Various news outlets (RefFM, C103, independent.ie, …) have been reporting today that a report from the EPA states that Millstreet’s water supply is one of a number of water supplies vulnerable to contamination from Cryptosporidium.
However, put your mind at ease, because this is old news. The drinking water report is from the second quarter of 2017 before the new UV filters were installed. The report states that “Works Complete but need verification of the effectiveness of the action plan”. Verification was completed, and the boil notice for Millstreet was lifted on June 14th.
