Name: Max Faecal Coliform Concentration in Irish Waters (2014)
Creator: ckan

DatasetProfiled3/7blocked by executablePreviewSubscribe🇮🇪Ireland

This dataset reports maximum recorded concentrations of faecal coliform bacteria (per 100ml) measured in 2014 at monitoring locations across the Irish Environmental Protection Agency's Water Framework Directive (WFD) Groundwater Monitoring Network. It covers groundwater sampling sites throughout Ireland and forms part of national water quality monitoring conducted under the EU Water Framework Directive. The figures represent peak bacterial contamination levels observed during the year at each site, providing a snapshot of groundwater microbiological quality relevant to environmental and public health assessment.Max concentrations in 2014 for Faecal Coliform (per 100ml) in samples from monitoring locations on the Irish Environmental Protection Agency Water Framework Directive (WFD) Groundwater Monitoring Network.
