MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, March 28, 2017

QUESTION NO. 20

QUESTION: Councillor P. Gogarty

"To ask the Chief Executive for a progress report on upgrading mains sewage for three houses listed in Tubber Lane (Ref membersrep 1218451), especially with potential opportunities provided by housing works now commencing in Tubbermaclug nearby, as residents had a phone call from the Council in November but have heard nothing since; and if a statement can be made on the matter?"

REPLY:

Irish Water have established a Local Representatives Service Desk which is committed to giving speedy responses to Elected Officials. This Service Desk can be contacted at localrepsupport@water.ie or at 1890 178 178

As this query relates to the foul network, it should be directed to the Irish Water Public Representative System for reply. Irish Water would then need to do a feasibilty study to determine if levels would allow for the connection of  these dwellings to the existing 225mm diameter gravity foul sewer on Tubber Lane. It would be helpful if you could include in your request a map showing the location of the houses concerned.

Alternatively the customers can submit a Pre-Connection Enquiry directly to Irish Water for consideration. Details can be found on the Irish Water website https://www.water.ie/connections/ or by email at newconnections@water.ie
