200 Properties Face Water Disruption
NI Water has confirmed that about 200 properties in the Cookstown area of County Tyrone may experience renewed disruption to their water supply.
The disruption could affect those customers being served directly from Lough Fea Water Treatment Works.
NI Water has blamed "ongoing industrial actions" and said it was "using all resources at its disposal to recharge the system."
"NI Water fully recognises this is a frustrating experience for our customers, and can assure them we are doing everything possible to restore water supplies as quickly as possible," a statement said.
"NI Water remains on high alert with a Major Incident regime in place and we are committed to continued engagement with Trade Unions in an effort to resolve this dispute. The company would stress once more the key demand that pension reform be delayed is not within its gift to provide. It believes dialogue rather than causing disruption represents the best way forward."
