KUALA LUMPUR: Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Air Selangor) is rushing to resolve the unscheduled water supply cut as consumers have started voicing their frustration at having to face this problem on the eve of Christmas.
Many of them urged the authority to resume supply as soon as possible as the water cut has put a damper on their preparations for Christmas celebrations.
Air Selangor has mobilised 85 water tankers to some of the affected areas to provide water following odour pollution detected at the Jenderam Hilir Raw Water Pump Station involving the Sungai Semenyih and Bukit Tampoi water treatment plants (LRAs).
Air Selangor said in a statement that priority was being given to critical premises such as hospitals, clinics, dialysis centres and houses where funerals were being conducted.
A total of 472 areas in five regions managed by Air Selangor experienced unscheduled water supply disruption beginning at 7am following the temporary closure of the two LRAs.
They involve Petaling (172 areas), Hulu Langat (54), Sepang (196), Putrajaya (23) and Kuala Langat (27).
Air Selangor said it was also conducting sampling tests regularly to measure the quality of water affected by the pollution.
“A collective effort to deal with the pollution incident is being carried out by Air Selangor, the Selangor Water Management Board, the National Water Services Commission, and the Department of Environment so that the Sungai Semenyih LRA and the Bukit Tampoi LRA can resume operations as soon as possible.
“Air Selangor will inform of developments related to this incident from time to time through all mediums, especially the mass media,” Bernama reported Air Selangor as saying.
