The Jamaica Environment Trust, JET, is again calling on the government to take urgent action to put an end to fish kills at the Rio Cobre, in St. Catherine. 

The call follows a fish kill at the river, on Saturday. 

There have been several other incidents of fish kills at the Rio Cobre in recent years.

In a release this morning, JET called for the government to provide clear and transparent updates on its investigation into fish kills at the river and outline concrete steps to prevent further pollution of this vital waterway.

Chief Executive Officer Dr. Theresa Rodriguez Moodie also called on the government to enhance monitoring of the Rio Cobre by establishing a real-time water quality monitoring system.

JET said this continuous environmental disaster raises serious questions about the effectiveness of pollution prevention measures and accountability for those responsible.
