AN improvement in water quality at Corbally Baths was noted last year, councillors were told by the local authority.
At the last full meeting of Limerick Council, Social Democrats councillor Shane Hickey-O’Mara asked for an update on water quality at the Corbally Baths.
He was informed by Senior Engineer Aidan Finn that sampling is conducted fortnightly during the bathing season (June 1 to September 15) and has been since May 2019.
“The Bathing Water Regulations require four years of microbiological testing in order to perform an indicative assessment of the water quality. Currently the water quality is of ‘poor’ quality and therefore not satisfying the limits set out. However, an improvement was noted in 2024 compared to previous years,” Mr Finn explained.
