Dredging often makes flooding worse downstreamTbh I've also thought that the rivers not getting dredged were one of the causes of the amount of flooding we've seen in recent years, although admittedly I'm no expert.

Shellfish deaths possibly caused by new disease - report
The report from 12 independent experts found toxic chemicals and dredging were very unlikely causes.www.bbc.co.uk
it's as though their instruction was ' just make something up '.The study was desk-based? Is this normal? I'm not too sure it vindicates the conservative MPs/Mayors down there like.
Strange how it suddenly develops when they start dredging the Tees.![]()

Money talks, there's been some palms lined here.I thought the experts were always right.
The independent panel that DEFRA commissioned didn't speak to the independent experts who the fishermen etc commissioned at all. It was an entirely desk-based review with no experimental research and no hearings.
Doesn't feel satisfactory that we have a position where DEFRA scientists swore blind it was algal bloom, the fishermen and conservation scientists said it wasn't, it was pyridine, and now the DEFRA group have said it was neither, but instead it was some new disease or infection of a kind on which nobody has found any evidence, and nobody has seen or isolated.
Also odd that this disease hasn't really spread further up or down the coast.
