It comes following renewed rain warnings.
A Westmeath flood defence system is being deployed to help people in the South East of the country.
The aquadams which come from Athlone are being assembled for flood affected households in Wexford.
The operation comes amid renewed rain warnings, with the southeast particularly vulnerable following severe flooding caused by Storm Chandra last week.
The response follows national calls, led by Taoiseach Micheál Martin, for reform of Ireland’s weather warning system to better reflect local flood risks.
OPW Minister and Athlone's Kevin 'Boxer' Moran says this local authority response is saving people's homes:
