Unscheduled water disruption to continue in Hulu Langat - Syabas

Consumers in Klang, Shah Alam, Gombak, Petaling and Kuala Lumpur who have been experiencing unscheduled water supply disruptions recently can be assured of continuous supply starting today said Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas).

Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas) Corporate Communication and Public Affairs Department general manager Priscilla Alfred said the disruption was caused by a shortage in treated water from the Sungai Selangor Fasa 3 (SSP3) plant.

However, consumers in Hulu Langat will continue to experience unscheduled water disruption due to low water pressure since the situation cannot be avoided because the supply of treated water from Sungai Semenyih and Sungai Langat water treatment plants could not meet the demands in the areas.

"The two plants cannot increase their production of treated water any further because they are already operating at maximum capacity," she said in a statement today.

Priscilla said Syabas will continue to assist in terms of providing water tankers to the affected areas.
