Seven areas around Gombak and Kuala Lumpur are still experiencing unscheduled water supply disruptions and low pressure from the reduction of treated water from Phase 3 Sungai Selangor Water Treatment Plant.

Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (Syabas) in a statement said it was informed by Syarikat Pengeluar Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Splash) that a reduction in the pumping of raw water was due to a drop in the water level at the Sungai Selangor water retention pond on Sept 6.

The affected areas in Gombak include Kampung Lembah Jaya, Lembah Jaya Selatan, Kampung Ampang Indah, Taman Mulia Jaya, Kampung Tasik Permai and Taman Pinggiran Ukay and Taman Shamelin Perkasa in Kuala Lumpur.

According to Syabas, the company and the Selangor state government and all operators involved were striving to ensure the disruption would be overcome soon.

“Syabas will mobilise tanker lorries and static tanks for distribution of emergency water supply to ease difficulties faced by consumers in the areas affected,” said the statement.
