Case Number: 2022-0184


Download Site has stocked salmon and lumpfish. Salmon are from Landcatch (Ormsary), but transferred onto site from Gob a Bharra
(FS0683) and lumpfish are from Otter Ferry and were input on 02/03/2022.
SAV was detected in pen 9 and 10. Pancreas Disease (PD) then was also found in pen 6. Feeding was slightly reduced with low levels of PD found across the site. Pen 9 and 10 are back on their feed fully and feeding well. Mortalities remain low even though PD has been detected. Vaccine has been noted to be helping. During site inspection, very few fish were seen hanging around the pens.
All harvests will be conducted as livehaul.
Lumpfish are culled at harvest but new procedures will see lumpfish being reduced after each cycle.
Lumpfish mortality: from 06/06/2022 : 0.47%, 43
