St. Maarten Private Eye

Back in mid August 2005 several letters were delivered to the Lt. Governor by foundations and Mercedes de Windt opposing the proposed Dolphinarium in which it was requested that he deny the permits for the project. Finally, after only 2 1/2 months they got a reply with an attached list of conditions for the Dolphinarium.

It is stated in the reply letter that no permits have yet been issued in regards to the project despite this report in the Daily Herald back on August 17th 2005. It would appear that both Atlantida and the Exco are having second thoughts about the planned location and rumors are that they are now considering pools onshore or perhaps a different location such as Dawn Beach or Simpson Bay. Recent reports that the construction had already started on the pens appear to be unfounded after this photo and story appeared in the Daily Herald this past week. (This is another interesting story which we will be looking into in the near future.)

Stay tuned for further news, comments and examination of this letter and the list of conditions from some professional sources in the near future.
