Testing Hatchery Effluents for Viruses, Pathogens, Diseases & Chemical Pollution

 

What testing of Landcatch's Ormsary Hatchery @HGSalmonUK has @ScottishEPA & @marinescotland carried out for chemical pollutants, infectious diseases, viruses, pathogens & bacteria discharged into Loch Caolisport? https://t.co/zI94s0VXCm @Feorlean @FergusEwingMSP @strathearnrose pic.twitter.com/WgKALrJhL4

Last week (1 October 2020), I asked in a blog: "Lithgow Baron Warned by Police for Threatening Behaviour Over Filming at Hendrix Genetics"

 

 

This cowboy - James Lithgow (Chairman of Lithgows & heir to the Baronetcy of Ormsary - the son of Sir William) - was warned by @policescotland for harassment & intimidation https://t.co/9ffifnT4wz What does @HGSalmonUK have to hide? @BetterBreeding @FergusEwingMSP @Feorlean pic.twitter.com/MYDe3W4fut

What dirty secrets are hiding at the Dutch-owned Hendrix Genetics Landcatch salmon hatchery at Ormsary on the shore of Loch Caolisport in Argyll? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems that the Lithgow family via Hendrix Genetics and the "very private" Ormsary Estate have privatised a public beach and blocked public access of Loch Caolisport.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not to mention polluting the beach at Ormsary on Loch Caolisport. 

 

 

 

 

It seems that the public have been scared away from enjoying Loch Caolisport by "hostile signs" and the "sinister Frankenstein-sounding name" of Hendrix Genetics - here's a walking blog from Ruth Livingstone in July 2018:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today (5 October 2020), Scottish Salmon Watch wrote to the Scottish Environment Protection Agency and Marine Scotland asking if the effluents from the Ormsary Hatchery had ever been tested for pollutants, pathogens, viruses, bacteria and infectious diseases.
