Water Supply Project Clinic in Killaloo
A community water supply project clinic will be held in Killaloo on Wednesday 17 June from 5 pm to 7 pm. Residents are invited to meet the Community Liaison Officer and hear about the Eastern and Midlands Region project, which is part of a wider effort to keep local water supplies secure.
The event comes at a time when Uisce Éireann has urged households across Ireland to conserve water as demand can rise sharply during hot spells. The utility noted that during last month’s heat wave usage in the Greater Dublin Area peaked at 685 million litres in a single day, an increase it described as “unsustainable”. It also highlighted that nearly one‑third of Irish adults admit they pay little attention to water conservation.
While the clinic will focus on local issues, attendees can expect information about how the Eastern and Midlands Region project fits into national plans for resilience and capacity. The session is intended to give residents a clearer picture of where their water comes from and what steps can be taken at home to reduce consumption.
