Bad news for the Usk in Brecon - More than 2,500 fish (trout and salmon parr)
have been killed by pollution in the Tarrell ( a tributary of the Usk). Apparently
a chlorine based chemical has leaked into the river from a unit at the town's industrial estate. A mate says dead fish and fry everywhere.

Bad newsI live near the Tarell,all fish within the river are pure wild fish,no stocking.This really is a kick in the *******s
I hope the idiots that did it are fined heavily.

It'll be interesting to see what the EA do about it

And fish legal hopefully can get involved.

Damn thats a lot of fish! I don't understand how a company can accidently do something like that.. More like it costs less to pay a fine than it would to have stuff disposed of properly...

And they can probably insure against it. It would be great if the penalty for repeat offences was closure of the business.

Any form of pollution is criminal. The b@stards responsible should face jail time, not a fine.

hopefully you have members of the angling trust who can get them onto the case aswell ,and if its been reported the EA will follow it up .
