The Gweedore Sewerage Scheme, which will serve Dore, Bunbeg and Derrybeg, and the Killybegs and Bundoran Sewerage Schemes are approved for funding under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005-2007.

My Department is awaiting confirmation from Donegal County Council that land and wayleave acquisition has been completed to facilitate consideration of the Council's Tender Documents for the Gweedore scheme. I approved the Council's Preliminary Report for the Killybegs Scheme in November 2006. The Preliminary Report for the Bundoran Scheme is under examination in my Department and is being dealt with as quickly as possible.
