EPA Warns Current Arrangements For The Safe Delivery Of Drinking Water Aren't Working

The Environmental Protection Agency says the public's health is being put at risk by the current drinking water arrangements.

It will appear before an Oireachtas committee today to discuss the recent failures at the Gorey and Ballymore Eustace plants. The watchdog will say it has discovered similar incidents around the country recently, with a delay in notifying health officials of problems.
The EPA will call for immediate improvement by Irish Water and local authorities
