Members of the opposition, toured sections of the Dry Harbour Mountains in St. Ann on Monday. A permit was given to a private developer to quarry the mountains. However, Mark Golding says there is still time to preserve this unique area of Jamaica.
They say the forest of the Dry Harbour Mountains have been untouched for thousands of years. The thriving fauna creates a sanctuary for birds and features endemic species of plant but also is rich with limestone. 500 acres of the Dry Harbour Mountains may be mined for limestone by Bengal Development Limited. Shadow Minister of Land, Environment & Climate Change Sophia Fraser Binns says there is still time for the government to reconsider granting a mining permit. Fraser Binns is inviting Prime Minister Andrew Holness to visit the area.
Opposition Leader Mark Golding suggests investing in dry harbor’s Eco-Tourism features as an economic alternative.
