or more succinctly (note the comma at the end of the CheckConstraint
to indicate a tuple):

class Sites(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'locations'

    site_id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    site_name = Column(String(16), nullable=False)
    data_type = Column(String(12), nullable=False)
    source = Column(String(64))
    lat = Column(String(9))
    lon = Column(String(9))
    stream = Column(String(32))
    basin = Column(String(32))
    comment = Column(String)

    __table_args__ = (
        CheckConstraint(
            data_type.in_(
                ['Biogical', 'Chemical', 'Microbial', 'Physical', 'Multiple']
            )
        ),
    )
