AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Data Center Pushback: A proposed 220-acre data center campus in Frederick County was withdrawn from the board’s agenda, halting the project for now. The move comes amid wider Virginia scrutiny of data center growth and its impacts. Drought: Henrico remains under drought watch as conditions vary across the state: Hampton Roads has a drought warning, while the New River Valley is out of watch status. Recycling: Only about 10% of glass collected for recycling in Virginia is turned into new products, as limited processing capacity and recycling systems hamper progress across the Chesapeake Bay region. Coastal Waters: An unusual mahogany tide caused an estimated $16 million in oyster losses on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. Pollution: A Virginia Mercury commentary urges stronger action to curb PFAS contamination in the state’s waters.
