Abstract:
This report describes the biological river quality monitoring programme to be undertaken by NRA South West Region in 1993. 515 sites are to be surveyed during 1993. The regional programme is completed in two years and comprises approximately 950 sites covering 4230 km of river and 27 km of canal. Half the catchments are surveyed in any one year. The couplete two-year programme matches the reaches monitored in the chemical monitoring programme. Additional sites are included so that all reaches that were assigned River

The following catchments are to be surveyed in full in 1993: Lim; Exe; Teign; Dart; Gara; Avon; Seaton; Looe; Fowey (lower sub-catchment only); Par; Crinnis; St Austell; South Cornwall; Streams; Fal; Helford; Lizard Streams; Land's End Streams; Hayle; Red and Coastal Streams; Gannel; Valency and Coastal Streams; Strat/Neet; Hartland Streams; North Devon Coastal Streams and Lyn.
