    Brief

    The Environment Agency is seeking to develop an updated national Hype hydrological model for bathing water quality assessment. The model will predict fecal indicator organism (FIO) quality levels, identify pollution sources through source apportionment analysis, and estimate the impact of potential pollution reduction measures on water quality. Deliverables should include outputs that support both environmental feasibility assessments for new bathing water designations and economic viability evaluations. This work is essential for meeting regulatory requirements to evaluate new bathing water sites and inform evidence-based decisions on pollution control investments.
