Bathing waters

Bathing waters in Italy

Directive 2006/7/EC concerning the management of bathing water quality, transposed in Italy by Legislative Decree No 116 of 30 May 2008 and implemented by the Ministry of Health Decree of 30 March 2010, provides that each water is assigned a quality class (excellent, good, sufficient and poor).

The indicator shows the number of waters falling into each class, and is drawn up on the basis of ‘seasonal information’ published in the European Environment Agency’s Country Report
derived from the annual Community Report that the Ministry of Health prepares based on the results of monitoring carried out by ARPAs and Regional Health Authorities.

The indicator provides an indicative description of the qualitative state of bathing water at the microbiological level.
