A Boil Water Notice has been issued for over 1,700 people on the Borrisokane Public Water Supply.
It has been put in place due to the detection of cryptosporidium in the supply.
Experts from Irish Water and Tipperary County Council are working to assess the situation and investigate and implement solutions to lift the notice as quickly as possible.
Cryptosporidium is a tiny parasite found in human and animal waste. If it is swallowed (ingested), it can cause a disease called cryptosporidiosis. The symptoms of cryptosporidiosis include fever, stomach upset, weight loss and diarrhoea. Cryptosporidium may be found in water if it has been contaminated or if there has been a problem with water treatment.
