AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Coastal Resilience: Louisiana is moving ahead with a $51 million project to add three miles of rock breakwaters off Grand Isle, aiming to slow beach erosion and better protect the storm-battered barrier island. Tourism & Travel Safety: With summer heat sticking around, a Magnolia-area forecast calls for near-100-degree days and high heat indexes—another reminder to plan outdoor time carefully. Gas Watch: Local prices are easing in spots, including Bossier Parish’s lowest regular gas at $3.19 (week ending Aug. 22), while the national average regular price sits at $4.09 and is still poised to set a new August record. Health Alert: A brain-eating amoeba story is back in the spotlight, with guidance urging swimmers not to get water up their noses and to be cautious in warm freshwater. Local Recovery: Lafourche’s fire station damage from Hurricane Ida still isn’t fully resolved, with FEMA decisions and repair roadblocks dragging on. Community Memory: New Orleans marked 21 years since Katrina with wreath-laying and commemorations across the city.
