Following successful commissioning of the new Ennis Water Treatment Plant and consultation between Clare County Council and the HSE Mid West Area, it has been concluded that the HSE / Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) criteria for lifting the partial, precautionary boil water notice have been met. The criteria include water quality, plant commissioning, sustainability of process and epidemiological evidence.
This precautionary boil notice, which has been in place since May 2005, was applicable to Ennis town and surrounding areas, including Clarecastle and environs, Crusheen, Barefield, Doora, Drumcliff and Spancilhill and Group Water Schemes on the supply.
Welcoming the decision to lift the drinking water alert, Mr. Tom Coughlan, Clare County Manager said: "Ennis Town Council and Clare County Council acknowledge the patience, co-operation and assistance of the general public during the period of the boil water notice and greatly regrets any inconvenience caused to householders and the business community."
