AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Baltimore Key Bridge fallout: Federal prosecutors have indicted the Singapore-based operator of the Dali and a senior employee, alleging conspiracy, obstruction, and false statements tied to the ship’s deadly 2024 collision that killed six workers—charges that build on findings of two power blackouts moments before impact. Maryland energy politics: Gov. Wes Moore signed the Utility RELIEF Act, aiming to cut power costs by limiting how utilities justify rates and requiring data centers to pay their “fair share,” while also adding bill caps for limited-income residents. Data center pressure in Maryland: Harford County residents are pushing for emergency action, and Montgomery County is weighing a 2-year data center moratorium as neighbors demand answers on clean energy, noise, and water impacts. Solar setback elsewhere: Illinois balcony solar talks collapsed over safety/code concerns, delaying plug-in solar for apartments. Public health watch: Hantavirus monitoring is expanding after a cruise-linked outbreak, with Maryland among states tracking possible exposures. Regulatory fight over pesticides: A food-safety group sued the EPA for records on neonicotinoid-treated seed disposal, pressing to close a long-running regulatory loophole.
