March 27, 2025 – Abaco | The waves of strong winds and waves of corn, Fowl Cays threw a tugboat and barge to the fine corals of the National Park. Despite many attempts to release ships, they remain in danger for the future of rusty eyes and the future. Do you want to know nonprofit organizations and non-profit coalitions led by local, diving operators and marine sciences (PIMS) Perry Institute: Why not resettled?
David Knowles, the Bahamas National Guven (BNT), Control All National Parks in Abaco (BNT), clearly reminds Knotted and barje fluttered in the rif. “It’s the same story we see again and again,“He says.”The weather is changing, a channel is incorrect and suddenly a boat is above the reef. But how unique here is how unique. ” BNT, who managed the National Park, which is a national park, which has a national park, has a prompt announcement after the Location, which has a National Park, which has a national park, called for immediate removal to prevent the ship further damage.
The barge loaded with the construction supply connected for a development in Abaco, diving and boaters, diverse dangers with the seabed spaces and leaks.
Last year, officials and rescue teams tried to reflect the spot without success in four separate cases. During these attempts, the turkey rigidity is repeatedly to a part of the reign, the corals below and make the sand.
The frustration part is caused by a simple question: Who should pay to correct it? According to the BAHAMYAN law, the owner is legally responsible for the salvation, the environment and the safe removal of any cargo. But in practice, these places often become bureaucratic tangled.
“Fingers are easy to point to the assignments” Denise Mizell, Abaco Program Director for PIMs that make up great cleaning efforts on the site since the day “But they can only do more than partnerships and financing the owner’s insurance. Meanwhile, the crescent continues to crush and these waters are weak.”

Orientation of vision covers educational programs in their work coral rocks and mangroves, sustainable fishing research and the Bahamas. Cooperation with local communities, PIMS helps to create sustainable job opportunities in the ocean protection, support environmental management and family livelihoods. The BAHAM Islands National Guven (BNT), BMMRO, National Guest (BMMRO), local dive shops and volunteers, pims, deductions, pims, the bottoms of the Bahamas, Pims, the Bands, the BMMRO) have made efforts to remove the riffle damage. According to divers in these missions, the carpenter of the barge was spilled from the cargo, and overcoming rock production corals and smoothing the fragile residents. Divers collected rope, wooden, wrapped metal and other garbage, sometimes a mixed with firefighters, graphic books and plastic light covers that were mixed with broken Elkhorn corals. Although Nature’s (IUCN) is classified by the international community, Elkhorn Coral is one of the most important rock buildings in the Caribbean.
For many bahama, this image is cut into the heart of the issue. The country’s famous coral rocks, especially the branches of fish, especially the branch, which was drawn with disease, hurricanes and pollution. Tourists come to Snorkel from all over the world and dive here, and do not pour hundreds of millions of dollars into the local economy. Meanwhile, a single ground can destroy the growth of coral growth and violate the ecosystem that supports tourism and contributes to nearby fishing. Storms, tug and barge change, re-opening the reef. Ropes snag, drags anchor chains and once shattered under the weight of the metal, changing live coral heads.
“To see such negligence, intestine gut” Dive Guana Troy says Alburgury. Guana Cay Reef and Guana as the president of the Fire and Rescue, this soon wears a lot of hats in a society. Albury is regularly heading underwater tours and followed the trapped barge from creeping barge to neighboring diving sites. “People are a threat to everything you love to love abaco-fish, even tourism work. Every week visitors, ‘Why are there a barge on the reef?’ And I don’t have a good answer. “
The government has strong tools on paper. International conventions such as the Nairobi International Convention on the Ecological Planning and Protection Act of 2019 and the withdrawal of the side lines of international conventions should face the rubble and strict penalties. The port department can relate to other institutions to remove the ship, and in some cases, and delete the owner of the ship and remove the owner and remove the bill.
Olivia Patterson-Maura, Director of Friends of Environmental Friends – Environmental Education and Protection Programs are a well-known staple in the Abaco Society, the continuous solutions require government and special stakeholders together. “Everyone wants to protect the Refs of the Bahamas, local communities and government agencies “ Says. “Really want to work on practical steps that really come out of the park and restore the area, but we need us
more than non-profit organizations to step up to the plate. This is a national treasure and is in all our interests to remove it before more damage occurs. “
DUG and Barge, the Ref rescue network, about half a mile from a coral babies – Pims and local partners, the joint restoration efforts of Pims and Staghorn Coral have grown in the hopes of placement of the fragments and endangered rifles. Each time the storms encourage closed vessels, divers flowing the sea from the sea is more breaking.
“Every time it changes in heavy swellings, it breaks more of the rock and we will find the cutting coral colonies, semi-buried and fresh rubble. Dr. Charlotte Dunn, President of the Volunteer Diving and Bahamas Naval Mammal Research Organization, Non-profit dedicated to the long-term field research of marine mammals in the Bahamas.
In front of variable winds and unreliable actors, the community members are stepping. Residents who trust in these waters for fishing, diving and tourism, visible progress is always anxiously waiting for innovations that will eventually occur. Little doubts about the complexity of large-scale rescue work. Again, is this place where the coral rocks can prolong a year from tourism revenues and storms and extend a year of storms from storms?
Mizell and its volunteer teams, gloves, mesh bags and plans to return to the penitentiary in connection with the appointment of gloves and determination to collect new debris. Each dive can eliminate only part of the junk, but these waters are worth saving every fragment for lovers. When asked why they continue to work such a growing, Mizell’s response is simple: “We do this because we all care about the situation of our ocean. Can’t wait for the reel. “
