This book delves into a neglected area of river management, focusing on the discharge of compensation waters into rivers. The author decries the harmful effects of intermittent discharge, which has become customary in England but remains unheard of in Scotland. The intermittent method deprives rivers of their natural continuous flow, leading to pollution, degradation of the riverbed, and loss of amenities for riverside communities. The author argues compellingly for a return to the natural, continuous discharge of compensation waters, highlighting its benefits for sanitation, fish populations, and the overall health of rivers. This timely book sheds light on an overlooked aspect of river conservation, offering valuable insights for water resource managers, environmentalists, and anyone concerned with the preservation of our waterways.
