AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Mississippi Gulf Coast Industry & Environment: Chevron teamed with local fire and state marine partners to sink unused industrial equipment off the coast near Petit Bois Island, creating an artificial reef to boost fish habitat and recreational fishing. Manufacturing & Construction: Gainey’s marked 45 years in Mississippi’s precast concrete business, expanding wastewater treatment and specialty contracting capabilities while growing its workforce. Workforce & Training: A push to expand U.S. registered apprenticeships toward a “million-apprentice” goal is running into a funding and modernization gap, with experts pointing to outdated rules and insufficient long-term investment. Energy & Data Centers: Utilities say data-center-driven grid upgrades are helping lower some residential bills, while other communities are debating land, trust, and impacts as new facilities move forward. Agriculture & Labor: A federal lawsuit in Mississippi alleges a farm used H-2A visas to pay Black U.S. farmworkers less than white South African workers doing similar work. Public Safety: Mississippi’s American Legion named a Lawrence County JROTC educator and a volunteer firefighter for state honors.
