Description

WFD Groundwater Classification Status and Objectives Cycle 1 dataset shows the classification status and environmental objectives for groundwater bodies across all River Basin Districts in England and Wales. Cycle 1 data was created in 2009 and covers the period from 2009-2015. The spreadsheet gives the following information for each groundwater body: - Identification and other geographical information (e.g. name, protected area designation) - Overall current status and status objectives - Current status and objectives for each element used to classify the water body - Justifications for any elements not reaching good status by 2015 (including the decision codes which act as a cross reference to further information which may be available). You must get a licence from Natural Resources Wales if you wish to use any data from sites in Wales.
