It is believed to have stemmed from pig and frog farm activities, says Department of Environment.
Investigations by the Negeri Sembilan Department of Environment at the site of the oil sludge disposal, which caused river pollution at Kampung Baru Site C in Port Dickson, showed that the possible cause could be the result of pig and frog farm activities at a nearby premises.
“The findings at the MYKK premises found that the complaint was not related to river pollution and samples taken by officials from this department were not greasy and no smell of oil was detected. The samples were sent to the Department of Chemistry Malaysia to identify the actual content of the samples.
“Therefore the DoE recommendation is to constantly monitor the activities on the MYYK premises to prevent activities that could cause pollution to the residents of Kg Baru Site C, Port Dickson.
