Monitoring

We have three categories of monitoring which have different but complementary purposes: surveillance, operational and investigative. This strategy ensures we are collecting the right information in the right place and allows us to concentrate our effort on the greatest risks to the environment.

We have three categories of monitoring which have different but complementary purposes: surveillance, operational and investigative. This strategy ensures we are collecting the right information in the right place and allows us to concentrate our effort on the greatest risks to the environment. We have many years of experience in monitoring and protecting the aquatic environment. In 2007, the Water Framework Directive (WFD) introduced the need for a broader, more holistic approach to monitoring and classifying Scotland’s aquatic environment. Its aim is to use data collected to protect and improve water bodies in order that they meet good ecological status, or similar objective. This moni

Shellfish water protected areas

Legislation directs SEPA to assess and classify each shellfish protected area. To deliver this we work closely with Food Standards Scotland (FSS). FSS sample, analyse and report water quality in production areas throughout the year to ensure shellfish are safe for consumption, or determine if they require further treatment. At the end of each year FSS provide SEPA with this data who use it to clas

Long-term river water quality indicator

SEPA publishes a long-term river water quality indicator, based on a network of sites covering 253 water bodies (rivers or sections of rivers). This indicator is based on a consistent set of five water quality parameters which are sensitive to organic pollution, nutrients and toxic substances, and which provide a measure of species diversity across approximately 10% of all water bodies.

The impacts of flooding can affect everyone, our role is to help Scotland prepare for the increased risk of flooding by raising awareness through education and engagement. Education work We develop and maintain our flooding awareness activities through the Curriculum for Excellence, working in partnership to extend the reach

Construction

Serious environmental harm could result from construction activities, such as excessive siltation from run-off, impeding fish migration or impacts on fish spawning. A number of construction-related activities therefore require authorisation from SEPA. The Water Environment (Controlled Activities) (Scotland) Regulations 2011, more commonly known as CAR regulations, and their amendments cover activi
