Breaking Dam Removal News

Get your Dam Removal Counted! 

It’s that time of year again! 

We have begun collecting data on the dam removals executed in 2021 in Europe, which is essential to evaluate the implementation advancement of EU policies and to analyze the progress of this river restoration measure in each country.

So  far, our surveys have found 61 dam removals overall in 2021. Dam removals recorded in the survey took place in  Spain (14), UK (10), France (8), Montenegro (3), Finland (3), Sweden (12), The Netherlands (2), Ukraine (2), Germany (2), Lithuania (1), Austria (1), Slovakia (1), Portugal (1), and Poland (1). However, we know we are missing many countries and many more projects. That is where you come in!

Do you know of any barrier removals (weirs, dams, culverts, etc.) that occurred in 2021? If so, please email Foivos Mouchlianitis at foivos@fishmigration.org. He will send you a form to fill out, as well as the important criteria to record your dam removal. We will be collecting information until March 3rd, and will share the final report with you in May.

Thank you in advance for your input. Let’s track some dam removals!

Record your dam removal!
We hope you are staying safe, healthy and positive in these evolving times. To keep updated, please make sure to follow us on social media! 


Kind regards,
