THE SUSTAINABLE GRENADINES PROJECT - The University of ...

Assessment of the beach changes at L’Ansecoy Bay since 199. Recommendations were made to mitigate the erosion such
as the construction of a seawall, vegetation at the sand dune in front of Jacaranda, Ultramarine and Palm Beach., gabions at
the dune edge should be removed repairing the gabion.

under a number of heading.: waste generation and minimization, collection of shore generated waste, disposal of shore
generated waste, reuse, recycling and composting, management of ship-generated wastes, management of special wastes,
institutional, training, education and legislative proposals, regional roles, privatization and implementation, program costs
and cost recovery.
Capital Environmental and Engineering Inc. 1991. Mustique hydrology study. Report prepared for Mustique
Company. 12pp.
A hydrological study conducted to determine the most reliable and cost-effective method to provide fresh water on the
island of Mustique. The field investigation revealed that the island has a high fresh water aquifer and that 20% of the water
could be recovered with a properly designed well system. Drilling of test wells and a pumping test are recommended to
confirm the aquifer location and yield and to provide data from which the well system may be designed, strategic placement
of reservoirs is recommended in order to increase the amount of water entering the aquifer to slow runoff and allow more
water to percolate.
Caribbean Conservation Association. 1991a. Country environmental profile: Grenada. U.S. Agency for
International Development. Barbados. 276 pp.
This work was published in 1991 under the aegis of the Caribbean Conservation Association. It begins with a description of
the natural environment and then places this in a socio-economic context. Forest and Wildlife, Agriculture and Watersheds
Freshwater Resources and coastal and marine resources are examined. The areas of energy, transportation and industry,
tourism, pollution and environmental health and growth management follow. All these are approached by looking at an
overview, problem and policy, and recommendations. The profile concludes with an institutional framework for
environmental management. It gives reference to the mangroves in Carriacou and fisheries resources in Carriacou and Petit
Martinique-with information on fish landings in Carriacou from 1984-1988. In section 10 which examines the national park
and protected area, a map of the various habitats and the park are shown for Carriacou.

This study, as well as Jackson et al. (1986) make a variety of references to mangroves, particularly those in Ashton Bay,
and indicate the need to protect them. It also includes some information on the distribution of wetlands. These are based
