Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate, Environment and Energy

Fish Kill in the River Blackwater: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Sean Long:

I might come back to the Deputy on that question. The environmental officer concerned took the call about the report in the Macroom office. He was with me at the time. He immediately proceeded to Mallow, which is just over an hour's drive. He was there in about an hour and a quarter from the time the call came in. En route, he stopped at two locations upstream, as he was working his way down towards Mallow, which is where the fish kill had been reported, at Mallow Bridge. That was his primary destination.
