Saint Martin at the heart of a strategic document
On November 5, the Réserve hosted a technical atelier in its offices, which was led by the French Agency for Biodiversity (AFB), the local representative of the Direction de la Mer and its local agent, ImpacMer. The idea was to collect the necessary elements to edit a strategic document for the maritime zone of the French West Indies, including Saint Martin. The Saint Martin port authority was present, alongside the Direction de la Mer, DEAL, the Collectivity of Saint Martin, and Métimer, the association of nautical professionals. The challenge was to define the existing uses and pressures put on the zone and localize them. The extension of the Port of Galisbay, maritime traffic, and leisure activities at sea, the marinas, and industrial activities were among the subjects on the agenda. The AFB will coordinate the editing of a recap of these discussions, which will then be submitted to the participants.
