Measures for 2027 Water Body Objectives Across UK Operational Catchments

Environment Agency data from 2016 summarizes measures needed to achieve water body objectives by 2027 and beyond for each operational catchment in English river basin districts and the Severn. The spreadsheet supports the cycle 2 river basin management plans and was used to produce summary programmes of measures. The dataset was last updated on 2026-07-06.

Use Cases

• Analyze planned environmental interventions based on operational catchment summaries.
• Track progress towards 2027 water quality objectives based on listed measures.
• Support river basin management plan development based on summary programmes of measures.

Strengths

• Data is tied to specific regulatory objectives and a 2027 timeline.
• Spatial coverage includes all operational catchments in English river basin districts and the Severn.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to uk_data.
