Dear Editor,
Having learned about the magnitude of the dredging that is going on in Bimini, I wanted to write this short letter to you to inform you of my frustration and disappointment in regards to this matter.
I have been visiting Bimini for over 30 years, multiple times a year, and I have always enjoyed the quaint and humble character of this island as well as the pristine marine conditions that once existed there.
This dredging project is clearly having negative short and long term effects on the natural environment. These effects will not be reversed within my lifetime or even within the subsequent generations that will follow me.
I write to ask that this project be halted for the sake of the island, its inhabitants, and marine habitat that we treasure so much.
Please reconsider your approvals of this project and do what is right for Bimini by halting all further construction by Resorts World.
- Luis de la Vega
