Irish Water and Wexford County Council wishes to notify consumers that following completion of remedial measures and the receipt of satisfactory monitoring results, the boil water notice in place is now lifted with immediate effect.

This decision follows consultation undertaken with the Health Service Executive. Following consultation with the Health Service Executive, Irish Water, working in partnership with Wexford County Council issued a Boil Water Notice for the Sow Regional Public Water Supply on 12/11/2020.
