There is an emergency/storm overflow from the Clennon Valley pumping station that discharges to the sea 200m from the Environment Agency bathing water monitoring point. There is an emergency/storm overflow from the Grange Court storage tank that discharges to the Goodrington Stream 500m upstream.
The operation of the overflows can lead to a temporary drop in bathing water quality.
