However, people supplied by the Glenary public water supply, which includes parts of Clonmel town centre and surrounding areas including Cashel Road, Cahir Road and Ring Road; and the Kilcomma/Finger Post areas in Co Waterford are advised to continue to boil their water before consuming until further notice.
Meanwhile, a precautionary boil water notice which was affecting close to 21,000 people in east Cork has been lifted. The notice came into effect earlier this week to protect the health of almost 21,000 people supplied by the Glashaboy plant in Cork. Lifting of the notice followed consultation with the HSE.
Uisce Éireann head of water operations Margaret Attridge acknowledged the impact of the notice and thanked the local communities affected in Cork. “Uisce Éireann’s primary focus remains the protection of public health. Due to the strike action arising from a dispute between the Unite trade union and seven local authorities, Uisce Éireann had no choice but to put this boil water notice in place to protect public health.
The Uisce Éireann customer contact centre, open 24/7 on freephone 1800-278278, is available to answer queries in relation to the lifting of this notice. Further information is available at
