Fisheries issues warning over partial outage of shark monitoring network off Albany

A shark advice has been issued for Albany due to a partial outage in WA’s shark monitoring network. Fisheries advised on Thursday afternoon that the shark monitoring network receiver at Frenchman Bay was offline. “The Frenchman Bay receiver has a technical fault and is out of operation until further notice,” Fisheries said. “Restoration of the service will require a maintenance crew to assess the full extent of the repairs required.” There are two shark monitoring network receivers in Albany waters — one at Ellen Cove and the other at Frenchman Bay.
