Electrofishing of river systems to Scottish Fisheries Co-ordination Centre standards is undertaken by TransTech.  

The main objectives of electrofishing are:

• Fish removal and relocation (e.g. for road bridge developments or other construction works).
• Stock assessment.
• Fish health surveys.
• Tagging.
• Eliminating invasive species.

Surveys for river bed invertebrate presence which meet SEPA sampling standards can also be provided and for Hydro-Electric Schemes compensation flow requirements (e.g. Q95, Q98) can be assessed.

Work can be presented for Hydro-Electric Schemes as a standalone report or as a chapter for inclusion in an Environmental Statement.
