Uisce Éireann has issued a Boil Water Notice for 4,400 customers supplied by Castlerea Public Water Supply in Co Roscommon.
Following recent heavy rainfall, the BWN is being issued due to increased turbidity impacting the treatment process at the Longford Springs water treatment plant.
Customers can check if their property is included by visiting the Water Quality section of www.water.ie and entering the property’s Eircode or by calling the Uisce Éireann’s customer care helpline, open 24/7, on 1800 278 278.
Drinking water experts from Uisce Éireann are working to rectify the turbidity issues and lift the notice as quickly and as safely as possible, in consultation with the HSE. In the meantime, all customers on these supplies are advised to boil water before use until further notice.
