Funding for a Preliminary Assessment of Phase I of Kerry County Council's Villages Sewerage Scheme Refurbishment proposals, which includes Tarbert, has been approved under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005-2007.
My Department is awaiting submission of Kerry County Council's report on the Preliminary Assessment. I understand that the Council is also developing a countywide strategy to optimise the delivery of wastewater services to up to 90 towns and villages, including Tarbert. Any proposals emerging from this strategy will be considered by my Department in conjunction with the recommendations of the Preliminary Assessment.
