  • Antrag Der Werke Werra Und Neuhof-Ellers Auf Eine Wasserrechtliche Erlaubnis Zur Einleitung Von Salzabwasser Aus Der Kaliproduktion in Die Werra
    Antrag der Werke Werra und Neuhof-Ellers auf eine wasserrechtliche Erlaubnis zur Einleitung von Salzabwasser aus der Kaliproduktion in die Werra Band 3.3 der Antragsunterlage Fischökologischer und fischereilicher Fachbeitrag Vorhabenträger in: K+S Minerals and Agriculture GmbH Werk Werra Hattorfer Straße 36269 Philippsthal / Werra Werk Neuhof-Ellers Am Kaliwerk 6 36119 Neuhof Gutachter: Jürgen Rommelmann, Dipl.-Biol., M.Sc. agr. c/o Büro LIMNA Wasser & Landschaft Rosdorfer Weg 14 37073 Göttingen Göttingen, im März 2020 Fachgutachten Fischökologie und Fischerei 3 Ergebnisse im Überblick: • Der vorliegende Fachbeitrag untersucht die Fragestellung, ob es durch die Einlei- tung von Salzabwasser aus der Kaliproduktion in die Werra zu einer Beeinflussung fischökologischer oder fischereilicher Belange kommt. • Aufgrund von Flussgebietsmodellierungen bis zum Ende der 3. Bewirtschaftungs- periode (2027) ist von einem Rückgang der Konzentrationen der Salzparameter Chlorid, Kalium und Magnesium und einer diesbezüglichen Entlastung für die aquatischen Organismen auszugehen. • Es sind keine Veränderungen gegenüber dem Istzustand in Bezug auf die fisch- ereilichen Erträge zu erwarten; natürliche Schwankungen können eintreten. • Die Anhang-II-Arten der FFH-Richtlinie Groppe (Cottus gobio), Bachneunauge (Lampetra planeri) und Bitterling (Rhodeus amarus) sind in ihren derzeitigen Beständen durch das Vorhaben nicht gefährdet. • Das Vorhaben steht deshalb, aus fischökologischer Sicht, auch den für diese Arten ausgewiesenen FFH-rechtlichen Erhaltungszielen nicht entgegen. • Ein statistischer Zusammenhang zwischen den Konzentrationen der Salzparameter (Chlorid, Kalium und Magnesium) und der ökologischen Zustandsbewertung im Rahmen des fischbasierten Bewertungssystems (fiBS) ist nicht nachweisbar. • Es ist davon auszugehen, dass die im Analysezeitraum relativ stabilen Arten- und Gildenzusammensetzungen bei den prognostizierten Rückgängen der Salzkon- zentrationen, weiterhin keinen grundlegenden Schwankungen unterworfen sein werden.
