Councillor Máirín McGrath spoke today at the Tipperary-Cahir-Cashel municipal district meeting about the need for more waste water treatment plants in the county.
She particularly expressed concerns in regards to the Newcastle area of Tipperary, where she said "A treatment plant would solve a of the water quality issues".
