Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order renews for the third time the prohibition contained in Article 3 of the River Tummel Catchment Area Protection Order 1983 which prohibited fishing for or taking freshwater fish in inland waters in the area prescribed in that Order without legal right or without written permission from someone having such a right. The effect of the renewal is that the prohibition has effect from 8th October 1991 to 7th October 1994.

The prescribed area referred to is the whole of the catchment area of the River Tummel upstream from its confluence with the River Tay at Ballinluig which area lies within the Tayside, Highland and Strathclyde Regions, but excluding that part of the catchment area of Loch Ericht lying within Highland Region. The area is illustrated on a map attached to the 1983 Order and is defined by reference to a detailed large scale map which may be inspected at the principal office of the Scottish Office Agriculture and Fisheries Department in Edinburgh, on any working day between 10am and 4pm.

The map annexed to and forming part of this note gives a general guide to the boundaries of the prescribed area.
