Supplementary notes
The source provides the following calculation: compliance rate (%) = (number of water areas meeting the standards / number of type-designated water areas) × 100
For the water areas subject to environment standards both for total nitrogen and total phosphorus, they are classified as water area achieving the standard only when both total nitrogen and total phosphorus fulfill the environment standards.
