The summary of findings from the Esk Byelaw consultation is now posted on Citizen Space.
Closed consultation: River Esk byelaw consultation
Consultation description
The Environment Agency intends to apply to the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for confirmation of the byelaw for the River Esk, made under the Water Resources Act 1991.
The byelaw will prohibit fishing or attempting to take salmon and sea trout, smelt, shad, eels and freshwater fish by any means from the tideway of the River Esk in North Yorkshire, from Ruswarp Weir downstream to the Eskside Wharf.
This byelaw is considered necessary to protect the stocks of salmon and sea trout from the pressure of uncontrolled fishing in the tideway.
