There are details in today's Irish Times.

"Malfunctioning equipment at a sewage pumping station has caused the first serious fish kill this summer in the west. Several hundred wild brown trout and some salmon fry and parr have been killed by the pollution leak on a stretch of the Clarin river"

The WRFB investigated. Five species were effected, including protected brook lampreys, juvenile salmon, brown trout, minnows and stickleback.

The WRFB intend to prosecute. They are concerned about the effect of the raw sewang in the hot weather.
