View answerThe Ballyshannon/Rossnowlagh Regional Water Supply Scheme is included in my Department’s Water Services Investment Programme 2010 – 2013 as a scheme to start during the lifetime of the programme. My Department is awaiting the submission by Donegal County Council of Contract Documents for the scheme. I understand that the Council is reviewing the proposed treatment requirements in the context of the provision of water supplies to serve the West Donegal region.
