Uisce Éireann insists it's not resting on its laurels when it comes to preventing water shortages in Clare. The water utility is urging homes and businesses in this county to be mindful of its usage as the Carron Water Treatment Plant is one of 22 supplies nationwide deemed to be in drought status. A number of methods of conservation are being encouraged such as using a watering can instead of a hose for gardening, not letting the tap run and taking a bath instead of a shower. Uisce Éireann's Asset Operations Lead for Drinking Water in Clare, Darragh Conneely, has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons they're looking into futureproofing water infrastructure here against hot spells such as the one currently being experienced.
