A mission to the Dominican Republic, sponsored by the Organization of American States, comprised 23 experts in areas of interest to the Country and addressed efforts to generate employment in the Dominican economy. In the energy sector, the mission recommended projects to create energy farms and to encourage industrial energy conservation, as well as a number of smaller projects. Small-scale mining of gold, lignite, and rock salt and the expansion of the semiprecious gem industry were among the recommendations made for the mining sector.
