Methodology for obtaining data This is a required, not null field.
Must be "1" if BathingWaterID is not new.
Must be "2" if BathingWaterID is new.
Must be "3" if Bathing water is not reported in other tables.
If a new monitoring point is established on the basis of a bathing water profile, a bathing water should be reported as not new ("1").
If a new identification code of a bathing water is provided, a bathing water should be reported as not new ("1"). A bathing water with an old identification code should not be reported as permanently closed ("3"). The old identification code should be provided under column "ChangeReason" of the same bathing water with a new identification code.
Permanently closed bathing water ("3") should no longer be considered as a bathing water and therefore there would not be any obligation to monitor and assess it.
