AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Deep-Sea Mining Watch: American Samoa launched deepseainfo.as.gov to explain the proposed offshore minerals lease, share science and documents, and keep residents engaged as decisions move through the federal process. Local Governance & Spending Scrutiny: The Senate Government Operations Committee kept pressing questions over American Samoa’s $10.1 million ARPA interest investment tied to UAE entities, including why procurement reviews may have been bypassed and when returns are expected. Public Safety & Accountability: The American Samoa Democratic Party backed a Fono resolution opposing the proposed offshore lease sale, urging federal decision-makers to protect ocean resources and local way of life. Climate & Fisheries: The Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council urged expedited reviews of green sea turtle status for Guam, CNMI, and American Samoa to support possible restoration of traditional cultural harvests. Natural Hazards: A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck near New Caledonia’s Loyalty Islands; the tsunami warning system reported no threat to Hawaii, Guam, CNMI, or American Samoa. Health Funding: The CDC awarded American Samoa $250,586 to strengthen epidemiology, lab, and infectious-disease surveillance through 2029. AI Policy Push: Nearly two dozen states, including American Samoa, signed onto a call for Congress to set federal AI safety rules and oversight.
