A SEWAGE treatment plant in Moville is seriously polluting the river Bredagh, the Environmental Protection Agency said today.
The EPA said half of the country’s water treatment facilities do not meet national or EU standards.
The EPA said the level of performance is poor and needs to improve and further investment is required to change the way these plants are operated and maintained.
The findings highlight the challenges facing the Government, which plans to create a body to take over the provision of water from local authorities as part of its proposals for water charges.
