Clareville Water TreatmentPlant Presented by Trevor Higgins DBO Contract: Veolia Water
Introduction Limerick City's water treatment plant at Clareville is located on the banks of the Shannon near Castleconnell.
Background • First phase of the treatment complex was completed in the 1890's and utilized the Shannon as a source of both raw water and power
Second Phase • The second phase came at the end of the 1920's when the pumping arrangement had to give way because of a more spectacular development on the other side of the river.
Latest Phase • In 1951, a further extension was completed increasing the capacity to 3.6 Million gallons/day (16,000m3/day) to cater for the growing demands of the city
Public Private Partnership The DBO option was preferred for Clareville Water Treatment Plant and a contractor has been in operation on the site since 2007. The upgrading of the Plant was officially opened on 25th June 2010. For Further information please read the attached brochure
