5k Environmentol Protection Report WATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 April 1992 FW P/9 2/ 0 0 1 Author: B Steele Technicol Assistant, Freshwater NRA National Rivers Authority CVM Davies South West Region Environmental Protection Manager HATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 _ . - - TECHNICAL REPORT NO: FWP/92/001 The maps in this report indicate the monitoring locations for the 1992 Regional Water Quality Monitoring Programme which is described separately. The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a. EC Dangerous Substances Directive b. EC Freshwater Fish Water Quality Directive c. DOE Harmonised Monitoring Scheme d. DOE Red List Reduction Programme c. EC Bathing Water Directive f. Paris Commission g. EC Decision on Exchange of Information h. WHO Global Environmental Monitoring System (GEMS) i. EC Surface Abstraction Directive j. EC Shellfish Water Quality Directive k. NRA/NERC Environmental Change Network (ECN) The inclusion of the user reference numbers also enables data to be accessed from the water quality archive. The water quality monitoring maps are used both within the NRA for background information within a catchment and are sent out to the general public both for consultation and for general information. ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 110277 It should be noted that the 'maps' in these reports are not designed to be accurate Ordnance Survey Maps. They are diagrammatic representations of catchments designed to fit A4 format with grid numbers and an approximate scale provided as an aid to location. There nay be apparent discrepancies between the two forms of presentation. Accurate grid references are provided by the lists. The maintenance and review of these maps is undertaken by Barbara Steele, Technical Assistant Freshwater Planning, to whom amendments, additions and deletions should be sent.
