Huge fish rescue bid as Chasewater drained
Express & Star 18 Mar 10
A major fish rescue operation will take place at Chasewater Reservoir next week before water levels sink dangerously low during draining, before essential dam safety work starts. Thousands of fish must be removed from the Chasewater Country Park site. Earlier this month contractors caught samples of fish to assess their health and experts have now deemed that their condition is “satisfactory.”
