Despite the clear need for identifying and developing alternative energy sources, the Ministry of District Administration, Works, Lands and Agriculture fully support the placement of the Doppler radar on part of the former Wilderness Farm in East End.
This site was identified by a team of experts from the Caribbean Meteorological Organisation as the most suitable for the optimal functioning of the radar. They looked at accessibility, power supply in the area, elevation and the fact that the site was inland, protected from sea spray.
