Water Quality Strategy
The major aim of the project was to develop a generic
water quality monitoring program for rivers, streams and groundwater
within the SE Queensland region of Australia.
More specifically, this project has:
- Developed a classification system for the freshwaters of the region
- Identified appropriate indicators for assessing water quality (vis
ecological health)
- Identified water quality guidelines appropriate to the principal
classes of waters
- Undertaken pilot studies to test indicators, assess variability and
to develop appropriate guidelines
- Designed an effective coordinated monitoring and assessment program
for freshwaters of the region which will be able to measure and report
on current and future changes in water quality and ecological condition
