The Opportunity Catchment boundaries were created using Water Framework Directive (WFD) (now the WFD Regulations 2017) Cycle 1 waterbody catchment boundaries with small, non reportable waterbodies (e.g. drain to transitional and coastal (TRAC) waterbodies) included where relevant. Cycle 2 transitional and coastal waterbodies have been included where they have a similar hydrodynamic regime and are subject to similar pressures to terrestrial waterbodies at the seaward extent. For cross border waterbodies they have been split into two parts one in Wales and England. A definition query based on the \Cross_Border\" field displays only the Opportunity Catchments in Wales. To see the parts of the Dee and Central Monmouthshire catchments that extend into England remove the definition query."
