Can you drink tapwater in Corfu?

Corfu is in case of water quality gross.The project was carried out by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, under the supervision of a Joint Task Force JTF consisting of representatives from national agencies. The JTF includes experts from local authorities, state governments, EU and EUfunded research programmes, as well as civil society organisations. In this context, the work was coordinated by an independent team appointed by both EU institutions and local stakeholders. It aims to assess the existing situation with regard to environmental conditions and water management within the catchment area of the river. This work also aims at setting up the first comprehensive environmental monitoring network for the water body. A monitoring programme on the health of drinking water supplies will be developed after the project has been completed. As part of this programme, a number of studies are being carriedout to identify sources of contamination and establish the levels of pollution in the drinking supply. These studies include investigations into the quality of potable water available in areas where drinking wells have been closed down or their owners have moved away due to health risks. They aim to verify the reliability of information provided by local inhabitants who claim to know about the condition of these wells. An analysis of data collected through surveys conducted across the entire water distribution system showed that the majority of people do not use water from such facilities. However, some households appear to rely on them for drinking purposes. Such results highlight the importance of conducting regular inspections throughout the system to avoid any possible breaches of quality. Information obtained during the monitoring process will then be used to improve water treatment practices and to reduce the impact of contaminants in drinking waters. Furthermore, it will help to determine the effectiveness of different water purification techniques. Another important aspect of our work concerns the establishment of effective control mechanisms aimed at preventing contamination of groundwater. We therefore intend to carry out a systematic study of all potential points of entryexit of contaminated groundwaters which may become a source of public health problems. To this end, we will carryouts field experiments focused on groundwater quality monitoring along a long course of aqueducts connecting three different sites. Finally, another major element of Project 2 is the implementation of training programmes targeted at both civil service workers and residents involved in household activities. Our goal is to create a better understanding of issues related to water safety and quality and how they can be addressed.

Scale is from 0 to 100 while 0 represents the least water pollution thus the best water quality. A value below 50 is considered safe to drink in most cases. * External data.
