Scarborough's Bathing Water Not Effected by Agriculture

Following tests on bathing waters on the Yorkshire Coast, the environment agency have confirmed that there is no sign of agriculture run off at Scarborough's South Bay. 

That's from Claire Barrow, who is from the environment agency, and she says that there are still areas along the Yorkshire Coast which are effected by the run off. 

But there has been a significant increase in the amount of resources that have been given for agriculture inspections. 

That's according to Claire Campbell who is one of the environment agency's Bathing Water Technical Specialists.
