AGP Executive Report

Last update: 20 minutes ago

Water Safety Accountability: Michigan AG Dana Nessel filed a civil lawsuit against Douglas Environmental president Brian Powell, alleging more than 8,500 false water testing reports for mobile home communities—an EGLE-linked crackdown after Powell’s probation and Douglas Environmental’s $50,000 fine. Foodborne Parasite Alert: Cyclospora cases keep climbing, with Michigan reporting nearly 1,000 new diagnoses and officials pointing to lettuce or salad greens as a possible source; guidance urges whole-head lettuce, ditching outer layers, and avoiding bagged greens and salad kits. Air Quality & Heat: EGLE issued a statewide air quality alert for Wednesday as Canadian wildfire smoke and fine particulates move south, with “unhealthy for sensitive groups” expected; Branch County also faces heat advisory conditions. Local Land-Use Fight: Haring Township residents rallied for a data center ban, and the board discussed a six-month moratorium amid concerns about electricity, water use, noise, and pollution. Great Lakes Pollution Research: A Notre Dame-led PFAS study tracks how “forever chemicals” move through Great Lakes food webs, finding PFOS declines in lower lakes but persistence in Lake Superior and Lake Michigan. Wildlife Impacts on Recreation: Isle Royale closed another campground after increased wolf activity tied to improper food storage.
