AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

PFAS & Water Justice: More than 550 Maryland families near Salisbury are asking a federal court to sanction Perdue after the company canceled PFAS mediation days before it was set to begin, prolonging uncertainty over alleged contamination of wells and groundwater. PFAS on Farms: Maryland’s new limits on PFAS in sewage sludge spread on fields are taking effect, with reporting raising concerns that the threshold may be set higher than what many treatment plants already produce. Data Centers, Power, and Backlash: Amazon has withdrawn plans for data centers near Calvert Cliffs, and Calvert County is moving toward a temporary six-month moratorium to review zoning and environmental impacts; the decision follows voter pushback in the June primary. Local Plastic Policy: Montgomery County’s plastic bag ban appears to be working, with a Sierra Club study finding reusable bag use up and plastic carryout bags down sharply since the Jan. 1 start. Wildlife & Farming: A Lower Shore workshop from University of Maryland Extension shared practical ways farmers can reduce crop losses from deer and other wildlife. Coastal Waters: Ocean City is seeing more sea nettles, with marine biologist Dr. Ellen Prager pointing to warming waters, nutrient pollution, and fewer jellyfish-eating animals. Governance & Oversight: Maryland lawmakers advanced a constitutional amendment referendum to clarify congressional redistricting standards for future maps. Clean Energy Leadership: The Maryland Clean Energy Center’s executive director announced plans to retire after 17 years.
