Water was too high – heavy rain was the fault of hundreds of fish

Date:

Worse than in every port smoke on Saturday evening in the Kleinmünchen Power Plant, while an employee of Linz AG followed a course on the reservoir on the Jauckerbach to save Fish and Rescue Cadaver. Because the water was too high, many animals could no longer be saved.

“A pump for freshwater supply was also installed. The campaign continued on Sunday. Unfortunately, a complete fishing was still not possible due to the still very high level still not possible. At the same time, the water quality deteriorated. Linz AG regret that despite great dedication, not all fish could be saved,” said spokeswoman Susanne Gillhofer.

Long planned renovation work
What had happened? As part of the long -planned renovation work on the upper water channel for the Kleinmünchen energy plant, the water has been drained since Tuesday. Tens of thousands of fish were saved and hung elsewhere. However, because more water was removed than planned and the level on Thursday greatly increased, hundreds of animals could not be saved for technical reasons.

Leaked and cleaned
The high temperatures of the weekend and the rapidly falling water quality did the rest, soon countless fish rode dead on the surface. According to Linz AG, the last remaining fins were saved on Monday and Tuesday and animal carcases were removed. The channel is then completely emptied and cleaned before the renovation can begin.
