The project is part of ongoing works at the plant which are scheduled for completion in Q4 2019. The upgraded water treatment plant will ensure that the water supply is removed from the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Remedial Action List (RAL) and will safeguard the water supply to homes and businesses served by the plant.

The upgrade to the water treatment plant forms part of a wider investment of €19 million in the Drogheda, South Louth and East Meath Water Supply Scheme.
