Air Selangor says agencies are actively working to restore normal service and emergency water supply centres have been set up.
Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd said the Sungai Semenyih water treatment plant will remain closed until the odour pollution has been dispersed.
They confirmed that Indah Water Consortium Sdn Bhd and related agencies such as Lembaga Urus Air Selangor were actively carrying out cleaning work. In a statement by Indah Water yesterday, the company said the closure was not due to sewage treatment operations but due to illegal waste disposal near the plant.
"From the investigation, it was found that it was not sewage odour at the inlet of the plant and due to the odour, the team had to temporarily stop the effluent discharge to enable immediate cleanup operations.
