416

Uisce Eireann expects work now underway to upgrade the Water Treatment Plant in Goatenbridge to be completed by Spring 2025.

The plant provides water for almost 12,000 customers in Ardfinnan, Newcastle, Cahir and surrounding areas.

The work involves the installation of new chambers and mixers, the upgrade of existing chemical dosing systems and storage, new and upgraded filter controls, new sludge storage and treatment facilities, the replacement of existing electrical panels and the installation of a new generator.

The project is estimated to cost €10M.

The supply in Ardfinnan is presently under a Boil Water Notice due to issues with the quality of the raw water available to the Water Treatment Plant.
