Continued efforts in Lågåljusnan

The days before midsummer, the work resumed to restore the stretches in the long -out lights upstream of the end, Despite a heavily reduced budget compared to the plans. With the money the owners made available at the annual meeting, In total 260 000 SEK, are they enough for three weeks' work for two diggers including other costs.

At the same time, the search for other financiers is ongoing, including EU funds via the Swedish Agricultural Agency's rural program and there is some hope that they can come up with a larger amount. The prerequisite is that there is another public financier, e.g. the state or regional council, who can put up with at least 200 000 SEK. If not, it can be a contribution around 800 000 SEK, which would cover most of the total investment.

In order for fish and other aquatic organisms to have time to "move into" the renovated waters, a fishing ban has been introduced on the sections in question. This means that the entire stretch downstream of Saxvallsbron down to Rändhån has a fishing ban this year. The same applies to the distance approx 350 m downstream of the stream head at Orten up to and including the outlet in Skälningshån.

The continued negotiations with the county government and the Swedish Agency for Agriculture are expected to take another couple of weeks.
