Lochcarron got back into the game, just before half time, through a well worked free hit which was finished well with Crisdean Finlayson finding the back of the Skye net.

CULTURAL INFLUENCES AND PERCEPTION page 31 Title Page Photographs, clockwise from top left: Beallach nam Ba, Pass of the Cattle, Applecross©NatureScot The view over Ullapool and Loch Broom from the road north. ©Lorne Gill/NatureScot Slioch ©Lorne Gill/NatureScot Rigs in the Cromarty Firth. ©Rachel Haines/NatureScot This document provides information on how the landscape of the local authority area has evolved. It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.

    Rhidorroch Estate Ullapool Wester Ross IV26 2UB Scotland Wester Ross Area Salmon Fishery Board c/o Wester Ross Fisheries Trust Office Harbour Centre Gairloch Ross-shire IV21 2BQ 27th April 2013 Dear WRASFB members and river owners in Wester Ross, Why the ‘Managing Interactions Aquaculture Project’ must be opposed Further to my letter dated 14 January 2013 detailing “Reasons for WRASFB to withdraw support for MIAP”, please find enclosed below further information in support of my proposal that that WRASFB withdraw immediately from the Managing Interactions Aquaculture Project (MIAP). Please consider the following a resolution to vote on during the WRASFB meeting on Tuesday (30 April): Resolved: That the WRASFB withdraw support from MIAP and write to RAFTS explaining the reasons for withdrawal In summary, WRASFB should withdraw support from MIAP for the following reasons: 1) Sea lice infestation is already killing wild fish in Wester Ross 2) MIAP ignores scientific research on sea lice impacts 3) MIAP is NOT supported by Scottish Natural Heritage, Lochaber Fisheries Trust or Lochaber District Salmon Fishery Board 4) Genetic pollution is already pushing wild salmon to the brink of extinction 5) ALL rivers in Wester Ross (and across Scotland) deserve protection 6) Lack of consultation and transparency 7) Sea lice resistance to chemicals and chemical pollution Based upon all the scientific evidence and sea lice data, the only logical policy is to advocate for a blanket ban on salmon farms across the West coast of Scotland. Rather than supporting MIAP (whose partners including RAFTS and ASFB “recognises the permanence and economic importance of the aquaculture industry to Scotland and the West Coast of Scotland in particular”), WRASFB should adopt a zero tolerance approach to open net cage salmon farming in Wester Ross.
