UNDP donates lobster traps
In other maritime news, Belize’s lobstermen stand to benefit from the generosity of the United Nations. Under the plan presented by the Coastal Zone Management Authority and Institute, the UNDP will provide one thousand two hundred and fifty lobster traps to at least partially replace those lost as a result of Hurricane Keith. The traps, worth ninety-eight thousand dollars, will be distributed under the supervision of a committee, which includes the CZMAI, government and the fishing co-operatives.
