Boil Water Notice Lifted In Midlands Town

Tuesday, 17 December 2019 16:28

Irish Water is thanking the community for their patience and cooperation.

A boil water notice that was in place in Westmeath has been lifted.

Irish Water had issued a warning to all customers on the Castlepollard High Level public water supply, on the 6th of December, to boil their water as a precaution following a mechanical issue at the water treatment plant that resulted in the disinfection process being compromised.

The issue has been resolved and the disinfection process is operating normally.

Irish Water is thanking the community for their patience and cooperation while we worked to resolve this issue and says its priority is the provision of safe, clean drinking water and safeguarding that water supply for the future is a vital focus.

Any customers who have any queries regarding this Boil Water Notice and the lifting of it can contact Irish Water on the customer care helpline 1850 278 278.
