Gira collective farm. In 1977, a project for the construction of the ponds was approved with an estimated cost of 4.56 million roubles. The money was intended to compensate for environmental damage caused by the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant. The ponds took a decade to build. The first production in the ponds was made by the Ignalina Fish Farm in 1987. In 1988, the Ignalina Fishery Farm handed over the ponds to the L. Gira Collective Farm, and after the reorganisation of the farm, the Dysna Fishermen\u2019s Collective Farm was established. The Dysna fishermen\u2019s collective farm was headed by R. Vinci\u016bnas until 1992.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">On April 16, 1992, following the reorganisation of the Dysna Fishermen\u2019s Collective Farm, the Birv\u0117ta State Fishery Enterprise was established.
