(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order prohibits the fishing for or taking of freshwater fish in inland waters in the area prescribed, without legal right or written permission from someone having that right.
The prescribed area lies in Grampian Region and consists of the part of the catchment area of the River Don comprising the River Don and its banks between, in the west, the confluence of the Allt Tuileach and the Meoir Veannaich and, in the east, Brig of Balgownie, and the River Urie and its banks downstream from the upstream side of Howford Bridge. The area is defined by reference to a detailed large scale map which may be inspected at the office of the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries for Scotland, Pentland House, Robb’s Loan, Edinburgh on any working day between 8.30am and 4.30pm.
The map annexed to and forming part of this note gives a general guide to the parts of the rivers comprising the prescribed area.
Under section 9(1) of the Freshwater and Salmon Fisheries (Scotland) Act 1976 “inland waters” are defined as not including the tidal parts of rivers. The prohibition in article 3 of the Order does not apply to the tidal parts of the River Don.
