Irrenediately east of the Combustion Turbine Station the Proposed Route continues eastward following an existing 115 kV corridor (the #183 Line) crossing Routes 653,17,602,610,607,806, 748 (crossing Rt 748 approximately 900 feet southeast of the intersection of RL 748 and RL 806), 806 (twice) and 616 where it intersects with an existing north/south transmission line corridor (the #569 Line). At this point the Proposed Route turns north within this existing corridor through eastern Fauquier County crossing Routes 609, 611 (crossing RL 611 approximately 4000 feet east of the intersection of Rt 611 and Rt 806) and 640. The route proceeds through northern Prince William County crossing Routes 606, 28,652,215 (crossing Rt 215 approximately 500 feet of the intersection of Rt 215 and Rt 657), 619,674, 234, 781,1-66, 705, 29 and 234 then into southern Loudoun County, terminating at Loudoun Substation.
The Alternate Route is approximately 37 miles long and begins approximately 0.5 miles east of Linden and proceeds east on I-66 for approximately 30 miles through Fauquier and Prince William Counties to where an existing Dominion Virginia Power 500 kV line (Line #569) crosses I-66 approximately 2000 feet east of the intersection of I-66 and Rt 234 (Bypass). At this point the Alternate Route turns north within this existing corridor through northern Prince William County crossing Routes 705, 29 and 234 into southern Loudoun County and terminates at Loudoun Substation.
