The Environment Agency investigation is being supported by Yorkshire Water and there will also be a water sampling project lead by Durham University.

Yorkshire Water says it will be contributing to help fund the intensive Environment Agency investigation throughout the Summer of 2024 to identify potential influences on poor water quality.
Scarborough Councillor Rich Maw has welcomed the commitment but questioned the level of investment.
