Environmental Health routinely monitor shellfish production sites across 51³Ô¹ÏÃâ·ÑApp and Bute. We also monitor water quality in relation to naturally occurring algal toxins and when levels are identified as being unsafe harvest areas are closed.
If you are planning to harvest shellfish and want to check whether the area is open you should contact the Shellfish Sampling Team via 01546 605519.
