Food Safety & Consumer Alerts: The VI Department of Licensing and Consumer Affairs says consumers should immediately stop using recalled scented Clorox Mistolin Dilutable Cleaners and Lestoil Heavy Duty Multi-Purpose Cleaners sold in Puerto Rico and the USVI, after a recall of about 6.3 million bottles over possible Pseudomonas aeruginosa contamination—an issue most dangerous for people with weakened immune systems or with external medical devices. Local Infrastructure: The Virgin Islands Recovery and Development Agency flagged root-caused damage along Road Town’s DeCastro Street, saying temporary fixes won’t solve the safety problem, and outlined wider, ADA-compliant sidewalk reconstruction planned for September. Climate Funding: Deputy Premier Julian Fraser launched the first call for proposals under the Virgin Islands Climate Change Trust Fund, with about $1 million available for community resilience projects from a fund holding just over $6 million. BVI Business & Finance: The BVI Financial Services Commission rolled out the FSC Robert A. Mathavious Scholarship Grant, offering up to US$5,000 for three applicants annually to pursue approved professional development at H. Lavity Stoutt Community College. Regional Security & Trade Risks: Trinidad and Tobago police seized 416.5 kg of cocaine worth about US$193.5 million hidden in backhoe tyres, arresting a 42-year-old businessman from the British Virgin Islands and two St. Lucians—another reminder of how illicit trade can intersect with legitimate commerce. Governance & Compliance: Guidance from DLCA says pennies remain legal tender in the USVI and businesses can’t routinely refuse cash or round up transactions just because one-cent coins are scarce.
