The Dominican Port Authority (Apordom) announced yesterday that it was lifting the embargo against power generation and shipping companies on condition that they pay for leasing space in port areas in the future. El Caribe quotes Apordom Public relations director Alicia Custals, as saying that the embargo would be lifted. The embargo affected Ege Haina and Seaboard. Zaida Lugo Lovaton, executive director of the Dominican Association of Electric Industry said that the companies had not reached an agreement with Apordom. She said that this year they received bills totaling millions of pesos from Apordom for the use of port areas by electricity barges. In a press release, Apordom says that on Tuesday, AES-Andres and Itabo power plants made payments of almost RD$20 million and the Dominican Association of Shippers agreed to pay balances on its debts from 2007, 2008 and 2009.
