Project Update
Archaeological discussions are continuing, and have caused a delay in the digging of trial pits in the leats. It is hoped to resolve these issues soon so that the work can commence during October.
A survey of the aquatic invertebrates in the Angiddy will be undertaken during October. Crayfish will also be surveyed.
The final survey requested by the various authorities is to check for the possible presence of water voles. It is hoped to complete this during October.
Water flow rates have remained high throughout September at more than 350 litres per second, well in excess of the minimum that will be needed to run the project.
