Appendix 6 – Note of Nethy Bridge and Laggan meetings
This document contains records of site visits and meetings held by the Cairngorms National Park Authority regarding concerns about the reintroduction of beavers near Nethy Bridge and Laggan. Farmers and landowners voiced concerns about potential damage to flood banks, agricultural land, and existing conservation projects due to beaver activity. They requested compensation schemes, long-term support, and a beaver exclusion zone. The Park Authority and NatureScot are tasked with addressing these concerns, exploring solutions, and providing additional support to landowners, including advice, help with licensing and mitigation measures. The Park Authority will also map flood banks and beaver habitats to identify high-risk areas and facilitate visits to farms where beavers and farming coexist.
