Water Conservation Order takes effect for Milford Water Supply

A HOSEPIPE ban is now in place for the Milford Regional Public Water Supply and will remain in place for the next six weeks.

The Water Conservation Order has been issued in a bid to safeguard water supplies for essential purposes.

The order only applies to customers supplied by the public water supply in Milford, Kerrykeel and Ramelton.

The implementation of this order follows a long period of dry weather combined with a large increase in demand.

As a result of which, water supplies at Lough Colmcille, the areas water source, have come under severe stress.

It is essential that a Water Conservation Order is introduced now on the Milford Regional Public Water Supply to reduce the potential of restrictions and outages over the coming weeks and months.
