Water Quality

Water quality monitoring includes bacteriological analysis of daily concentrations. Two designated bathing zones (Sainte Cécile and Saint Gabriel) are classified and monitored. Quality is influenced by wastewater discharge from the Touquet agglomeration sanitation system and upstream Canche basin contributions.
