List of Acronyms 37 - 3 - Executive Summary A Financial There have been numerous challenges facing the SCF during the first half of 2011. On July 7th, the independent auditors, Ernest & Young, submitted the financial statements for 2010. Although there was a notable performance improvement over 2009, the impairment of the hyperbaric chamber impacted negatively on the overall result as outlined on the balance sheet for 2010. The internally circulated profit & loss sheet for the first half of 2011 is also not indicating much progress. However, the current cash flow problem is a consequence of overdue receivables, because in some cases the nature and dive fees are still outstanding for 2010. Therefore, the present statement is not reflecting the final income generation of the foundation for these months. Hence, it is recommended that a late fee system, as provided for in the Marine Environment Ordinance A.B. 1987, number 10, article 13, paragraph 5, be implemented. There should also be incentives for businesses submitting their fees before the 10th of the following month. There are further issues with regards to super yacht agents supposedly collecting the nature fees for the SCF (fees for Motor Yacht A of Hamilton Yachts LTD, Bermuda, on 16th January 2011 and Mirabella V of Southampton, UK, on April 21st, 2011 have not yet been received). Additionally, although treated as cash, it takes about a month for foreign checks received to clear, which also impedes on the SCF cash flow. Thus, it has to be decided if the SCF should continue to accept foreign checks. On June 13th, the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sent a letter to the Friends of the Saba Conservation Foundation (FSCF), notifying that the organization’s (501)(C) (3) tax-exempt status has been revoked automatically, because it hasn’t filed for 3 years. We intend to reapply for the tax-exempt status, but means need to be found to revive the FSCF and find a new representative in the United Sates. B Staffing Numerous staff shortages during the past year affected the operations of the foundation. Besides Sue Hurrell’s approved prolonged leave of absence from December 20th, 2010 to March 25th, 2011, there were a number of family emergencies requiring staff to accompany their relatives for medical treatment overseas for several weeks (e.g. Gia Robinson, May 30th to June 12th). With permission from the Lieutenant Governor, James Johnson was sent to Colombia on July 5th, to assist his wife’s sister during surgery and recovery and has up to now not returned. On August 8th, the SCF received a doctor’s note from the Island Government’s Personnel Office, informing that Mr. Johnson’s leave has been sanctioned with full compensation. This situation is unacceptable and has serious consequences on the capacity and functioning of the SCF in fulfilling its mandate. Other staff have to take on the responsibilities of the trail ranger, e.g. supervising community work and guiding hikes, creating a void in their usual scope of work. The issue is being exacerbated due to outstanding compensation for 25 workdays owed to Mr. Johnson for supervising convicts, assigned by the Public Prosecutor to do community work on weekends. - 4 - Mr. Johnson applied for retirement when reaching 60 years of age on August 24th. The Island Government approved the request, but the pension is not deemed adequate, thus Mr. Johnson asked to continue working until the age of 65. It was agreed that Mr. Johnson will be working as an employee of the SCF and his salary is going to be subsidized by the Island Government, as of September 1st. Furthermore, the deceased trail cleaner Robbert Newnam has not been replaced yet, hence some of the prominent trails under the auspices of the SCF are in dire need of maintenance. The trails serviced by Mr. Newnam were advertised locally and 2 bids have been received for evaluation and approval by the Board. All other trail cleaning contracts were renewed on April 4th, although there has not been any response by the Island Government with regards to the request for a compensation increase. Generally, due to sharply increased living costs on Saba, there is need to review the salaries of all staff, especially the Ranger positions. Since Mrs. Evette Peterson’s resignation as trail Shop Administrator in October of 2010, the position has not been filled. However, a staff rotation system has proven workable, maintaining the usual opening hours, with assistance of interns and volunteers, who have been assigned to the Trail Shop. The savings from the elimination of that position could be utilized for a modest salary increase for the rangers, pending performance appraisals. C Infrastructure C.1 Marine The moorings in the marine park have been maintained regularly, but anchors are still missing at Abraham’s Hole (David’s Drop Off red), Cove Bay and the barrels at Diamond Rock (red) have to be replaced. It has been difficult to rely on the assistance of volunteers in installing new mooring anchors, because of their lack of experience and routine, it puts other divers and themselves at risk. A parks exchange for the drilling of moorings as conducted in November of 2010 with the Nature Foundation on St. Maarten is more feasible, but has to be planned well in advance and requires outside funding. - 5 - New Dock & Ramp at Fort Bay Attempts were made with the large 1-ton lift bags owned by the foundation and the assistance of Caribbean Explorer to relocate the old barrels, but the system is outdated and doesn’t hold larger vessels anymore, which are dragging the barrels across the sea floor. The Island Government promised assistance in placing new cement blocks, but the project has not been forthcoming up to now. The SCF patrol vessel “Lady Rebecca” has been serviced every 100 running hours and is in good condition, except some electrical design problems (failing cable connection of switches through the inaccessible hull of the boat to the engines, leaking engine mount seals and corroded zinc bolts). The starboard side engine cover was damaged by a former employee of Sea Saba during a docking maneuver, but hasn’t been replaced or fixed yet. The cover of the engine suffered minor damage and a replacement is not of any urgency. The new dock at Fort Bay harbor, which was inaugurated on July 26th, utilizing the SCF patrol boat for a first test for the new ramp, is ideal for our purposes. The tourist office received an email from Mr. Richard van der Kraan, offering assistance in acquiring an Dutch Navy vessel to be sunk as a wreck in Saban waters. Mr. van der Kraan, stated that the Dutch Ministry of Defense (MoD) has to cut down expenses in the total amount of 1 billion Euros. According to the plans of the MoD, they are decommissioning planes, tanks and ships. Among the ships there is a large old supply vessel called “Zuiderkruis”. HNLMS Zuiderkruis Because Mr. van der Kraan works for the MoD, he already contacted the department responsible for disposing the Zuiderkruis and he found out that at this moment there are no plans for the Zuiderkruis. The specs of the vessel are as follows: Class and type: Auxiliary Replenishment Ship Displacement: 16,900 tons Length: 170 m Beam: 20 m Speed: 21 knots Complement: 170-190 (persons) - 6 - The SCF sent a letter of support for the project to the tourist office on July 7th.

    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2003 ISSN 1524-4776 Plum Piece Evidence for Archaic Seasonal Occupation on Saba, Northern Lesser Antilles around 3300 BP Corinne L. Hofman Menno L.P. Hoogland Recent investigations on the island of Saba, northern Lesser Antilles, revealed evidence of preceramic occupation in the northwestern part of the island at an elevation of approxinately 400 m above sea level. The inland location of dense midden deposits in a tropical forest environment makes the Plum Piece site unique for studying the preceramic occupation of the Antilles, a period that is otherwise mainly known from coastal settings. The recovered artifacts and the radiocarbon dates support an attribution to the Archaic period of the preceramic Age. The nature of the tools and the restricted number of exploited food sources suggest a temporary, probably seasonal, occupation of the site for a unique activity. _____________________________________ Archaeological investigations on the island coastal exploitation in which shellfish of Saba, northern Lesser Antilles (Figure 1) predominates.

Title: “Better than we”: landscapes and materialities of race, class, and gender in pre- emancipation colonial Saba, Dutch Caribbean Issue Date: 2017-02-09 Page | 47 Chapter 4: Saba in the Documentary Record This chapter outlines the processes involved in documentary research, and outlines the colonial history of Saba, from first sightings by Europeans to the early twentieth century, with the abandonment of Middle Island and Palmetto Point. A significant proportion of the history recounted herein is derived from original archival and historical newspaper research by the author, which is indicated by references to archive locations and their indexes that do not include an adjoining secondary source reference. In particular, it focuses on the oral and documentary history concerning free and enslaved Sabans of African descent. This includes the first arrival of enslaved Africans to the island, the rise and fall of the plantation economy, the emergence of free Sabans of African descent, laws pertaining to the institution of slavery, emancipation as it occurred on Saba in 1863, and its aftermath. The sources and their history A wide variety of sources were employed throughout this research in several collections worldwide. The most important sources for seventeenth and eighteenth colonial documents have been the Calendar of State Papers through the British National Archives (herein abbreviated to the BNAr), and the Dutch National Archives in The Hague (herein abbreviated to DNAr).

    Fort Bay, 4 August 2017 The Executive Council Saba Island Government Power Street 1 The Bottom Re.: Addressing urgent threats to Saba’s Trail Network Dear honorable Council Members, Saba’s historic trail network is a major attraction for our tourism industry. Because of the continuous upkeep and restoration efforts by the SCF in the past decades, the island has become a renown hiking destination and attracts tourists from all over the world. They appreciate the island’s unspoiled nature, serenity and breathtaking vistas, as a haven away from the hustle and bustle of urban society. Hiking and other nature related activities, like birdwatching, are steadily inclining, but still have not reached their full potential. Consequently, Saba’s prosperity and economy, now and in the future, are highly depend on the conservation of its unique, but very fragile marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Nonetheless, recently the integrity of the trail network has been seriously compromised. There have been numerous development activities, with no regards to Saba’s cultural heritage and nature, giving us no choice, but to close certain trails. 1.

  • 1 Assessment of the Commercial Fishery of Saba Bank Wes Toller
    Assessment of the Commercial Fishery of Saba Bank Wes Toller and Shelley Lundvall Saba Conservation Foundation Saba, Netherlands Antilles February 29, 2008 Executive Summary The commercial fishery of Saba Bank, Netherlands Antilles, was assessed for six months from June 1 through November 30, 2007, by conducting port sampling interviews with Saban commercial fishermen to obtain information on fishing effort, gear usage, landings and species composition of catches. Results from our survey are compared to previous studies to provide an updated assessment of the Saba Bank commercial fishery. The fishery can be summarized as follows. A small fishing fleet of approximately ten vessels operates from Fort Bay, Saba Island, and conducts small-scale commercial fishing on Saba Bank. Saban commercial fishermen may participate in either or both of two distinct types of fisheries: a lobster trap fishery and a “redfish” trap fishery. The two trap fisheries account for almost all commercial landings while other fishing methods (e.g. hook & line) make only a minor contribution to total landings from Saba Bank. Specific patterns of effort, landings and catch composition are identified within each trap fishery. Lobster trap fishing is the more prevalent and economically significant Saba Bank fishery. Lobster catch rate is 0.84 lobster per trap-haul and 184 pounds per trip. Catch rates vary significantly with season. Projected annual lobster landings are 184,000 lbs (83.6 mt) with an ex- vessel value of US $1.3 million per year. The lobster trap fishery also harvests a diversity of “mixed fish” (shallow water reef fishes). Average catch rate of mixed fish is 0.5 pounds per trap- haul and 37.8 pounds per trip, with projected annual mixed fish landings of 37,700 pounds (17.1 mt) at an ex-vessel value of US $68,700 per year.

To measure these characteristics, two 350 m long arrays consisting of primary a high-resolution temperature T-sensor string and secondary an acoustic Doppler current profiler were moored around 500 m water depth at the northern and southern flanks of Saba Bank for 23 days. We observed that the surrounding density stratified waters supported large internal tides and episodically large turbulent exchange in up to 50 m tall overturns. However, an inertial subrange was observed at frequencies/wavenumbers smaller than the mean buoyancy scales but not at larger than buoyancy scales, while near-bottom non-linear turbulent bores were absent. The latter reflect more open-ocean than steep sloping topography internal wave turbulence.
