THE NATIONAL CONSERVATION Commission (NCC) is continuing its battle against the sargassum seaweed.
At Skeete’s Bay, St Philip today, an excavator was loading truckloads of the weed, which the NATION understands was being taken to either NCC headquarters or Sustainable Barbados Recycling Centre for processing.
One member of the work crew said he estimated more than ten loads of seaweed was on the beach.
The work, which started yesterday, drew a few curious onlookers. However, despite the effort, more of the seaweed was relentlessly being deposited along the shore. (CA)
