Most eggs from Denmark at the moment, from Trout Ex. All eggs sent to St. Mungos before moving to Frandy. All eggs hatched at St. Mungos. Can't get fish in from Denmark at the moment so next import will be from USA if required. Next import expected in Sept 2021.
Mortality from St Mungos taken to ensiler at Frandy. Morts transported in a designated closed bucket and they are transported using a pick-up truck.
A small number of fish on site observed with a loss of equilibrium but were unable to be caught.
System in place on site to measure oxygen in each tank. If oxygen levels drops below a pre-set parameter, the system automatically increases oxygen saturation to the required level.
Each tank has a separate hand net, cleaning brush and bucket of disinfectant.
Staff shared between St. Mungos and Frandy, but site specific PPE is used at each. Equipment is rarely transferred between sites but if it is, a disinfection note will be filled in before transfer. [Original PDF]

Download All facilities checked with only 28 currently stocked. All outdoor facilities (6 tanks, 15 raceways) along with the 8 raceways indoors and the hatchery are not in use and haven't been for some time. Water is sourced from the Lower Glendevon reservoir and is passed through a drum filter prior to entry onto site and through a second drum filter prior to exiting the site.
A portion of stock from a batch of fish from 2022 were observed with a loss of equilibrium but are feeding well, growing at the expected rate and behaving as expected with no increased mortalities observed. On discussion with site representative, the exact cause for this is undetermined at present but spinal deformities and issues with the swim bladder has been noted.
No moribund or lethargic fish were observed during inspection and one fish was removed to collect a VMD sample. No external signs of disease were observed of this fish with the gills appearing in good condition, no haemorrhaging or damage to the fins noted. Internal examination also showed no signs of disease.
Part of the case paperwork was carried out the week prior to the site inspection after digital biosecurity, treatment and health surveillance records were submitted to case inspector.
Water temperature was taken using site's own thermometer for biosecurity reasons.
All fish on site originate from ova hatched at St Mungos and transported in closed containers by the business with oxygen levels monitored. All mortalities at St Mungos are taken to Frandy and ensiled. [Original PDF]
