Waterway health — Recreational — Enterococci monitoring results — 2023–2024

Brisbane City Council monitors the quality of waterways to ensure the public is not exposed to unnecessary health risk. Council monitors the water quality at 11 sites in the Brisbane River and sections of Moreton Bay, which have high rates of recreational use. The datasets derived from the monitoring are published and warning signs are put in place where required.

Information on water quality monitoring can be found on the Brisbane City Council website.

This dataset consists of the level of microbial contamination within Brisbane River and Moreton Bay. Brisbane City Council monitors of enterococci bi-monthly in summer and monthly during the cooler winter months. The presence of high levels of enterococci can vary daily, and may be elevated after heavy rainfall. Enterococci exposure can contribute to increased health risk and primary contact should be avoided.

The Data and resources section of this dataset contains further information for this dataset.

布里斯班市议会（Brisbane City Council）会对水道水质开展监测工作，以保障公众不会面临不必要的健康风险。该议会在布里斯班河与摩顿湾（Moreton Bay）的11处休闲使用率较高的点位进行水质监测。监测生成的数据集将对外公开，并在有需要时设置警示标识。
水质监测的相关信息可于布里斯班市议会官网查询获取。
本数据集涵盖布里斯班河与摩顿湾水域的微生物污染水平数据。布里斯班市议会会在夏季每双周监测一次肠球菌（enterococci），在较为寒冷的冬季则每月开展一次监测。肠球菌的高含量水平每日均会出现波动，且在强降雨后可能会出现升高情况。接触高浓度肠球菌的水域会提升健康风险，因此应避免直接接触此类水域。
