Boil water notice in place in areas of Waterford ‘until further notice’
Customers are advised to continue to boil their water before use.
Uisce Éireann issued a reminder earlier today to customers supplied by the Ballymacarbry Public Water Supply and Poulavonogue Public Water Supply in County Waterford that Boil Water Notices will remain in place until further notice.
The Boil Water Notice for the Poulavonogue Public Water Supply has since been lifted, however the notice for the Ballymacarbry supply remains active.
Customers are advised to continue to boil their water before use while Uisce Éireann are working to rectify the issues. Customers are reminded that the water is safe to consume once boiled.
Uisce Éireann’s Maura Phelan said: “We acknowledge the impact this is having on the communities and we are working to resolve the issues at both supplies. Public health is our number one priority, and we will continue to monitor the supplies and will seek to lift both notices as soon as it is safe.”
Customers can check if their property is included by entering the property’s Eircode at www.water.ie or by calling the Uisce Éireann customer care helpline, open 24/7, on 1800 278 278.
A further statement from Uisce Eireann says: “Uisce Éireann is working to address the issues so that the notices can be lifted quickly and safely."
