nuances? You are the Government!
Moving parts? what moving parts? GBIA is an airfield!
The owners have no interest or money to rebuild.
Neither do you, but put it under Resolve and link it to the RCL hotel deal.
They need it, as do the people of G.B.
By the time you get anywhere near to a decision it it will be overgrown with bush!

The Government prefers foreign consultants because they can ignore their findings.
The consultants couldn't care less as they were paid for their consultancy.
The Government will not consult with Bahamians because a Bahamian has a vested interest in their recommendations being implemented, thus can raise hell in public against the government for their inaction.
Add to the above the infinite way Bahamians have hidden special interests in ways no foreigner could ever figure out.
I hope those drones are water proof.

As to crash rescue, a few airboats on the lakes for a start, and two dedicated coastal bases for ocean going rescue craft.
But this is no different than the NEMA act for disaster response, in which the government possesses no heavy equipment, warehouses or materials handling skill or manpower aside what gets pulled from the defense force and police via cancelled vacations etc.
No foreign credit with foreign suppliers either.
So they write an act that allows for the "appropriation" of private assets, soon to be amended to "resources".
The failures, omissions and incompetencies are too numerous to count.

It is blatantly obvious these Idiots live in some alternate reality unsupported by their current (no pun intended) reality.
Generation is but one aspect of their failure: the other is transmission and distribution.
The Generation they put online to cope with demand, the more often their transmission will fail.
Simple stuff but obviously beyond their sense of rationale.
There are some pretty basic fundamentals of power distribution these guys pray are never brought up as well, a minimum of three in which they through their neglect have failed at.
It also seems they are taking the supposed regulator down the toilet with them, as they are unaware of these basics.

URCA = Fledging folly,
Government = the mother of all folly.
URCA does not have the wit or industry overview to set policy,
BEC /BPL = the inevitable failure resulting from folly.

Going against the tribalistic cabal of the day, or finding yourself the target of them is career ending stuff, with no place in our society, and yet people find themselves victimized far too often.

"That contract includes a new $750,000 imperial gallon tank in Treasure Cay and also $125,000 imperial gallon tank for Grand Cay"

Imperial Dollars or Imperial Gallons? Good grief.
If dollars how many gallons? If gallons how many dollars?

Funny how URCA can act as a typical Government agency regulator on a private radio station,
but roll over and play dead on BEC/BPL.
