Faecal levels 570 million times higher than safe found in Dublin sinks

A new report has found alarming levels of bacteria are contaminating the sinks and baths of a Dublin flat complex.

The report shows the level of water contamination at Dolphin House flats in Dolphin's Barn is similar to that found in sewage.

Tests on water coming through plugholes and sinks carried out by a team of independent consultants reveal faecal levels 570 million times higher than the safe level for drinking water.
