So it looks like the problem has moved. The idea, of course, was that all the dead fish and the duckweed, those tiny, floating, green water plants, would just flow into the sea. But this weekend it was spring tide. That means that the water rises extremely high. And so all those dead fish and plants in the IJzermonding nature reserve, near the sea, have remained. It also stinks there now.
“Natuurpunt does not agree with the approach,” says Luc David of Natuurpunt Westkust. When such things happen, it is intended that work is done at the source and not at the mouth. So here it had to be tackled in the channels. So basically the problem needs to be tackled here in the channels. This can be done, for example, by scooping up the duckweed and dead fish. And not just discharge it towards the sea. ”
