The Ennis Clarecastle sewerage scheme, also referred to as the Ennis main drainage project, is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2003-2005 to start construction in 2005. Further consideration of the revised preliminary report received for this scheme must await a decision by An Bord Pleanála on the environmental impact statement for the scheme.
The Ennis town water supply treatment scheme is included in the investment programme to start construction in 2004. I understand that Ennis Town Council is currently proceeding with the shortlisting of contractors for this design/build/operate scheme and that it will submit the tender documents for my Department's approval in the near future.
