Water Services

The Water Services Section ensures the provision and maintenance of adequate water supplies, wastewater treatment and disposal facilities to meet current needs. To provide for existing infrastructure gaps and future needs, we also undertake Capital Projects throughout the County through funding made available under the Water Services Investment Programme.  Under the Rural Water Programme which include Group Water Schemes a number of minor improvement works are being carried out. 

Water Services provides support to the Planning Department and consults with the public on planning issues relating to Water Planning Guidelines.

We are also responsible for the upkeep and improvements of Cemeteries

Information on Water Conservation, Water Charges, Water Quailty and Wastewater Discharges is also available from this section of the website.

Water Forms are available to download.

The management of operations and maintenance is divided into three geographical areas, each managed by its own operations section. Queries should be addressed to the appropriate office.

For operational issues contact the appropriate Area Office, for planning and all other queries please contact head office.
