The Milltownpass sewerage scheme has been approved for funding in the Department's water services investment programme 2004-06 under the rural towns and villages initiative at an estimated cost of €4.28 million. The Department approved Westmeath County Council's proposal to appoint a client's representative to prepare contract documents for the scheme in June 2005 and the Department is awaiting submission of the contract documents by the council.
