Locals in Ballina have been up in arms over the amount of discharge coming from the local waste water treatment plant.
The plant has been operating over capacity for some time, experiencing particularly high traffic during the summer months.

Cllr John Carroll raised the issue at this month’s gathering of the municipal district, he feels that efforts must be made to ensure water quality isn’t affected
