Water Quality Samples The Dublin City Central Laboratory maintains a database of river , bathing water, sewage and drinking water samples and results of any tests carried out on those samples, from . There are three .xml spreadsheets contained here: The drinkingwater check monitoring data shows samples taken from consumers houses but the specific address is not included in the file, rather an aggregated location e.g. Marino, Sandymount,Drumcondra, Ballymun etc. Also included is drinking water audit monitoring data in a separate file. The river file contains data for the operational monitoring carried out to comply with the Water Frame Work Directive. Bathing water quality results can be viewed (or subscribe to RSS feed) at: http://www.dublincity.ie/WaterWasteEnvironment/WasteWater/Ringsend%20Waste%20Water%20Treatment/Pages/BathingWaterQualityResults.aspx

This data provides daily accumulated inflow volumes for wastewater treatment at the two Melbourne Water site (Western and Eastern). This data is collected using network flow monitoring devices. This data has been processed and stored as official inflow volumes received by Melbourne Water over a 24 hour period (12am to 12am). Wastewater volume is the total accumulated flow received from the sewer and stormwater networks. This data set is best used in long and short term wastewater services demand analysis. NOTE: Whilst every effort has been taken in collecting, validating and providing the attached data, Melbourne Water Corporation makes no representations or guarantees as to the accuracy or completeness of this data.

We have established a Vessel Sewage No Discharge Zone (NDZ) for Puget Sound and certain adjoining waters. The NDZ is a body of water where boats may not release sewage, whether treated or not. It helps protect public health, water quality, and sensitive resources. The NDZ (Chapter 173-228 WAC) was adopted on April 9, 2018, after a five year public process and approval from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The rule was effective May 10, 2018. However, certain commercial vessels have a five year delay before the rule begins. There is no change for graywater discharges. For more information, visit Ecology's NDZ webpage.

Web Soil Survey (WSS) provides soil data and information produced by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. It is operated by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and provides access to the largest natural resource information system in the world. NRCS has soil maps and data available online for more than 95 percent of the nation’s counties and anticipates having 100 percent in the near future. The site is updated and maintained online as the single authoritative source of soil survey information.

The Eastern Treatment Plant (ETP) receives sewage from the eastern side of Melbourne. This file describes the quality of the sewage received by providing results of regular sampling.The sample is taken with a flow-weighted auto-sampler. Samples are collected at 7:00 AM each day and relate to the previous 24 hours (e.g. timestamp of 5/1/19 07:00 was sampled between 4/1/19 07:00 and 5/1/19 07:00). Results are in milligrams per litre (mg/L). To calculate an incoming load in raw sewage, match this with wastewater inlet hourly flow for the same time period (as noted in the example).Quality parameters include: Ammonia (Ammonia as N) (mg/L), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) (mg/L), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) (mg/L), Nitrate plus Nitrite (mg/L), Nitrogen (Nitrogen (total)) (mg/L).NOTE.

The Eastern Treatment Plant (ETP) receives sewage from the eastern side of Melbourne. This file describes the volume of sewage pumped through ETP on an hourly basis.NOTE.

The Eastern Treatment Plant (ETP) discharges treated effluent  in accordance with EPA Victoria licence AL74284 to an ocean outfall at Boag Rocks. This file contains hourly flowrate data at the treatment plant pumpstation. From the pumpstation, the effluent takes several hours (typically 4-8 h) to reach the ocean.NOTE.
