Rivers and seas watch information

Each of our individual storm overflow outfalls are represented with a circle, and our region’s designated bathing waters are represented with location pin.

The bathing water pins act as an umbrella, containing all outfalls that are associated with it. If one outfall associated with the bathing water is showing as red, it’s associated bathing water pin(s) will also be red. Some outfalls are associated with more than one bathing site; if a release from an outfall can impact the bathing site, then that outfall would be classed as associated with it.

Red: Release(s) in the last 24 hours

Amber: Release(s) in the last 72 hours

Green: No releases within the last 72 hours

Grey: Under maintenance

To use the map simply locate the area or bathing site you’re interested in by zooming in or using the search bar, then;

• Click on an outfall circle to see details of any recent releases, the bathing water(s) the outfall is associated with, and navigation to the historic release table.
  
  
• Click on a bathing water pin to see details of any recent releases associated with that bathing water, the outfall(s) associated with the bathing water, and navigation to the historic release table.

Our Rivers and Seas Watch release table allows historic releases to be filtered by date, bathing site, outfall, status and impact, you can also customise the table columns to your liking.

We believe in transparency and sharing of data, so we included the option to download results from the release table to a spreadsheet using the ‘actions’ button.
