Up to 50,000 Irish Water customers in the South East put under Boil Water Notices this year

Almost 50 thousand Irish Water customers across the South East have been under boil water notices so far this year.

13 areas across Waterford, Wexford and Tipperary have had problems with their drinking water in the first half of 2022.

The issues are usually to do with insufficient disinfection at treatment plants either because of particularly poor water quality, turbidity or technical problems.

Irish Water says it has plans to replace and refurbish older public drinking water supplies under a long term capital intensive plan.
