DURING the spell of fine weather promised for this June bank holiday weekend, ESB are reminding the general public of the dangers and potentially serious consequences of swimming in any ESB reservoir.
These areas are not appropriate for swimming because of the risk of deep and fast-flowing waters, changing water levels and uneven ground.
These waters include the reservoirs at Lough Dunlewey in County Donegal, Poulaphouca in County Wicklow, Golden Falls and Leixlip in County Kildare, Inniscarra and Carrigadrohid in County Cork, the Ardnacrusha headrace and tailrace canal in County Clare and Assaroe, Lough Nacung.
