Kilkee’s Supreme Court Wastewater Battle | Ireland News
from Ireland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Kilkee residents and visitors are taking their battle against a controversial wastewater plant to the Supreme Court, after losing a costly High Court challenge. The proposed facility, near the iconic Cliff Walk, faces fierce opposition over fears it’s not true treatment—just a “slurry tank” that pumps untreated sludge into the sea. Campaigners, who raised nearly $100,000 via GoFundMe, accuse Uisce Éireann of contempt, calling the project a threat to public health and local waters, especially a nearby stream used by children. With legal costs potentially doubling if they lose, they’re fighting as underdogs against a powerful state entity, demanding a proper tertiary treatment plant built for Kilkee’s real summer population—not inflated projections.
