    “NRG Energy, owners of the closed Potomac River Generating Station on the Alexandria waterfront, will perform maintenance on a section of the Mount Vernon Trail located behind the coal plant (near mile marker 11) from Aug. 19 to Sept. 6.

    There will be periodic closures of the trail during this period while equipment and materials are moved across the trail.

    A flagman and signage will be visible at both ends of the trail during maintenance. NRG Energy, which formed by a merger between GenOn and NRG, cautions trail users to be alert during the maintenance period.

    Mount Vernon Trail users should use the alternate trail located in front of the power plant that runs along Bashford Lane and E. Abingdon Drive. The alternate route meets the Mount Vernon Trail on the north side of the plant.”
