Work on the new upgraded Cloughmills facility is now underway at the existing facility located just off the Main Street in the village. The upgrade will increase the current capacity at the treatment works and has been designed to cater for a future population of almost 1,900, allowing for current and future development in the area. Neil Brady, Project Manager said: “We are delighted to report that work has started on this project which is excellent news for the Cloughmills area. This investment will improve wastewater facilities for the local population, river water quality and meet NIEA and EU and environmental compliance standards.” Alderman Frank Campbell Mayor of Ballymoney Borough added: “The Council welcome this investment from NI Water in the local area. This is good news for local people, the local environment and the local economy.” Cloughmills Wastewater Treatment Works will be completed in partnership with Biwater Graham, RPS, and MWH. This project is scheduled to be completed by January 2011.
