River Surveys to Start - DNG Online Limited
- The Nith Catchment Fishery Trust will soon begin survey work along the River Nith as part of the Whitesands Flood Protection Scheme.
- This survey follows planning for environmental monitoring during the flood scheme, with some uncertainty about specific survey methods used.
- Survey efforts may involve using electrofishing to assess juvenile salmon and lamprey populations, collecting samples of aquatic invertebrates through kick sampling, and surveying for organisms such as freshwater pearl mussels, crayfish, water voles, and invasive plant species.

- These surveys could improve ecological knowledge for the flood scheme and assist controlling harmful invasive species in the River Nith area.
