AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Shoreline Protection: Vermont’s DEC is urging lakefront owners to use Shoreland Best Management Practices—like native plantings, rain gardens, and no-mow zones—to cut erosion and protect water quality under the Shoreland Protection Act, which covers activities within 250 feet of many lakes and ponds. Offshore Wind Fight: Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark joined a coalition suing the U.S. Department of the Interior to block a Trump-era deal that would cancel offshore wind leases off New York in exchange for about $1 billion in taxpayer-backed payments to TotalEnergies, with plaintiffs arguing it violates federal law and undermines climate and jobs. Climate Science in Court: AG William Tong led a coalition letter opposing the Federal Judicial Center’s removal of a peer-reviewed climate science reference guide from its judicial manual, warning that climate-related litigation is growing and judges still need accurate guidance. Data Center Concerns: A Vermont Business Magazine report highlights how communities are reacting to proposed data centers—citing worries about noise, heat, and rising electricity and water use. Rural Innovation: UVM’s RISE Summit on June 16 will focus on “Partnerships for Rural Prosperity,” including a keynote on how rural communities can approach AI with public trust in mind. Ticks and Summer Risk: CDC reporting says tick-bite ER visits are at the highest levels for this time of year since 2017, with warmer conditions driving more tick activity in the Northeast.
