Thank you, Tribune, for continuing to shed light on the ongoing campaign to make the Bimini MPA a finalized reality. For anyone intersted in more information, please see the Facebook group page called Bimini's Marine Protected Area Campaign (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/Bi...">http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/Bi...).

At no point in the development of Bimini Bay has what's best for the natural environment that serves as the foundation of Bimini's tourism been taken into consideration. I lived in Bimini for several years and documented many abuses. Even the developer's own contractor hired to do a project assessment at the previous government's request found egregious violations, including the inability to show permits for most of their dredge and fill activities. The Genting Group is at the center of a similar mockery of what the people of Miami want for their waterfront. If the Government of the Bahamas REALLY has its peoples best interests in mind, it should LISTEN to them. Dozens and dozens of emails from Biminites and beyond have been sent directly to members of government through the Bimini Blue Coalition, pleading for the finalization of the long-promised North Bimini Marine Reserve and the end to Bimini Bay's unsustainable development. LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE!
