PETALING JAYA: Three dams in Johor, which supply raw water to treatment plants that serve about one million people in the state, are below the critical mark.
This comes about as the hot weather dries up parts of the country despite the occasional thunderstorms in other areas.
The Sultan Iskandar plant treats water for 600,000 residents in Pasir Gudang and the eastern part of Johor Baru, specifically Johor Jaya, Bandar Seri Alam and Permas Jaya. The commission said the water operator, Ranhill SAJ, started a scheduled water supply programme on March 21 which ended on Friday for 6,041 households and premises.
The Air Itam is the water source for Penang’s Air Itam township, Paya Terubong valley and surrounding areas.
