Clare County Council rejects Uisce Éireann's wastewater treatment plant plan in Kilkee over visual impact and primary treatment concerns.

Clare County Council has rejected Uisce Éireann's planning application for a wastewater treatment plant in Kilkee, Ireland, citing concerns over visual impact and landscape character. Locals objected to the proposed site on Dunlicky Rd and the plan's reliance on only primary wastewater treatment. Despite the company’s claim that the project would improve water quality in Intrinsic Bay, Uisce Éireann is now reconsidering its strategy to address untreated wastewater discharges.
