Increased lime prices have made the work against acidified lakes and waterways more expensive. Now the Sea and Water Authority (Hav) is pushing ten million to the county administrations.

“We assess that the contribution constitutes a necessary reinforcement to the lime operations,” says Mårten Gustafsson at Hav in a press release.

Hav stuer also makes extra contributions to the restoration of aquatic environments and efforts against invasive species. In total, it is pushed to SEK 22 million.
