SHAH ALAM, Aug 11 — The Langat 2 water treatment plant is expected to resume its operations at 3.30pm today and begin the raw water treatment process, says Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Air Selangor).
In a statement, Air Selangor said water supply will be restored to the affected consumers in stages once the water supply distribution system has been stabilised.
“Water tankers will be mobilised to the consumers and priority will be given to critical premises. Air Selangor is trying our best to minimise the disruption impact to affected consumers,” the statement read.
The Langat 2 water treatment plant was temporarily shutdown at 4.30am today due to a chemical pollution incident at Sungai Semantan, Pahang.
The contamination was caused by an accident at KM75.9 on the Karak-Bentong Highway heading towards Kuala Lumpur, yesterday.
Following that, a total of 397 areas in Petaling, Kuala Lumpur and Hulu Langat experienced unscheduled water supply disruption from 10am today
Consumers can obtain information on scheduled water supply disruptions from time to time through Air Selangor’s official communication channels including the Air Selangor app, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, or contact Air Selangor at 15300.
Questions and complaints can be submitted to the Help Centre on the website www.airselangor.com and the Air Selangor app.
