The Killygordon/Crossroads Sewerage Scheme was one of a bundle of sewerage schemes ranked as sixth priority on the list of water and sewerage schemes submitted by Donegal County Council in response to my Department's request to all local authorities in 2006 to undertake assessments of needs for capital works in their areas and to prioritise their proposals on the basis of these assessments. The assessments were taken into account in the preparation of my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009 which was published in September 2007 and is available in the Oireachtas Library. Given the level of competing demand for the available funding and the priorities identified by the elected members of Donegal County Council, it was not possible to include the Killygordon/Crossroads scheme in the current Programme.
