A Boil Water Notice has been issued for homes in one area of Tuam town this week.
Uisce Eireann has issued a BWN for customers in the Mountpotter area who are served by the Tuam Regional Water Supply Scheme.
The Boil Water Notice was issued after elevated levels of iron were detected in the water supply along this area.
Uisce Eireann has said that the Boil Water Notice does not apply to other areas on the Tuam RWSS.
Water must be boiled for drinking, drinks made with water, preparation of food not cooked prior to eating, infant formula, brushing teeth, or making ice.
However, the water supply is still suitable for hygiene purposes, such as showering and hand-washing.
