The
Severn Barrage
At
a recent committee meeting our attention was drawn to the findings of a
recent enquiry, jointly sponsored by the RSPB
and the Wye & Usk
Foundation, into the plans for
the proposed Severn
Barrage. We were warned of the serious danger to wildlife,
particularly to fish and birds, posed by this project.
More information can be found on the RSPB's
website.
