With the population of Wexford increasing over the summer months Uisce Éireann is calling on households across the county to take practical steps to reduce their water consumption and to report any leaks to Uisce Éireann.
As tourists flock to the Model County, the public are being asked to help play their part in protecting essential water supplies for their local communities, and to conserve water where possible.
Speaking of the importance of water conservation this summer Uisce Éireann Water Regional Operations Manager, Jim Fitzgerald told WexfordLocal.com; “Water plays a vital role in our everyday lives, and by making small changes to use only what we need in our homes, gardens, and businesses, we can all contribute to ensuring a sustainable water supply for everyone. We are encouraging people across Wexford to play their part and think water conservation.”
Jim continued: “Water demand always increases with an influx of tourists and visitors. This year more visitors are expected for the Fleadh as people are set to enjoy a week of traditional music and culture. Uisce Éireann would like to thank the Fleadh Committee and Wexford County Chamber for getting behind our Water Conservation Campaign, and to everyone who is playing their part in protecting our valuable resource.”
