AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Coal Power Push: The Trump administration announced $850 million for coal plant modernization plus two new plants and coal-export infrastructure, using the Defense Production Act—critics call it an unnecessary subsidy. Rural Energy Strain: A University of Alaska estimate says every $1 rise in fuel costs drains $100 million from rural economies; Bethel’s first fuel barge brought prices near $9 a gallon, with more barges heading north. Arctic Mining Moves: APA Corporation agreed to buy Savant Alaska for about $70 million, adding Badami facilities and the Nutaaq Pipeline to support eastern North Slope development. Local Industry & Jobs: Trilogy Metals launched its 2026 Upper Kobuk field program with about 40 drill holes aimed at advancing an Arctic copper-zinc-lead-gold-silver project toward a construction decision. Transboundary Fisheries Fight: B.C. is taking public comment on the proposed Polaris gold mine near Juneau, with Alaska advocates warning pollution could harm salmon in shared rivers. Environment & Infrastructure: NOAA hydrographic surveys are underway around Kodiak after decades without updates, while Juneau adjusted glacial outburst flood wall funding to improve fairness for homeowners. Energy Market Watch: Gas prices dipped in multiple Alaska regions in the week ending May 30, with the lowest midgrade reported at $5.59 in Yukon-Koyukuk. Climate Science: Alaska rivers are turning rust-orange as thawing permafrost releases iron and sulfur chemistry into waterways.
