Following a meeting of Limerick County Council’s Crisis Management Team this morning it was decided that, due to some recovery in the level of water in reservoirs, night-time restrictions in service will not generally be necessary tonight 31st December or tomorrow Saturday night 1st January.
Exceptions to this general statement are the supplies at Hospital, Herbertstown, Galbally and Kilfinane, where reservoir levels have failed to recover sufficiently.
It is likely however that widespread night time restrictions may again be necessary from Sunday night.
In addition, due to breakages in water mains, unannounced disruptions to water supply can still be expected during daytime hours pending the repair of such breakages.
Customers should also be aware that those water users located at the extremity of water mains, or in elevated areas, are most likely to experience interruption to supply.
Property owners are again requested to inspect vacant/closed premises and address any leakage issues detected.
Limerick County Council is requesting all water users to continue to conserve water supplies during this recovery period.
Boil water notices continue to apply to the Abbeyfeale, Kilmallock and Newcastle West Water Supply Schemes
