What happens in Långå fisheries conservation association during 2021? The business plan, prepared by the board and approved by the meeting, includes a number of measures during the year. The plan is divided into seven areas, one of which deals with the board's work program and administration and one concerns ownership relations and member contacts..
In addition, the Fisheries Conservation Association's contract for the Grundsjö project, which continues as planned during the year, including the feasibility study for a ‘Pond in the Pond’ which will hopefully restore parts of the magazine for natural reproduction of Grundsjöröding.
The most labor-intensive work efforts are focused on projects, supervision and maintenance with biotope care as a special focus area. Project Långåljusnan reached its most important goal last summer and inauguration is planned for the end of July. The remaining section from Byggeshån at Medskogsbygget to Kolbenshån will be analyzed for measures and a plan will be drawn up for how that section will be renovated..
The aim is for the restoration work to be carried out during 2022 with remaining parts 2023.
Rest areas are reviewed, supplemented and maintained. Trails and paths are marked and signposted. Wind protection is being developed. Attention to climate change is sharpening.
An important investment that is made for Långåfisket is that, in addition to the experience of fishing, increase the content of the stay with greater knowledge and content from the Långå culture that is characterized by soil- and forestry as well as interesting relics and objects from human life, the liver, holidays and everyday life. The Långåljusnan project includes stories about the people along the river from woodcutters, driver, osseous, charcoal and floats to the life lived with the cultivating spirit of new buildings.
The fisheries management plan for 2021 – 2031 updated in May with continued focus on conservation, nurture and use, as has been the case for more than three hundred years. The overall goal is to preserve the original fish species through natural reproduction. In recent years, there are several examples of the sustainability of that strategy.
The investments comprise around SEK 1 million, including externally provided funds from Fortum Sverige AB, Härjedalen, The County Administrative Board, Hav- and water authority, The Swedish Board of Agriculture and the EU:s rural program. In addition, the value of unpaid voluntary efforts is worth just over 400 000 SEK.
