UPDATE: Uisce Éireann lift boil water notice for town in Tipperary
The Boil Water Notice on the Fethard Regional Public Water Supply Scheme has been lifted with immediate effect
Uisce Éireann can confirm that, following consultation with the Health Service Executive, customers can now resume normal use of the public water supply.
The notice was issued on 27 January to protect the health of approximately 7,050 due to a deterioration in raw water quality entering the plant which affected the treatment process.
Drinking water experts from Uisce Éireann worked to lift the notice as quickly and as safely as possible. Following satisfactory water sampling results, the notice has now been lifted.
Uisce Éireann’s Colin Cunningham acknowledged the impact of a Boil Water Notice on customers and thanked the community for their support while the notice was in place.
“Uisce Éireann’s primary focus remains the protection of public health and we worked with our stakeholders to lift the notice as quickly as possible. We are grateful to customers, elected representatives, and the media for their assistance in sharing information on the Boil Water Notice.”
Uisce Éireann is committed to keeping customers informed across multiple platforms 24/7 and we encourage customers to engage with us through our website, X channels @IWCare and @IrishWater, on Facebook and LinkedIn and through our customer care helpline which is open 24/7 on 1800 278 278.
