WCRC continually monitors surface water quality at a range of sites including rivers, lakes, and coastal marine environments. Most of these sites, to varying degrees, are impacted by human activity that may affect their quality. Data from this monitoring is used to assess the state and trends of our surface water quality resources and allows the community to make informed decisions about their use and management.
The current report summarises the results from the Surface Water Quality and Ecology Monitoring Programme for data up to 2025.
