The Presidency reports that the Canadian consulting company Lemay presented its master plan for the sustainable development in southwestern Pedernales. Local authorities want to build a sustainable development model with a focus on the Bahia de las Aguilas beach natural attraction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A government has created the Pedernales Trust Committee to oversee the development of the tourism potential of the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meeting, Presidency Minister Gustavo Montalvo spoke favorably of developing ecotourism and nature circuits to attract active, adventurous and high standard tourists with higher spending per day capacity. Montalvo said this model focuses on ecological and cultural experiences and creates greater linkages with the community. He explained the circuits would take the tourists to visit natural attractions such as Bah\u00eda de las Aguilas, Laguna de Oviedo and Hoyo de Pelempito. \u201cWhat we are looking for is to value the opportunities that exist, given the nature of Caribbean beaches, the wide biodiversity and the different microclimates of the area,\u201d said Montalvo during the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development plan includes the construction of roads, renewable electricity generation parks and the provision of basic services in some areas to promote circuit-based tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those present discussed strategies for promoting the destination to potential international investors specializing in this type of tourism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gustavo Montalvo said the community of Pedernales, social and environmental groups in the province, as well as the country’s leading technicians in tourism, environment and public works participated in the drafting of the master plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to Montalvo, others participating in the meeting were President Danilo Medina, Tourism Minister Francisco Javier Garcia, Hacienda Minister Donald Guerrero, Economy Minister Juan Ariel Jimenez, and Environment Minister Angel Estevez. Also, the administrator of the Banco de Reservas, Sim\u00f3n Lizardo M\u00e9zquita; Vice Minister of Public Works, Ram\u00f3n Pep\u00edn; Ren\u00e9 Hubert, from the Lemay group; Dominican architect Franc Ortega, architect; Dominican landscape architect Juan Diego V\u00e1squez, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
