Irish Water has lifted the boil water notice affecting upwards of 600,000 people across Dublin, Meath, and Kildare.
Residents were forced to boil their water for the past eight days, which created problems and inconvenience for many businesses.
Despite the lifting of the notice, Irish Water has warned that the Leixlip Water Treatment Plant at the center of the controversy remains ‘vulnerable’.
The utility has issued an apology for the latest disaster, adding that it will continue to monitor the situation ‘closely.’
