MDWFP: Harrison County reports first-ever case of CWD in deer
SUMMARY: The first case of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Harrison County, Mississippi has been confirmed by the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks. A hunter-harvested buck was tested and found positive for the disease, which is a contagious and fatal neurological disorder affecting deer, characterized by weight loss, behavior changes, and death. The National Veterinary Services Laboratories validated the results. Mississippi has established CWD management zones with strict hunting and transportation regulations to control the disease. Since February 2018, 218 cases of CWD have been identified across 11 counties in the state. Hunters can get deer tested at designated sites.

Investigation finds MDEQ did not racially discriminate against Jackson in funding water systems
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) has been cleared of allegations of racial discrimination in its funding of water system improvements for Jackson by the EPA. The probe began after the NAACP filed a complaint. MDEQ claimed to have approved loans for Jackson at higher rates than other cities, allocating over $86 million since a 2012 consent decree with the EPA. MDEQ officials and a former employee highlighted significant loan proportions for Jackson's wastewater projects. The EPA did find procedural deficiencies in MDEQ's processes, but MDEQ argues it complies with federal laws. The NAACP still alleges discrimination against Jackson.
