The Commissioners have recently met with Senior Members of the Water and Sewerage Authority in regard to the proposals for IRIS in Maughold. The proposals will mean that emissions into both watercourses and out to the sea will be within be much cleaner. The Commissioners were advised that the emissions would meet EU Standards.
The Commissioners have worked closely with officers from government to ensure that residents concerns are taken into consideration as the new facilities are designed and implemented. The majority of the facilities will be installed underground and will have minimal visual impact.
The Commissioners encourage all residents to contact them for full details of the proposals.
It is expected that public meetings will take place in Maughold Village and in the Dhoon Hall in early November. Full details to be confirmed.
The Commissioners thank Mr Crookall MHK, Chairman of the Water and Sewerage Authority, and Mr Winstanley, Director of Drainage, for bringing their team of Senior Officers and Consultants to Maughold to brief them on progress.
