BELAIR POND RESTORATION COMMENCES  
click
By Deanna Isaac, Carriacou Hillsborough, Carriacou, October 2nd, 2009- A pond, which once was a major source of water, is being restored to its primary use. For many years, the Belair Pond has been covered with lilies. However, that is about to change with a feverish effort to clean the pond by Benson Patrice and a team from the Forestry Division of the Ministry of Carriacou & Petite Martinique Affairs. When the cleaning is completed, the pond will be a main source of water supply, especially during the dry season. It will be utilised both for communal purposes, as well as for plant irrigation at the nearby Belair Nursery. Meanwhile, in keeping with government’s thrust to revitalize agriculture, lands on the outskirts of the nursery are being ploughed by agricultural workers. It’s part of a major agricultural drive which will include the planting of bananas and a variety of citrus.
