The boil water notice on the Aughacasla public water supply has been lifted with immediate effect.
It’d been put in place on Tuesday of last week due to inadequate disinfection, as a result of power outages following Storm Barra.
After several days of favourable water quality tests and consultation with the HSE, Irish Water and Kerry County Council says the drinking water can now be consumed as normal.
Irish Water says it acknowledges the impact and inconvenience caused by the boil water notice, but its priority is safe, clean drinking water.
