There's a good chance for another clear improvement of a fish migration route in River Bode ahead. River Bode, a tributary to River Saale in Sachsen-Anhalt, homes abundant fish stocks in numbers and species in certain stretches. After the tear-down of the weir at Oschersleben and the following conversion into a natural river, a speaker of the ministry in charge presented the prospect of also converting the installation at Krottdorf to a naturelike rough riverbed as "Die Volksstimme" reported after a meeting at the location.  Present at the meeting were representatives of "Landesbetriebes für Hochwasserschutz und Wasserwirtschaft Sachsen-Anhalt (LHW)", "Wirtschaftsministeriums (MWL), "Umweltministeriums (MWU) von Sachsen-Anhalt", Angling Association Oschersleben and "IG Bodelachs". The deputy media-spokesman of the MWU, Robin Baake, presented the prospect of a revision of the planning permission of 2014. This would contain the conversion into a fully permeable riverbed. In this case the strictly protected brook lampreys would be able to pass the area of Krottdorf in both directions unimpededly.
