Wetlands Under Threat in Falmouth | Jamaica News

from Jamaica News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

JET is sounding the alarm over six wetland removal permits issued in Falmouth—despite areas being officially zoned for conservation under Jamaica’s 2013 Trelawny Parish Development Order. As the government publicly champions wetlands for climate resilience and water security, especially after Hurricane Melissa, JET questions why permits are still being granted. They’re demanding transparency from NEPA, seeking environmental studies, zoning details, and copies of the permits themselves—highlighting a troubling disconnect between policy talk and on-the-ground action. This isn’t just about land use—it’s about whether Jamaica’s future is truly being protected. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
