Ecological reconstruction works on Gilort and Galbenu Rivers
If some time ago we talked about the afforestation works to be carried out in the Natura 2000 site of Gilort River, today we will present the works for the restoration of migration corridors and habitats for fish species in the Gilort River.

So, regarding reconstruction, we need to have a starting point, and the local community is the one that has been a permanent witness to the changes occurred in riverbed and fish species that once inhabited it in large numbers.
