AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Data Center Pollution: Chesapeake’s new council members have all opposed data-center development, while Virginia is tightening air-permit limits for backup generators as concerns grow over diesel exhaust near schools. Wildlife and Drought: Drought and equipment failures killed 130,000 trout at a Virginia hatchery, and farms are struggling with short feed supplies for cattle. Water Quality: A Middle Peninsula pilot aims to reduce nutrient pollution, while a salmonella outbreak in a Virginia estuary has halted shellfish harvesting. Cleaner Projects: Electric construction equipment is helping build an accessible trail at Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge with less noise and exhaust; Virginia Beach is also advancing a project to turn wastewater byproduct into renewable natural gas. Household Energy: Solar assistance for thousands of Virginia households remains frozen despite court orders to restore it.
