National Water Quality Framework

The National Water Quality Framework (NWQF) is a set of guidelines and standards used by countries to assess, monitor, and manage the quality of their water resources. It helps ensure water is safe for drinking, agriculture, recreation, and ecosystems by establishing clear criteria for pollutant levels and water conditions. The framework supports water protection by guiding policies, regular testing, and responses to contamination, aiming for sustainable management of water resources for current and future needs.
