The NSW Recreational Fishing Trust, together with Snowy Hydro, will provide $88,600 to protect a 4-kilometre stretch of the Eucumbene River upstream from Lake Eucumbene, near the Dennision camping ground.
Mr Barilaro said, “The funding will go towards a new controlled parking area, which will help keep vehicles away from the river and restrict visitors to a camping area about 400 metres away.
This season more than 800,000 fish were stocked in the Monaro including Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Atlantic Salmon and Brook Trout.
