| Summary: | The objective of the Remibar (Remediation of Migratory Barriers in Streams) project has been to remove 304 migration barriers in five project areas in as many river systems in the counties of Norrbotten and Västerbotten in northern Sweden. The five river systems are protected under the Natura 2000 Habitats Directive. In Norrbotten, the project areas were: Ängesån (part of the Kalix River system), Råneälven (most of the Råne River system), and Varjisån (part of the Pite River system). In Västerbotten, the two project areas Sävarån and Lögdeälven each encompassed one river system, i.e., the Sävar River and Lögde River systems. The Remibar project started in 2011 and was completed in 2016. It was financed by the EU Commission through the Life+ programme, which is an EU environmental fund. Remibar
