Following consultation with the Health Service Executive, Irish Water and Westmeath County Council can confirm that the Boil Water Notice in place for all customers on the Castlepollard High Level public water supply, since December 31 has been lifted with immediate effect.

The Boil Water Notice was been put in place as a precaution following a failure at the water treatment plant that resulted in the disinfection process being compromised.

Irish Water’s drinking water compliance and operational experts worked with colleagues in Westmeath County Council to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

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

Irish Water acknowledges the impact and inconvenience caused by this Boil Water Notice to homes and businesses.
