Executive summary:

In the data bank ELWAS-IMS of the Federal State of Northrhine-Westfalia (NRW, Germany) monitoring data of phenol for the year 2002 are reported. In 2002, phenol was measured at 14 different sites in surface waters in NRW (typically 3 -5 measurements/site). Phenol was not detected at any sampling point (limit of determination: <=0.1 µg/L).
