Boil water notices lifted in Carrigart, Downings and Cranford after one week
The boil water notices, which were issued on May 1, have been lifted following consultation with the Health Service Executive
Boil water notices that were in place for a week have been lifted with immediate effect on the Carrigart Downings and Cranford Carrigart Downings public water supplies.
The boil water notices, which were issued on May 1, were lifted on Friday following consultation with the Health Service Executive.
Uisce Éireann said customers on these supplies, as well as group water schemes served by these supplies, can resume normal use of their water supply.
The notices were issued due to a mechanical issue at the Carrigart water treatment plant.
Uisce Éireann said its drinking water experts worked hard to lift the notice as quickly and safely as possible. Damien O’Sullivan, Uisce Éireann’s water network operations manager for Co Donegal, thanked the local community for its patience while the notice was in place.
“We understand the inconvenience of a boil water notice, but public health is our number one priority. We appreciate the support of the local community, and we also thank the local media and political representatives who helped us share information during the period of this short notice.”
