Location

The document covers bathing areas in three municipalities: Locquirec, Guimaëc, and Saint-Jean-du-Doigt.

Water Quality

The document addresses implementation of European Directive 2006/7/CE on bathing water quality, which replaces the 1976 directive. It introduces new classification rules for beaches, preventive management of pollution risks, and user information measures. Water quality monitoring includes measurement of coliform bacteria, Escherichia coli, and intestinal enterococci as contamination indicators.

Risks

Potential contamination sources from wastewater discharges are evaluated. Bacterial indicators (E. coli and enterococci) reveal recent or older faecal contamination respectively.
