The Sewage Treatment Plant in Oughterard, Co Galway, has been identified by 
an
RTÉ investigation as a source of the Cryptosporidium outbreak on Lough 
Corrib.
Residents of Galway city and county have, according to this story, been 
living
with a boil order on their water for three weeks while engineers work to 
provide
an alternative supply.
Testing conducted by the RTÉ Radio Investigative Unit on the waters in Lough
Corrib show how the Oughterard plant is a continuing source of the
Cryptosporidium infection.
