2,000 homes, businesses and farms in the Carrick on Suir area are facing into another weekend of having to boil water before use.
The boil water notice was issued last November for those served by the Crotty’s Lake supply due to what Uisce Éireann described as operational issues at the water treatment plant.
This takes in all areas South of the River Suir except Friar Street Upper, Corpse Road, Rack Hill, South Quay and Bridge street.
On the north side of the river the areas of Hazel Close, Hawthorn Crescent, Ashgrove, Oak Drive, Beech Avenue, Sycamore Close and Mount Saint Nicholas are included in the area affected by the Boil Water Notice.
However the Boil Water Notice does not apply to Uisce Éireann customers supplied by the Carrick On Suir Linguan Water Supply.
