The Environmental Management Authority (EMA) has defended the Certificate of Environmental Clearance (CEC) issued for a hotel development project in Tobago, which followed a review process under the Environmental Management Act and the CEC Rules.
It comes after Rocky Point Foundation founder, Duane Kenny, and residents from the area raised concerns about possible environmental harm to the area with the building of a new hotel.
In a media release on Monday, the EMA said the approval identified as CEC6451/2022 involved technical analysis, consultations with agencies, submissions from stakeholders and a review by a committee made up of agencies and non-governmental organisations.
