Protecting and conserving Salmon and Sea Trout in the Forth District

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

The rivers around the Forth face many pressures which impact salmon, eels, otters and other wildlife. Some pressures also impact communities that live along our rivers too. Find out about these pressures and how we are tackling them in our feature film https://t.co/Eo7A35WcOH

Another one bites the dust - Westfield Weir Removed! The Trust through its consultancy arm has been working with a housing developer on the Logie Water, a trib of the River Avon in West Lothian to remove a 2.4 metre high weir. read more here- https://t.co/5KkZIruIog

Great to see @ScottishPower remove the Bluther Burn Weir as part of the decommissioning works of Longannet Power Station. Weir restricted salmon and sea trout movements in the catchment. This will help them recover.

Working to protect wild salmon is vital for Scotland's ecosystems. Pleased to see the launch of the Scottish Wild Salmon Strategy and look forward working with @marinescotland @scotgov @ScottishEPA @nature_scot to implement this making sure salmon are protected here in the Forth.

[Forth DSFB @ForthDSFB]

@ScottishEPA need to be transparent with their licensing and take inspiration from other agencies. CAR licensing is secretive, who would even know what was being licensed and where. A platform similar to Marine Scotland's or planning framework needed! @TerryAHearn @MairiMcAllan

[Scot Gov Marine @ScotGovMarine]

The latest marine licence applications and associated documents are now online: https://t.co/WFUWP8aG9R @EU_MARE @reNEWS_ @ScotRenew @MarineRenewNews @SP_NetZero @ScotGovNetZero #marinelicensing #renewables #marine

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

This doesn't come as a surprise with the many sewage related issues we help communities bring to light here in the Forth, but it does beg the question of whether @scottish_water are being adequately regulated by @ScottishEPA. Ambition needed to regulate but also tackle this issue

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

Yesterday, staff met with @EnvStanScot to showcase the work that both the Trust and @ForthDSFB do to protect and enhance rivers around the Forth. Good chat and discussion about issues rivers face in the Forth and where environmental law could be strengthened/used.

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

To mark the start of #cop26 we have dedicated our social channels to #climatechange over the next few days. First up, a blog on how the Trust is protecting the headwaters of the Teith and tackling climate change locally through our Teith catchment Project https://t.co/zRH0NRwdnb

[Forth DSFB @ForthDSFB]

We are delighted to be working with @CrownEstateScot to support and promote the #salmon #fishing in the Forth. Looking forward to increasing value incl social and environmental and unlocking the potential for greater access. #partnership #FutureForthFishing

[Crown Estate Scot @CrownEstateScot]

Today, we've published a suite of 20 new documents which give a deeper insight into how the assets in our care are being used, how they are delivering value - and how great their future potential might be.
