AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoIndustrial Oversight: West Virginia gave Clean-Seas another year to meet job and investment targets tied to a $1.75 million forgivable loan, despite missed benchmarks and concerns over its planned plastics-conversion facility near Belle, less than 500 feet from Riverside High School. Fuel Costs: Gov. Patrick Morrisey’s 60-day order allows red-dyed diesel on highways, potentially saving businesses 20.5 cents per gallon as diesel tops $6. But limited availability may curb the benefit, and the order does not help gasoline drivers. Consumer Relief: A multistate settlement will cancel $4.4 million in lease payments owed by West Virginians who used Snap Finance’s lease-to-own agreements, allowing them to keep their purchases. Power and Data Centers: Regulators are reviewing proposed rules on power-plant capacity as debate grows over data-center projects, including a proposed air-pollution permit in Mason County. Valley Link also plans a new round of meetings on its proposed transmission line from the John Amos plant toward Virginia and Maryland; the route could affect landowners, while developers cite grid reliability and tax revenue. Mine Safety: Remediation is set to begin at the White Hall coal-seam fire, which has burned for decades.
