AGP Executive Report

Last update: 21 hours ago

Land Conservation: Maryland DNR is asking for public comment on a draft Land Preservation and Recreation Plan that sets statewide conservation and recreation priorities for the next decade, including goals to protect 40% of land by 2040, with comments due June 28. Farm Relief After Freeze: Gov. Wes Moore ordered state agencies to help farmers hit by the April freeze, including waiving certain winery sourcing rules, pushing irrigation and risk-management support, and directing the Environment Department to prioritize water permit applications for agriculture. Chesapeake Water Quality & Recreation: Baltimore’s Harbor Splash is set to return Sunday with a “pop-up” approach to harbor swimming after last year’s rainouts, as organizers continue efforts to make the harbor swimmable. Wildlife & Invasives: Maryland officials are urging fishermen to target invasive snakeheads (“Frankenfish”) using bow fishing, with bounties up to $200, because the fish can breathe air and survive out of water. PFAS Pollution Fight: A new report argues U.S. garbage incinerators are failing to eliminate PFAS “forever chemical” air pollution and warns about disproportionate risks to low-income neighborhoods, including renewed scrutiny tied to fights in Baltimore and other cities. Data Centers & Environmental Justice: Coverage highlights how the data center boom is raising environmental justice concerns in Maryland as states grapple with power, water, and utility-bill impacts. Local Nature Stewardship: A community yarn-bombing project is set to brighten Pigtown’s Washington Boulevard lampposts, while other local stories spotlight efforts to protect and restore nature in Maryland communities.
