Made up of 21 beaches, the coast welcomes more than 2 million swimmers every year. Preserving the quality of bathing water is the last step in the water cycle. After having been treated and purified in purification stations, the sanitized water which complies with the regulations is returned to the natural environment. La gestion active de la qualité des eaux de baignade En amont de la saison estivale, SERAMM mène des actions préventives de curage et de tests à la fumée pour anticiper les dysfonctionnements des réseaux. En complément, des analyses bactériologiques sont effectuées pour mesurer la qualité de l’eau de mer. De mai à septembre, ces analyses sont renforcées pour permettre un suivi quotidien de la qualité des eaux de baignade de Marseille, Cassis et la Ciotat. Chaque jour, les laborantins du SERAMM analysent la concentration bactériologique des échantillons d’eau de mer avec la méthode Genspot® pour des résultats en 3H. En moyenne, 1800 analyses Genspot® sont réalisées par an. These analyzes allow SERAMM to ensure compliance with regulatory thresholds and to support communities in their decision to open or close beaches. If a degraded bathing water quality is detected, the community closes the beach concerned in order to allow SERAMM agents to carry out additional investigations. Downstream of the summer season, SERAMM establishes an action plan for the work required to seal and rehabilitate sanitary collectors located near the coast to anticipate the coming season and optimize the operation of the networks.
