Data Provider: Welsh Government National Statistics Water framework directive draft classification by chemical status

Compliance with 'good status' under the Water Framework Directive. The information for this indicator was collected by the Environment Agency. The Water Framework Directive is European Union legislation – Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) – establishing a framework for European Community action in the field of water policy. This directive covers ecological status, chemical status and groundwater status. A Water Body is a manageable unit of surface water, being the whole (or part) of a stream, river or canal, lake or reservoir, transitional water (estuary) or stretch of coastal water. A ‘body of groundwater’ is a distinct volume of underground water within an aquifer.

The State of the Environment report presents data on the indicators that monitor progress against the Welsh Government's Environment Strategy. The full set of data, analysis, and notes on all of the indicators are available here through our StatsWales website. On StatsWales, the indicators are presented in a series of online reports which are also linked to data tables which users can then manipulate and/or download.

The statistics come from a range of sources in Wales and across the UK, which are updated at different times and intervals. The StatsWales reports will be updated once a year in July and these updates will be highlighted through a pre-announced headline statistics published on our website. A statistical bulletin showing the status of each indicator will be produced annually in July to provide a snapshot of progess across all the indicators.

The contribution of data and information by organisations which monitor the environment is gratefully acknowledged. Although most indicators are currently measured, some further work is planned to develop the other indicators and in some cases to identify more appropriate indicators, as indicated in the StatsWales reports.

The symbol '-' is used where the data is less than half the final digit shown. This may or may not be a real zero.

Unless otherwise stated, the data in these tables and indicator reports are classed as National Statistics.
