Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Citizens' Assembly Report on Biodiversity Loss: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Fintan Towey:
Capacity in wastewater treatment is acknowledged as an issue. There are instances where the groundwater feeding into the system puts the overall capacity under pressure. How they can be separated where it is appropriate is being looked at. It may not always be the right solution but it is certainly being looked at to ensure the overall effect in terms of the discharge into the environment is not problematic. I will ask my colleague to comment further.
