They plan to plug the 10 inch hole prior to removing the water and fuel, and then to attempt to refloat the boat. The efforts began in the early hours on Thursday, and this day it could be removed for the spot where it ran aground, with the help of other vessels. The Harbor Master said there are several remedies that can be used to float this boat, so it can be taken to a repair site, and then return to its place of origin.

White Flag flying over North Beach after certification
Bandera blanca en la Playa Norte
Tras certificación
Lanrry PARRA
It was an historic moment on Thursday when the White Flag was hoisted over North Beach to certify it is a beach of high environmental quality. This designation was obtained after nine months of hard work by staff from different departments of the city, restaurant and hotel personnel, and volunteers to meet the stringent requirements of this certification. There were rigorous tests of water quality, coastal infrastructure, solid waste management, biodiversity, safety and services, environmental education, and noise pollution. The inspectors from the Instituto Mexicano de Normalización y Certificación A.C. (National Institute of Mexico of Standards and Certification) determined that North Beach met the criteria established in the law Norma Oficial Mexicana NMX-AA-120-SCFI-2006.

No one appointed as Director of Ecology yet
Comuna
Sigue sin titular la Dirección de Ecología0 14 de noviembre de 2014The Director of Ecology, Cristina Figueroa Medina, left office to lend transparency to the investigation by the City Comptroller into reports that staff had electrocuted a dog. This news went viral on social media and led to her resignation.
A cooperative agreement was signed by the City Government and the Municipal Citizens Council for Animal Welfare and Care was sworn in recently. No one has been appointed as Director of the municipal Ecology Department yet, and it is unknown who will take over the position.

Anabeth Villanueva, who has a store in Plaza Maya where they sell souvenirs, beachwear, silver, and other crafts, reports that sales have increased by 20%. She noted they expect high season to be good, because there are more people walking around on the island.
This increase is attributed to promotions done by the Governor, Roberto Borge Angulo. Other tourism service providers also report marked increases in business, mostly from foreign tourists. At the new Maritime Terminal you can see many visitors arriving with luggage, seeking a hotel, and the beaches also reflect the increase in tourism.

Isla Animals campaign for the upcoming November Clinic-Spay-Neuter-Educate
Sally Margolis on FB....
Sally Margolis on FB....
Hi everyone, I just posted a campaign for an Isla Animals
November Spay/Neuter & Education clinic. The only way to make
change is through education of pet
owners and particularly education of the children-and spay/neuter
campaigns. At the last big IA campaign 220 animals were spayed/neutered.
There will be an education station at this clinic and Isla Animals is
also set to go to the schools. Please continue to support an
organization that has made great strides with 15 years of steady service
to the island. And please, please help us share this campaign! Thank
you! "This is Lucky's campaign, let's make it everything it can be." -
