CYBERJAYA: The National Water Services Commission (SPAN) has called on the Selangor government and environmental authorities to investigate all businesses or factories involved in recycling plastic waste, specifically in areas affected by pollution, and all areas deemed as high-risk.

The call follows an inquiry into a water pollution incident in July that resulted in a disruption of water supply for a week in 1,140 areas in Selangor, which sourced water from Sungai Kuang, affecting 1,124,781 consumer accounts.
