El Peregrino would have started last Saturday on foot from San Juan de la Maguana, after his journey from the southern part of the country, ending at the National Palace to ask President Luis Abinader to grant said permits. The man from San Juan said that environmental mining studies are important for the development of the province, since they would guarantee whether or not mining affects the water in that region. The State would comply with the law when authorizing the permits and if it determines that the project does not affect it, then new sources of employment that San Juan needs would be created. Otez Espinosa left from the Arc de Triomf in San Juan, passing through several provinces including Azua, Ban, San Cristbal until reaching Santo Domingo and arriving at the National Palace.
