Montellano, Puerto Plata.– The Trust for the Economic and Social Development of the Punta Bergantín Area, in conjunction with the Provincial Directorate of the Ministry of Tourism, the Montellano City Council, and the Dominican Navy, carried out a cleanup operation on Punta Bergantín beach, with the goal of maintaining hygiene and environmental protection.
During the day, a community agreement was reached on the use of the beach during the 2025 Easter season, which established the posting of signs with messages such as "No littering" and "No loud music." In addition, the Central Directorate of the Tourist Police (POLITUR) pledged to increase patrols in the area.
The opportunity was also taken to request that the Montellano City Council schedule garbage truck visits at least twice a week to prevent the accumulation of waste.
These actions are part of the Punta Bergantín Trust's commitment to sustainable development and the preservation of the environment where the project is being carried out.
