Groundbreaking Assessment Reveals Groundwater's Impact on Saba's Marine Environment
A new assessment commissioned by the Public Entity Saba and conducted by Deltares details how groundwater acts as a primary pathway for land-based nutrients, particularly from cesspits, to reach Saba's coastal waters. The study highlights the threat these nutrients pose to vulnerable coral reefs and recommends enhanced monitoring and wastewater management to protect the island's unique marine ecosystems.
