Hi
I'm sure people are already aware (but just incase) of a large amount of diesel was found in Little Neath River cave yesterday. The passage to the sump smells strongly of diesel and there is white 'spillage' completely covering the mud bank where the rescue dump is (near the sump). There is evidence of it elsewhere in the cave.
I'm not sure off hand who the best person to contact is about conservation at this site, so hopefully my post will prompt them to get in contact. I took some photos of the spillage in addition to a rather nice (fortunately alive) albino trout which we found in the sump.
I'll happily assist in a clean up operation if it's deemed appropriate.
If anyone knows who I should contact (or if anyone would like to contact me) please drop me a message.
As an aside, if anyone wants the (good) photo of the albino trout for scientific purposes, you are welcome. Just let me know.
Cheers
Chris
