SEREMBAN: The Sungai Linggi water treatment plant, which was shut down for 24 hours on Sunday due to odour pollution, resumed operations at 9am this morning, restoring water supply to 44,828 households in mainly Port Dickson and Seremban.
Syarikat Air Selangor Negri Sembilan Sdn Bhd public relations head Norzita Ismail said the plant’s water quality improved significantly over the last 24 hours, but the company will continue to monitor the situation closely.
The Sg Linggi water treatment plant was shut down on Sunday between 9pm and 9am due to odour pollution, which was the result of heavy rains raising the water level and dragging foul-smelling rubbish and waste into the river.
