Carrignavar School’s Future in Wastewater Limbo | Cork News

A new special school in Carrignavar, County Cork, faces a major setback just days before its planned opening—its wastewater connection is failing to meet critical environmental standards. The school’s completion is no longer enough; the overloaded Carrignavar wastewater plant, long flagged by the EPA and plagued by years of non-compliance, now blocks student admission. Families anxiously await resolution as Uisce Éireann races to upgrade infrastructure under EPA pressure, while legal action looms over river pollution. For children with additional needs, this delay isn’t just bureaucratic—it’s a painful extension of uncertainty in a community already burdened by decade-long environmental neglect.
