The Water Services Investment Programme 2010-2012, 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 Roscommon. The Four Roscommon Regional Water Supply Schemes – Arigna, Boyle/Ardcarne, Roscommon Central and South Roscommon Regional Water Supply Scheme are included in the Programme amongst the list of contracts in the county to start in the period 2010 – 2012.

My Department is finalising its examination of Roscommon County Council's Contract Documents for the schemes and a decision will be conveyed to the Council as soon as possible. Once approved, the Council can then proceed to invite tenders for the construction of the schemes.
