NI Water key staff and contractors are on high alert as Storm Éowyn impacts Northern Ireland.
We are experiencing some interruption to our remote monitoring systems, which is expected in a high wind weather event.  
We are ready to deploy additional staff and resources when it is safe to do so to any of our assets impacted by the storm.  


We're here to ensure you stay informed and supported throughout the storm.

Our Major Incident Response

Several NI Water assets across Northern Ireland have been impacted by the damage created by Storm Éowyn.   

Our major incident team has been tracking the situation since 7:30am, identifying which sites were impacted even while it was too dangerous to physically attend sites.  This means we have been able to prioritise our most vulnerable sites and mobilise our resources quickly once the storm passed. 

Given the scale of the disruption repairs may take a little time to complete; with some dependant on power supply being restored.   During this period, some customers may lose their water supply or experience low water pressure. 

We are also informing our customers that there may be some disruption to normal services i.e. it may take us longer to respond to blocked sewers, etc.
