THE Water Department is monitoring the supply to the Bakti Ikhlas area of Inanam and one part of Likas, following feedback about the intermittent tap water at these locations.
A proprietor at the former area bemoaned the weak pressure of the incoming supply to his shop. He had to shut his laundrette for close to a week recently as insufficient water was entering the storage tanks for the premises.A Kg Likas homeowner, on the other hand, was without a supply – on and off – over the same period.
He said the agency’s tankers were deployed to deliver treated water twice weekly around Bakti Ikhlas at one point because of this.The necessary adjustments were subsequently made to boost the strength of the supply to the affected consumers, according to him. “Anyone who makes ‘an unlawful connection of a service pipe to a public mains or to another service pipe serving another premises’ can be deemed to have contravened the Water Supply Enactment 2003.”
“They found that water was reaching his meter and that the strength of the supply was acceptable at the time.” The Department had earlier called on the MC to take better care of the internal reticulation for the property, particularly any leakages around the building.
