	To date, over 20km of habitat work (single bank) has been completed on the Ithon and its tributaries, including the Natmel, Clywedog, Gwenlas and Blue Lins. Three Usk tributaries have also benefitted from habitat improvement - the Bran, Yscir and Berthin (8.58km).

Three Usk tributaries have also benefitted from habitat improvement - the Bran, Yscir and Berthin (8.58km).
	Three barriers to fish passage have been removed within SMS12, from the Llantrisant Brook, Berthin and mouth of the Ffrwd, all lower Usk tributaries. Two other lower Usk fish passes have been modified; on the Nant Ffrwd and Rhyd-y-Meirch.

Two other lower Usk fish passes have been modified; on the Nant Ffrwd and Rhyd-y-Meirch.
	A further 15km of the Ithon catchment (single bank) has been consented for habitat work later in 2014 along with approximately 6km of the Yscir. In addition, four fish easements are in the planning permission stage (3 on the upper Wye and one on the Gavenny) while another barrier will be removed from the Olway.

	Potential sites for the abstraction and introduction of gravel to the Elan have been assessed and we are almost ready to start work on this part of the project.
