Fresh news on environment in Rhode Island

AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

North Kingstown Shoreline Fight: Rhode Island AG Peter Neronha has filed suit against Quidnessett Country Club over a 600-foot seawall built without permits, alleging it violates the state’s Environmental Rights Act and blocks public access along Narragansett Bay’s sensitive “Type 1” waters. Coastal Enforcement Pressure: The case follows years of state coastal regulator orders to remove the structure and restore vegetation—environmental groups say slow enforcement is setting a bad precedent. Outdoor Safety Push: RIDOH is reminding Rhode Islanders to prevent rabies as warmer weather brings more time outside; about 2,500 animal bites are reported each year, with nine rabies-positive animals since March 12, mostly in Providence County. Local Infrastructure: East Providence’s East Bay Bike Path is temporarily closed between Kettle Point Avenue and the service road for wastewater force main repairs, expected to reopen by Friday. Business & Jobs: Lincoln-based W&H (Windmoeller & Hoelscher) marked completion of a major North American HQ expansion, doubling warehouse capacity to speed overnight parts delivery.
