AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Flood Watch / Flash Flood Risk: Heavy rain and thunderstorms are expected Sunday across Rhode Island and nearby areas, with a Flood Watch in effect and the biggest risk for localized street flooding from Providence into interior southeastern Massachusetts; totals of about 1–3 inches are possible, with narrow bands potentially dumping 2–4 inches in a few hours. Coastal Habitat Restoration: RIDEM, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and Save the Bay have started restoring dune and marsh habitat at Ninigret Barrier Beach (East Beach) by removing invasive trees/plants and restoring tidal creeks to support wildlife like piping plovers and saltmarsh sparrows. Invasive Species / Boating Controls: A new buoy-marked boating lane near Worden Pond Boat Ramp aims to reduce hydrilla fragments being chopped up by propellers, as part of broader hydrilla management. Public Health Alert: RIDOH is investigating a potentially rabid bat incident at Roger Williams Park Zoo and is asking anyone with possible contact around Aug. 24 to call. Climate Litigation & Courts: A new report alleges a coordinated campaign to influence how judges handle climate lawsuits, raising questions about neutrality in climate-legal training. Renewable Energy: Rhode Island Energy has tentatively agreed to buy 150 MW of onshore wind power from northern Maine, shifting focus landward after offshore wind setbacks.
