摘要
The possible health impacts of freshwater recreational use are significant. Yet there are no reliable epidemiological data on which to quantify this risk. Hence, there is no scientific base for water quality standards for fresh recreational waters and there is little justification for the present UK policy in this regard. This has resulted in no inland freshwater sites being identified under the terms of the EC Bathing Waters Directive. © 1991.
