Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) recently carried out a survey of the part of the river referred to.  The survey showed that there was no blockage of fish passage and it is unlikely that in-stream works will be required. IFI responded to the correspondence on 13 April, to communicate the survey outcome and to advise in relation to potential works that the landowner might undertake after consultation with the appropriate bodies. IFI also provided information regarding a potential funding mechanism and environmental screening requirements.
