Puerto Brisa isn't expected to begin operation until late 2012

摘要

Native Indians in Colombia's La Guajira department believe the development of Puerto Brisa will destroy ancestral sacred places, and render irreparable damage to their culture. "The Indians aren't against economic growth or bringing new jobs to the area," a source told Coal Americas. "They are worried about what will happen to the environment in the area, how sacred grounds and fishing areas will be affected by the development of the port."
