The Bahamas real estate development, Bimini Bay, has received the green light from the Bahamas government for phase 2A.
Bimini Bay has been the target of criticism by persons and groups concerned that the Bahamas real estate residential and resort complex was having a negative affect on the fragile mangrove and reef systems.
Phase 2A is subject to an environmental impact assessment, an environmental management plan, a town meeting and a published report, according to a statement released this week by the Bahamas Ministry of Environment.
The Bahamas Government contracted Black and Veatch to conduct an independent evaluation of the previously approved real estate development.
