Water supply to be restored by midnight tonight: Selangor MB

Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari reviews the work of the Tasik Idaman pond in Dengkil transferring water to Sungai Semenyih which has had odour pollution since Saturday. - Bernama: Consumers affected by the water supply disruption in the Klang Valley due to the closure of the Sungai Semenyih Water Treatment Plant are expected to receive water supply by midnight tonight, according to Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

He said 24 million litres of water would be channelled from Tasik Idaman pond in Dengkil to Sungai Semenyih LRA, to ensure that the threshold odour number reading reaches the zero level. “I hope consumers whose supply have been restored not to resort to ‘panic storing’ of water as this will only disrupt the water level in the dam as well as the efforts to reduce the risk of odour contamination,” he told reporters after visiting Tasik Idaman pond, here today.

The Sungai Semenyih plant has been forced to cease operations since Saturday due to the odour pollution incident in Sungai Semenyih, believed to have been caused by irresponsible people disposing illegal waste with solvent odours at the inlet around the Indah Water Konsortium ’s plant located in Bandar Bukit Mahkota.

Following the plant closure, 366 areas with 328,957 consumer accounts in Petaling, Hulu Langat, Kuala Langat and Sepang have been affected.“The state government has also asked the Kajang Municipal Council to limit the access to the area as it has been used twice to dump illegal waste by irresponsible parties. The first time it happened was in September.
