The aims of the assessment are to determine the degree of compliance of the Loch Torridon Nephrops Creel Fishery with the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Principles and Criteria, as set out in Section 5. 1.1 The fishery proposed for certification is: Species: Nephrops norvegicus Common names: Langoustine, Dublin Bay prawn, Norway lobster Geographical area: Loch Torridon & Inner Sound of Rona, *'Closed Area', Ross-shire, North West Coast of Scotland, United Kingdom within International Council for the Exploration of the Seas (ICES) Area: VIa, Management Area C, Functional Unit 11. (Figure 1a) and 1b) overleaf). *From 30th May 2001 the area between Red Point, including Loch Torridon, and the south end of the British Underwater Test and Evaluation Centre (BUTEC) Range in the Inner Sound of Rona was closed to all mobile fishing gear - Scottish Statutory Instrument 2001 No. 174. (Figure 2). Method of capture: The exclusive use of baited Nephrops creels pots deployed on lines. Management system and practice: Those fishers taking part in the Loch Torridon Nephrops Creel Fishery who fish according to the Torridon Management Plan, a voluntary management plan implemented within the 'Closed Area' (defined above). Directed ultimately by the European Union (EU) through the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). Controlled nationally by the Member States of the EU. In UK waters the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) enforce legislation and quota management rules. For Scotland, the Scottish Executive, through a Subject Specific Concordat with DEFRA enforce legislation and quota management through the Scottish Executive Environment and Rural Affairs Department (SEERAD). 1.2 Assessment and Report structure The aims of the assessment are to determine the degree of compliance of the fishery with the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Fishing, as set out in Section 5. It must be stressed that this assessment is concerned only with the fishery defined above. No assessment is made here of the management of any other

  • Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019
    Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019 Produced as part of the Wester Ross Destination Development Plan preliminary research Context Upwards of an estimated c.100,000 tourists visit Wester Ross each year, sustaining local communities through their input to the local economy and tourism accounts for 35% of employment[1]. However, in the current climate (Summer 2019) there are concerns that a rise in tourism of up to 27% (estimate[2]) over the past few years may not be sustainable. Although a different perspective is that this has followed a deep recession in the tourism industry and visitor numbers have yet to return to the high levels enjoyed during the 1990s, the current situation is exacerbated by Local Authority and Public Agency budget cuts which have resulted in plans to close public toilets and a deterioration in road quality. In addition, the type of visitor has changed, Wester Ross is welcoming large amounts of campervans which require waste disposal facilities which are not yet in place. Local people are reporting over-flowing carparks and bins, increasing litter pollution and irresponsible behaviour. It is not unusual for local residents to cite increased litter as a negative aspect of tourism[3] and this together with other perceived negative impacts can become challenging to tourism development as the host community begin to view visitors less than favourably. Therefore, the World Tourism Organisation advises regions to adopt a model for tourism management which considers the social as well as economical and environmental impacts of tourism[4]. Mass tourism is not going away[5]. But currently, there is no hard-empirical evidence on visitor numbers, expectations and behaviour or condition of assets in Wester Ross which would allow communities, businesses, local authorities and public agencies to plan proactively.

Thanks for the support of our sponsors, in particular our Lead Sponsor, the Scottish Salmon Company, and others such as Kishorn Port Ltd and Ferguson Transport, we were delighted by both the turnout and the enthusiasm of all those who helped both before and on the day. Naming names would be invidious but we do want to thank you all most sincerely and encourage you all to join us at our Thank You Evening on Thursday 5th March in the Upper Hall. We shall tell you about our successes and the resulting £7000 nominal profit we made. Every single person who works at the Games, before, during or afterwards does so for love not money. We always have to keep enough back for the following year, in case we have to cancel at the last minute, which has only had to happen once in over forty years but you never know. Allowing for this and thanks to the successful accumulation over several good years, during 2019 we were able to distribute £19,000 locally. We want to ensure that this July we raise as much money again so do please join us to hear about how the local groups have made the most of their additional funds raised.

    WESTER ROSS AREA SALMON FISHERY BOARD c/o Wester Ross Fisheries Trust Office Dingwall Registry Harbour Centre SEPA Gairloch Graesser House Ross-shire Fodderty Way IV21 2BQ Dingwall Tel: 01445 712899 Fax 01445 712899 IV15 9XB E-mail: [email protected] 21st November 2018 Dear Sir/ Madam, Car Licence Application CAR/ L/ 1002917 Aird Ardheslaig MCFF, Loch Shieldaig Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this CAR application. As the statutory authority responsible for protecting wild salmon and sea trout in the waters around Wester Ross, the Wester Ross Area Salmon Fishery Board objects to this CAR application. Instead of SEPA considering a biomass increase, we request that the biomass consent for this farm is reduced to a level at which the farm can demonstrate that it is able to maintain control of parasitic sea lice using means available to it without harm to wild fish populations and the wider environment. Our reasoning is as follows: 1. Salmon farms in Loch Torridon have failed to adequately control of sea lice within the past two production cycles to ensure that wild fish remain healthy in surrounding waters. There is a long record of monitoring sea lice in Loch Torridon, and summary data is published on the Marine Scotland Shieldaig Project website. Elevated concentrations of infective sea lice have been recorded every second year of the production cycle, most recently in 2015 and 2017. Loch Shieldaig sea lice monitoring site is located within 5km of the Aird salmon farm. The graphs below are from the Marine Scotland website: Source: https:// www2.

  • 25 Applecross Wild Land Area
    Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 25 Applecross Wild Land Area 1 Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 Context One of four WLAs in Wester Ross, extending over 137 km2 of the north and east of the Applecross peninsula. Flanked by a main road to the east and otherwise minor single track roads, it is relatively distant from large population centres. There is a range of high, dramatic mountains in the south that tower over deep U-shaped glens and Loch Kishorn, extending to more undulating peatland and hills within the centre and north of the WLA and, finally, a band of rocky cnocan towards the north coast with Loch Torridon. This composition represents the underlying geology - the mountains formed of hard Torridonian sandstone that rise above older Lewisian gneissi and deep glens, corries and shattered rocks formed during glaciation. Land within the WLA is used mainly for deer stalking, stock grazing, fishing, nature conservation and recreation. This is influenced by ownership and management of much of the area by The Applecross Trust who state they are: ‘…committed to ensuring that the special character of the peninsula is preserved in a responsible and progressive manner whilst acknowledging it wilderness heritage…’ii The area is uninhabited, but contributes significantly to the visual backdrop of a number of small and dispersed harbour and crofting settlements just outside, including Kenmore, Ardheslaig and Shieldaig around the north coast, Londain on the west, and Rassal and Achintraid in the south. The WLA is also viewed from outside its edge along the coast road between Shieldaig and Applecross Bay, and between here and Kishorn over the Bealach na Bàiii.
