Work Continues To Lift Boil Water Notice In Inishturk

Uisce Éireann continuing to work to lift the Boil Water Notice in place for customers on Inishturk.

Following mechanical and treatment process issues at the island's water treatment plant, the Boil Water Notice was put in place to protect the health of approximately 40 customers.

Uisce Éireann's primary focus is and always will be the protection of public health. Monitoring of the supply is continuing and the notice will be reviewed again in the coming days. In the meantime, all customers on the Inishturk supply are advised to boil and cool their water before use until further notice.


Uisce Eireann's Ronan McDonnell thanked the local community for their co-operation and assured them that a team is working to lift the notice as quicky and safely as possible.

"I want to acknowledge the inconvenience that the Boil Water Notice is causing the local community, but public health is Uisce Éireann's number one priority and this notice is in place to protect the health of locals and visitors to Inishturk."
