The Boil Water Notice was issued on Friday, 3 October, to protect the health of customers due increased turbidity impacting the treatment process at the Longford Springs Water Treatment Plant.
Ger Greally, Uisce Éireann's Water Network Operations Manager, said: "We understand the inconvenience of a Boil Water Notice, but public health is our number one priority. We appreciate the support of the local community, and we also thank the local media and political representatives who helped us share information during the period of this notice."
