Multiple Boil Water Notices Lifted in Galway

Briain Kelly, 15 Dec

Public Water Supply and the Dunmore/Glenamaddy Public Water Supply in Co

Galway have all been lifted.

Uisce Éireann has confirmed that, following consultation with the Health

Service Executive, customers can now resume normal use of these public

water supplies.

The Boil Water Notices on the Gort, Dunmore/Glenamaddy and Glenamaddy

Public Water Supplies were recently issued due to a deterioration in raw

water quality entering local treatment plants because of heavy rainfall.

The three notices affected the drinking water supply of approximately

6,000 customers in total.

Following satisfactory water sampling, all three Boil Water Notices have

now been lifted.

“Uisce Éireann acknowledges the impact of the notices on customers and

thanks the communities affected for their support while the notices were

in place.”

Uisce Éireann’s primary focus remains the protection of public health and

we worked with our stakeholders to lift the notices as quickly as

possible.”

“We are grateful to customers, elected representatives, and the media for

their assistance in sharing information on the Boil Water Notices.”
