Three things we do

Testing

Nitrate, phosphate and E. coli at fixed points, same day each week, so trends mean something.

Publishing

Every result on an open map within 48 hours, including the ones that embarrass us.

Reporting

When a site spikes, we file with the regulator and follow the case until it closes.
