The Boil Water Notice on the Glenties - Ardara Public Water Supply has been lifted with immediate effect.

Uisce Éireann can confirm that, following consultation with the Health Service Executive, customers on this supply can now resume normal use of the public water supply.

The notice was issued due to increased raw water turbidity impacting the treatment process at the water treatment plant as a result of Storm Darragh two weeks ago.

Drinking water experts from Uisce Éireann worked to lift the notice as quickly and as safely as possible. Following satisfactory water sampling results, the notice has now been lifted.
