- The Bathing Water Directive requires Member
States to monitor areas during bathing season and to report results to the Commission
which then produces a report on the quality of European bathing water. The Commission
has set up an internet site at http://europa.eu.int/water/water-bathing/index_en.html.
This gives quality development for each location since the first year of monitoring
under the directive.....it also provides as useful "tourist atlas" to
enable people to find out what the bathing quality is in their country or
holiday destination. Further information about bathing water quality is also
available on the internet at http://www.enviroment-agency.gov.uk;
for England and Wales, at http://www.sepa.org.uk
for Scotland and at http://www.epa.ie for
Ireland.

A European Blue Flag Campaign website was launched in 1999 at http://www.blueflag.org.
