This “pond” just off Princess Juliana International Airport runway is choked with hurricane debris. The state of the pond is of concern to Beacon Hill residents who are worried about mosquitos breeding in the stagnant water, while particularly loose-lying sheets of zinc could potentially be blown onto the airstrip by strong winds and turbulence during take-off or landing. The catchment is also an unsightly mess for the highly-touristic area.
