ENVIRONMENT: The Collectivity is stepping up its efforts to collect Sargassum

0

After a visit to the Cul-De-Sac site last Tuesday, Louis Mussington, president of the Collectivity, went to the site again this Wednesday morning to discuss with the workers of Koole Contractors, a company requisitioned to help the company Janky Environnement and GTM in collecting sargassum and cleaning the pier area.

Considering that Sargassum presents both a danger to human health and paralyzes an economic sector linked to tourism, noting the increase in hydrogen sulphide levels noted by the Regional Health Agency (ARS) in Cul-De-Sac and the alert messages issued in anticipation of massive groundings in the coming days, Louis Mussington, president of the Collectivity, has decided to call on the company Koole Contractors to lend a hand to the company Janky Environnement and GTM in the collection of sargassum in Cul-de-Sac Bay. Fabien Sésé, Secretary General of the Prefecture of Saint-Barthélemy and Saint-Martin, was also present, lending his support to the initiative taken by the Collectivity. The President's order taken in an emergency situation was signed on site this Wednesday, July 27 at 9 a.m. for all parties. About ten days are planned for the operation in question with a daily budget of €2.750. Thanks to the specialized mechanical equipment owned by Koole Contractors, the collaboration between the latter and Janky Environnement will make it possible to collect sargassum stranded or floating in the Baie de Cul-De-Sac, a real recurring scourge. Florian Mioni, environmental engineer at DEAL SXM explains to us that Janky will take care of the spreading by collecting the sargassum with sand. As for Koole Contractors, the workers will remove the floating sargassum directly in the water using a skeleton bucket in order to lose less ground, sargassum which will be taken directly to the dump.
