Natural Resources Wales (NRW) monitors bathing water sites identified under EC Bathing Waters Directive 2006/7/EC in Wales. Samples are taken throughout the bathing season from May to the end of September and analysed for two parameters: Escherichia coli and intestinal enterococci. A classification of bathing water quality, generally based on 4 years of sample results, is produced for each bathing water at the end of each season.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This dataset consists of 6 tables: Bathing Water Sites; Seasonal Info; Monitoring Results, Abnormal Situations; Short term Pollution; Bathing Water Classification. The data is extracted from the NRW WISKI (KiWQM) System data which holds other information such as environmental monitoring and water quality information. This is a non GIS dataset.
