No official usage restrictions are in place yet.

Approval was granted in recent days.

Currently, Irish Water has an agreement which sees local authorities provide water services on the ground in each county.

Neither county is currently at risk as it is usually the end of summer when water levels in lakes and rivers here deplete.

The HSE has concluded that the levels seen do not represent a threat to public health.

Blockages were the most common complaint.

Repair works are underway.
