The staff toilets and public toilets at Cahir Castle and the staff toilets at the Rock of Cashel are connected to the local municipal sewers. The public toilets at the Rock of Cashel are operated by Cashel Town Council.

With regard to the other heritage sites in the care of the Office of Public Works, where staff toilets or public toilets are provided, they are connected to the relevant local authority sewerage system or have treatment systems installed. A survey of the existing facilities and their requirements under the current legislative framework is in progress.
