The north-east Roscommon water, augmentation scheme is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2005-2007 as a scheme to commence construction this year. The west Roscommon regional water supply scheme, which will serve north Roscommon, is approved in the programme to advance through planning.
Roscommon County Council's preliminary report for the north-east Roscommon scheme, received earlier this week, is under examination in my Department and is being dealt with as quickly as possible. Following approval of the preliminary report the Council will be in a position to proceed with the preparation of contract documents. The council's brief for the appointment of consultants to prepare a design review report for the west Roscommon scheme has been approved by the Department and it is now a matter for the council to proceed with the report.
