Water harvesting in planning as effects of drought still felt

As the effects of the drought continue to be felt, a senior council engineer said two supplies in North Cork will continue to be augmented by water tankers, with one in Araglin, on the Cork/Waterford border, likely to see this occurring for the next two months.
Pat Walsh, a senior executive engineer with the council’s water services department, said in general the council was using reserves in many parts of the region and are appealing to the public to conserve as much water as possible.
