Galway water clean, say local bodies

THE water in Galway is now clean and cryptosporidium-free, according to local authorities.

But they are awaiting clearance from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) before lifting the boil notice in the city and county.

Representatives from the county and city councils met with the Health Service Executive (HSE) on Tuesday night and said they are “very close” to announcing the water is safe for human consumption.
