Falcons 'sacked' as new covered reservoir opens in Dublin

Irish Water has opened a new state-of-the-art covered reservoir in Stillorgan in Dublin to ensure a safe, clean and resilient water supply to 200,000 customers.

It replaces one of Europe's last remaining uncovered treated-water reservoirs located there for the past 150 years.

In recent years falcons and other scare-tactics have been used to keep seagulls away from the reservoir but now these practices are no longer required.
