The utility says it’s hopeful that the situation could be resolved before the end of the year.
A suitable new source has been found after detailed studies of local groundwater and exploratory drilling.
Work to connect this new borehole to the Cordangan Water Treatment Plant is underway and due to be completed in December.
Once connected Uisce Eireann says extensive sampling will be needed before the Boil Water Notice can be safely lifted.
