Accepted Answer

Pahang Districts with Offline Water Treatment Plants Due to Flooding

Seventeen water treatment plants remain shut down across seven districts in Pahang following severe flooding. These districts are Raub, Lipis, Maran, Bentong, Bera, Jerantut, and Temerloh. The shutdowns are attributed to rising river levels and power outages impacting the facilities.
Affected Districts Identified

The water treatment plants that are currently non-operational are located in the districts of Raub, Lipis, Maran, Bentong, Bera, Jerantut, and Temerloh. These seven districts are experiencing disruptions to their water supply infrastructure as a direct consequence of the ongoing flood situation.
Causes for Shutdown

The primary reasons cited for the continued closure of these water treatment plants are the significant increase in river water levels and the widespread power disruptions. These conditions prevent the safe and effective operation of the treatment facilities.
Status of Other Plants

While 17 plants remain offline, a total of 26 water treatment plants were initially impacted by the floods. Of these, nine have since resumed operations as of 11 am today, indicating a gradual restoration of services in some areas.
Mitigation Efforts Underway

Pengurusan Air Pahang Bhd (PAIP) has initiated measures to address the situation, including deploying water tankers to affected areas, particularly to temporary flood relief centres. Additional water tankers have also been secured through the National Water Services Commission (SPAN) from various states, including Johor, Negri Sembilan, Selangor, Perak, Kedah, and Penang.
