AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoDrinking Water: WSSC Water is restarting a pilot to test PFAS treatment at its Potomac plant and has budgeted nearly $298 million for treatment. Its water currently meets federal standards, though a July sample recorded PFOS above the limit; the standard is not enforceable until 2029. Data Center Pressure: A national poll found 72% of Americans oppose data centers in their communities, as Maryland’s own debate increasingly centers on power, water and neighborhood impacts. Stormwater Cleanup: Charles County has treated runoff from 621 of the 1,083 acres required under its permit and says it is on track to meet the goal by December 2027. Bay and Harbor: The Chesapeake Bay received its highest water-quality score yet, while 5,000 gallons of molasses spilled into Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, renewing concerns about pollution in local waterways. Farm Pollution: A report says Maryland’s $15 million manure fund cannot show that the Bay got cleaner, even as pollution persists.
