Members of the local section of the B.G.-Brazil Boundary Commission is now in its third field season and are working on the most interesting part of the hinterland.
Their principal objective is finding the source of the Essequebo River as the boundary with Brazil is formed by the hydrographic divide between the Essequebo and the Trombetas Rivers.
The Trombetas is an affluent of the Amazon.
