JACO & HERMOSA REPRESENTATIVES RECEIVE BLUE FLAG. For the second consecutive
year, the city of Jaco recently received the Blue Flag award along with the
surfing beach of Playa Hermosa, the site of the BILLABONG ISA 2009 WORLD
SURFING GAMES. In order to receive the Blue Flag award, the quality of
water, the solid waste management systems, the signaling of roads, the
environmental education and public safety are all evaluated. The city
council, local businesses and members of the community all worked together
to ensure that the requirements were met and that Jaco was able to renew
their accreditation. Sonia Alvarado, the President of the Blue Flag
Committee in Jaco and Peter Van Hussen, Vice President of the Chamber of
Commerce attended the awards ceremony at the offices of the Institute of
Aqueducts and Sewage Authority (AyA) in Pavas on March 24th. The mayor of
Garabito, don Marvin Elizondo said "We received the news with great
satisfaction reinforcing the hard work that has been going in Jaco in
preparation for the World Surfing Games. For more information about the Blue
