A review conducted in July 2006 by the independent corporation of Black & Veatch reveals that construction of the Albany project could have significant impacts on the coastal resources and the marine environment. It also claims that Albany EIA did not comply fully with the guidelines set by The Bahamas Environment, Science & Technology Commission (B.E.S.T) or meet industry standards.
The report states that the "construction of the project will have significant impacts on coastal resources" and "construction and operation of the marina, jetties, and access channel and construction of other project components near the beach have the potential to cause adverse impacts to the marine environment."
