AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Clean Water Act Lawsuit: A D.C. nonprofit says Pacific Seafoods’ Quilcene Bay hatcheries are violating the Clean Water Act, alleging it pulls and heats water to boost algae and larvae before discharging it back into Hood Canal—raising concerns for threatened species like orcas and coho. Seattle Public Safety: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson says SPD is planning immediate extra patrols along the North Aurora corridor after a string of shootings left residents alarmed. Immigration Pressure on Travel: Reuters reports DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin privately warned that “sanctuary city” airports—including Seattle—could lose customs/immigration processing, potentially disrupting international travel after the World Cup. Spokane Airport Buildout: Work is set to begin soon on Spokane International’s $195M Central Hall project, with major Memorial Day travel impacts. World Cup Cost & Rules: Ticket prices keep climbing, and Washington is also reminding boaters to stay 1,000 yards from endangered Southern Resident killer whales.
