Air Selangor temporarily shuts four treatment plants, water cuts expected in several areas

KUALA LUMPUR: There has been a temporary suspension of four water treatment plants (LRA) due to odour pollution in Sungai Kundang and Sungai Sembah, says Air Selangor.

The treatment plants affected are Rantau Panjang, Sungai Selangor Water Treatment Plant Phase 1, Sungai Selangor Water Treatment Plant Phase 2, and Sungai Selangor Water Treatment Plant Phase 3.

"Following the suspension of the four LRAs, seven areas under Air Selangor – Petaling, Klang, Shah Alam, Gombak, Kuala Lumpur, Hulu Selangor, and Kuala Selangor – have started to experience unscheduled water supply disruption," Air Selangor said in a Facebook post on Tuesday (July 23).

It added that the list of affected areas is being updated and will be announced soon.

Air Selangor said it was doing its best to mitigate the impact on consumers by providing alternative assistance through water tankers, prioritising critical premises.

"Air Selangor will provide progressive updates through all mediums. Consumers can refer to our official communication channels via the Air Selangor application, Facebook, Instagram, and X, or call the Air Selangor contact centre at 15300, or visit www.airselangor.com," it added.
