The assessment of the quality of waters supporting marine bivalves and gastropods in the years 2003
to 2006 shows that, during the entire period, water at all three monitoring sites was compliant with
the criteria defined in the Decree (Chart 14, Map 10). The physico-chemical parameters did not deviate
from the prescribed mandatory values, and neither did fecal coliforms or the concentrations of organic
halogens. Heavy metals were in low concentrations present in the water, but the concentrations were
below the mandatory values in all monitoring sites.
