AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoInvasive Species Control: RIDEM is treating five acres of Meadowbrook Pond for invasive aquatic plants (Variable Milfoil and Curly-Leaf Pondweed) starting Thursday; avoid contact with the pond until Sunday and watch for boat-ramp greeters to help stop spread. Wildlife-Safe Rodent Control: Rhode Island will phase out the sale of first- and second-generation rat poisons under a new law, with restrictions starting in 2027 and 2028, aiming to protect birds of prey and other wildlife from poisoned rodents. Blue-Green Algae Update: RIDOH and RIDEM lifted the “avoid” recommendation for Worden Pond in South Kingstown after testing showed low algae levels and no toxins detected, though conditions can change fast. Microplastics & Health: New research links higher microplastics-laden plaque in neck arteries to greater risk of strokes, heart attacks, and sudden death—another push for stronger pollution rules. Weather Watch (RI): Sunday stays warm and mostly pleasant, but clouds build with a chance of showers later; Monday brings widespread rain risk later in the day.
