Irish Water has said it is not possible to say how long a boil water notice will remain in several parts of Donegal.
The Boil Water Notice (BWN) for the Lettermacaward Public Water Supply was put in place on Friday last, 12 August to protect customers on the network.

A spokesperson said “While it is not possible to indicate how long the BWN will remain in place please be assured that Irish Water’s drinking water compliance and operational experts are working with colleagues in Donegal County Council to resolve the situation with a view to having the notice lifted as quickly as possible.
