The Environmental Protection Agency has said the slow pace of delivery of wastewater treatment upgrades by Uisce Éireann is ‘unacceptable’.

The criticism comes off the back of their Urban Wastewater Treatment report published this morning, which highlights that 16 towns and villages across the country discharge raw sewage daily because their public sewers are not connected to treatment plants.

Kieran is joined by Michael Tinsley, Uisce Éireann’s Senior Wastewater Delivery Manager, to discuss.
