AGRICULTURAL POLLUTION UNLIKELY IN CLAIRNBRIDGE

Date Published: 12-Nov-2007

It's unlikely Agricultural pollution is the source of the water contamination in Clairnbrige.The news comes as the boil water notice continues for a second week in the area after traces of Cryptospridium were found in the water supply last Friday.Investigations are ongoing to find the exact type of Cryptospridium that is polluting the water.Director of services for Galway county council Jim Cullen says it would be unfair to blame farmers when there is no obvious sign of agricultural pollution
