The scheme to extend the Lough Mask Regional Water Supply from Shrah to Westport and to upgrade the water treatment plant in Tourmakeady is included in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009 to start construction in 2008 at an estimated cost of €21.35m. My Department is awaiting Mayo County Council's tender recommendation for the scheme. Invitation of tenders and the securing of way leaves are matters for the local authority.
