AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Weather and Wildlife: A powerful cold front brought gusts up to 60 mph in Colchester and the season’s first snowflakes to Vermont’s higher elevations. UVM Extension also shared ways to protect late-season crops from frost. In North Pomfret, a rare white porcupine was spotted crossing a road. Flood Recovery: Barre will use a $4.24 million grant to build 17 homes outside the floodplain and move Wobby Park to land cleared through property buyouts, following the 2023 floods. Water Systems: A broken press at Rutland’s wastewater plant has halted sludge service for neighboring towns for weeks; some are paying four times more to send it elsewhere. Farms and Water Quality: Vermont farmers will discuss the future of dairy, working lands and water quality at screenings of a new documentary. State data show 401 dairy operations remain, down from 636 in 2020.
