The situation of Sungai Air Terjun before flood mitigation work was implemented.

THE Penang government has refuted allegations by the Socialist Progressive Front (SPF) party that flood mitigation and conservation works at Sungai Air Terjun would increase the risk of soil erosion and destroy the environment.

State public works, utilities and flood mitigation committee chairman Zairil Khir Johari said work currently being carried out at Sungai Air Terjun is to minimise flood risk in the area.
