Prosperity. There is only one slope at Vectren Fuels Inc.’s Prosperity mine, so there are only two stockpiles - one raw stockpile and one clean stockpile at this mine. Stockpiles at the Prosperity mine are measured using direct surveying methods, consisting of a total station and/or mobile/hand-held laser device. Areas of the stockpiles that can be safely and directly traversed, the base of each stockpile and those outside the influence of reclaim feeders, are measured directly with GPS units. Areas of the stockpiles outside these safe areas are measured with a hand-held laser.

Prosperity a focus on economy An Economy That Develops and Diversifies Economic diversification is a central aspect of the future of Sint Eustatius and drafting a strategic vision on economic development is essential in this. The island must further explore and develop sustainable, revenue-generating opportunities in a large variety of fields. For instance, Sint Eustatius has the potential to become a hub for heritage and nature research. In the realm of sustainability, Sint Eustatius can become pioneers, championing green energy (solar, geothermal), implementing advanced waste management systems, ensuring food security, increasing agricultural production (including fisheries) and harnessing the natural resources wisely. Another important aspect is promoting the business climate on Sint Eustatius and professionalizing the relevant stakeholders, such as the Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism Bureau. Banking services should be improved to facilitate local entrepreneurs that require loans to start their business. Next to this, the issues with double import tax should be looked at in the context of economic development. Sint Eustatius is exploring possibilities to generate government revenue by researching the possibilities of establishing an International Research Institute for Heritage in the center of Oranjestad, establishing a School of Medicine and the expansion of jet parking at the FDR airport. These institutions can potentially attract researchers, global professionals, including digital nomads and artists, further diversifying our economy. Endeavoring into (cultural) tourism development is another key element of our ambitions and plans should reflect our long-term goals. The growth of Sint Eustatius and its tourism sector should be sustainable so that Sint Eustatius remains able to carry all development the coming years infrastructurally and Sint Eustatius can still reap all benefits of developments. Other tools to generate government revenue are the taxes for all travelers coming through the harbor and the airport. By preserving, restoring, and showcasing our nature, history, and heritage, Sint Eustatius can become a must-visit destination. The island government will increase its efforts to put systems in place to further preserve and make accessible its unique natural and historical environment, both on land and in the surrounding sea. Additionally, the celebration of local culture fosters community spirit such as the 250-years celebration of Statia Day in 20...

Prosperity. Turkmenistan, as a country with rich natural resources the considerable part of which are the hydrocarbon reserves, develops its oil and gas sector. And one of the main directions is the establishment of new processing industries among which petro- and gas chemistry are the priority ones. The global climate action to reduce carbon emissions, may cause additional challenge to economic outlook of Turkmenistan unless it takes drastic measures to diversify the economy. This requires more space for private sector development, especially SMEs, a more conducive business environment and investment climate to attract domestic and foreign investment in non-extractive sectors, reduced currency exchange restrictions and regulations, and increased connectivity and trade. Agriculture remains the key economic sector that provides jobs to more than 40 percent of workforce in the country17, and will need more investment to increase value-added to the economy, strengthen resilience to climate change impacts and create more productive jobs for rural communities. Peace – Turkmenistan pursues "permanent neutrality" as the backbone of its foreign policy, that has provided admirable stability in the country. Yet, renewed efforts are needed to strengthen rule of law, regulatory quality, government effectiveness, and voice and accountability18. Xxxxxxx public administration reform and enhanced public financial management are needed, along with efforts to create more space for, and to catalyse the engagement of, civil society and the private sector. These changes, particularly for civil society engagement, are also instrumental to understanding and addressing the situation of vulnerable groups and for the implementation of the recommendations of the UN human rights treaty bodies and the ILO Supervisory Bodies. The ongoing risks of extremism and terrorism in Afghanistan can affect the Central Asia region, requiring strengthened measures for prevention, conflict resolution and building resilience especially for vulnerable young people. Partnerships - Turkmenistan has sufficient domestic resources to meet the SDGs by 2030, however, an increased efficiency in public spending, aligned with national SDGs priorities, is needed. Establishing a conducive business environment, extending partnerships with the international financial institutions and facilitating international trade will be crucial for mobilization and leveraging private capital and development funding sources to support the S...
