The National Environment Agency has released a statement outlining monitoring plans for Black Sea water quality.

“The monitoring of the water quality will be conducted once every 10 days at 9 designated stations. Upon completion of the research, the Agency will report the findings promptly.

The research will focus on determining key physicochemical parameters of seawater, including salinity, biogenic elements and other relevant indicators. Collected samples will be sent to the atmospheric air, water, and soil analysis laboratory of the National Environment Agency.

This laboratory adheres to modern requirements and standards. Equipped with highly precise analytical instruments, the laboratory is accredited under ISO 17025. The results obtained from the laboratory will be promptly shared with the public”, - reads the statement.
