***The demonstration activity on “Management of Recreational Waters” should address the regional target on “reduce contaminants, particularly in bathing beaches and other marine recreational waters, to nationally acceptable levels,” and result in the proposal of a management framework for recreational waters. It should also show how the implementation of the management framework can improve stakeholder’s environmental awareness and enhance public confidence in health and safety issues.***
