Mains rehabilitation is a key priority under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2010-2012, a copy of which is available in the Oireachtas Library. The new Programme will build on existing local authority investment in water conservation by providing for a very substantial scaling up of activity on mains rehabilitation. My aim is to increase substantially investment in water conservation to provide for the commencement of contracts with a value of over €300 million over the next three years. The phasing and funding of mains rehabilitation works for each local authority are set out in the published Programme — information regarding the location of those projects may be had from the relevant local authority.
