AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Coastal Conservation: Georgia’s Coastal Resources Division is bringing back Beach Week 2026 with free, family-friendly events June 29–July 1 at Jekyll Island, St. Simons, and Tybee—featuring interactive exhibits, hands-on activities, and live horseshoe crabs, plus partners like UGA Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant. Wildlife & Public Participation: The Georgia Wildlife Resources Division is asking residents to join its annual Turkey Poult Survey, reporting sightings of poults, hens, and gobblers (or none) for June–August to track long-term reproductive success. Air Quality & Fire Safety: A summer burn ban remains in effect through Sept. 30 across 54 north and central Georgia counties, limiting most outdoor burning to protect air quality and reduce wildfire risk. Contaminated Site Cleanup: Chickamauga won an additional $4 million EPA Brownfields Cleanup Grant for the former Crystal Springs Print Works site, building on a prior $1.45 million award; cleanup is expected to take 3–4 years. Data Centers & Community Pressure: Residents in Augusta’s Haynes Station area pressed QTS and Georgia Power for answers at a community meeting, questioning how the site was chosen and why homes were built nearby. Invasive Species: Georgia officials reiterated guidance on invasive 4-foot lizards, urging action to protect native wildlife. Local Nature Leadership: The Coastal Soil and Water Conservation District named its supervisors across Bryan, Chatham, Liberty, Long, and McIntosh counties, continuing education and conservation outreach. Wildlife Rescue: Two bear cubs rescued in Georgia after their mother was shot have been placed in Florida’s Flamingo Gardens sanctuary, where they’re thriving.
