Boil Water Notice for 11,000 customers in Tipperary has been lifted
Notices remain in place for other areas of the county
The Boil Water Notice on the Glenary Public Water Supply in Clonmel has been lifted with immediate effect.
Uisce Éireann can confirm that, following consultation with the Health Service Executive, customers on this supply can now resume normal use of their water supply.
This follows remedial works with consistent satisfactory sampling results.
The Boil Water Notice was issued on June 23 to protect the health of approximately 11,000 customers following an issue that impacted the disinfection process at the plant.
Drinking water experts from Uisce Éireann worked hard to lift the notice for impacted customers as quickly and as safely as possible.
Uisce Éireann’s Pierce Faherty acknowledged the impact of the notice on the community.
“Uisce Éireann regrets the inconvenience that the Boil Water Notice had on customers in Clonmel supplied by the Glenary Water Treatment Plant. I would like to thank them for their patience and support while our drinking water experts worked to lift it as quickly as it was safe to do so.
“I also thank the local political representatives and the media for their assistance in sharing the information during the period of this notice”.
Uisce Éireann reminds customers supplied by the Cordangan Water Treatment Plant in Tipperary Town, the Newport Public Water Supply, the Ardfinnan Regional Water Supply and the Tullohea Public Water Supply that the boil water notices for these supplies remain in place until further notice.
The Uisce Éireann Customer Contact Centre, open 24/7 on freephone 1800 278 278, is available to answer queries in relation to the lifting of this notice. Further information is available on www.water.ie.
