Deep Blue Marine (DPBE)

[RBV24]

I appreciate your commitment to saving our cultural heritage.
leaving artifacts in situ is not the answer, academic grants are not the answer,
but neither are the poorly regulated treasure hunting grants of the past.
Cultura is working with respected consultants to attempt to find a better more regulated way of
saving our lost patrimony. The days of splitting finds with commercial companies are a thing of the past. Commercial entities with a design on international cultural enrichment is the direction the Dominican Republic is heading. This is a mandate from the highest branch of our government and not the whim of Director Rodriquez.

Forget calling ONPCS, one phone call to Minesterio de Cultura will verify this.

Señora Lourdes and Senior Borell have not been affiliated with ONPCS for many years. Senior Borell has done many wonderful things to preserve our underwater heritage.
He is also very good friends with Senior Alejandro and any recommendation that may or may not have occurred did not come from Dominican Government.
Moreover the greater issue is DPB's repeated attempt to pass off an archeologist as a required marine archeologist as per the agreement of DPB lease.
DPB's miss representation to its investors on this issue is of no concern to us- except to further display the type of problems we wish to eliminate in the future.

Anyone is welcome to call the office of the Minesterio de Cultura and fact check the issue of salvage leases and most other information that is not deemed of a confidential nature.
Cultura maintains a very open source of information.
