Seine swimming had been banned since 1923 , the year before Paris last hosted the Olympics , due to the health risk posed by a river contaminated by a city’s wastewater.
French authorities want swimmers to be able to enjoy the river once again from next summer , at three permanent dedicated sites in Paris , with 20 or so more sites planned.
Water-quality data from last summer shows the Seine was unswimmable roughly 30 percent of the time.
