Wetlands Under Threat in Falmouth | Jamaica News

Jamaica Environment Trust is sounding the alarm over development permits issued for wetlands along Falmouth’s north coast road—areas officially zoned for conservation under a 2013 planning order. With five companies allegedly granted permits to build in protected zones, JET is demanding transparency from government agencies, asking for environmental assessments, mitigation plans, and any objections raised. As the government champions wetlands for climate resilience and national goals under Vision 2030, JET is questioning whether these permits contradict official commitments—and calling for accountability to protect Jamaica’s vital ecosystems.
