New report
Over 30 towns and villages are still releasing raw sewage into the environment every day because they do not have treatment plants
That's according to a new report by the Environmental Protection Agency
Last year, the EPA prosecuted Irish Water for failing to take appropriate action in response to equipment failures at a pump station near Naas, which had resulted in the release of raw sewage into the River Liffey.
The report found 12 large towns and cities did not meet wastewater treatment standards that have been set by the European Union, to protect the environment.
These areas generate half of Ireland's wastewater.
