Details of the rivers which are open for harvest in 2010 can be found in the Wild Salmon and Sea Trout Tagging Scheme Regulations, 2009 (S.I. No. 557, 2009). Schedule 2 of the Regulations provides details of the Total Allowable Catch allocated to each river. A copy of the Regulations can be downloaded from the Department's website (www.dcenr.gov.ie).
The Regulations are administered by the relevant Regional Fisheries Board on a river by river basis. The Regulations also provide for the establishment of Fishery District Committees, comprising representatives from both commercial and recreational stakeholders, with whom the Chief Executive of the relevant Regional Fisheries Board consults, before allocating the quota in respect of those rivers which have an identified surplus for harvest.
