The Water Services Investment Programme 2010 â 2012 , a copy of which is available in the Oireachtas Library, provides for the development of a comprehensive range of new water services infrastructure in County Kerry. The Waterville water and sewerage scheme (Design/Build/Operate Contract) is included in the programme amongst the list of contracts in the county to start in the period 2010 â 2012.
Work on the water distribution and sewer network contract for Waterville is substantially completed. In December 2010 my Department advised Kerry County Council that funding is available to allow it award the contract for the Waterville Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants Design/Build/Operate contract, at a cost of â¬8.67 million. The contract will be funded on a shared basis between my Department and Kerry County Council.

The Kilcummin sewerage scheme is included in the 2010 â 2012 programme as a scheme at planning. In view of the high unit cost of providing the scheme, Kerry County Council has been asked to review its scope before the council can be given approval to prepare contract documents for the work.
