QUOTE(TruboXL @ Jan 25 2024, 02:30 PM) Honestly plan B should have done no matter plan A works or not Maybe PBA shouldn't have label as Plan A Plan B but Plan Apple and Plan Oranges as many people will be confused as A, B denote sequence. But then oranges may trigger R&R issues. FYI Plan B already jalan 2 week ago.

QUOTE(Burningsunz @ Jan 25 2024, 04:44 PM) On the night when we isolate sg perai pba did valve throttling to all the reservoir on island thats why some area not effected also got low pressure or no water for a couple of hours. Now the storage at bukit dumbar already reach safe level to be pumped out to green lane and relau side. Butt of course if people use more water then storage deplete then water will cut off again to allow the storage to be fill up to a safe level before can release. As for some in sg ara, batu maung and balik pulau still need to rely tanker. Hopefully clamping work can be completed tonight Dark storm clouds spotted in Bworth. Hopefully no hamper Sungai Perai repairs works!

QUOTE(gaman @ Jan 26 2024, 08:42 AM) Any reason why that stretch of water main was installed underwater? Technically difficulty? Cost saving? If they able to clamp the broken pipe which means the pipe itself is not buried in soil but just underwater level? Think this pipe was done before many of us were born. Maybe Burningsunz can correct me and give some insight.

QUOTE(touristking @ Jan 26 2024, 09:05 AM) Have you come across a government that deliberately deny the people clean water? Penang and Selangor both have the money but refuses to do any advanced water planning. Damn! Talk about shooting your own foot awal pagi!

QUOTE(mushigen @ Jan 26 2024, 09:21 AM) I'm afraid I am with him this time. Think about it: 1) whole of DBD including the all important FTZ only depends on one WTP(from mainland some more) and one pipeline. Has PBA announced any backup plan? 2) undersea pipelines: any plan to run parallel/spare lines along first bridge in case the undersea line leaks? 3) 1350mm line leaks and they did not mention when it was last inspected and its mean time between failures (MTBF). What other potential failures should we expect to bite us in the ass suddenly? I get it that they inherit this legacy but a government cannot keep using "oh, we inherited it" as justification for doing nothing. If they already have a plan, announce it for goodness sake. All these water interruptions will have impact on manufacturing industry and investor's confidence. Does this only apply to Penang & Selangor? Other states other rules, different goal post?

QUOTE(talexeh @ Jan 28 2024, 03:47 PM) I think that's normal, considering the fact that a lot of people in DBD just got their supply back so they'll all be storing water for this coming Mondays's disruption, clearing their pile of laundry & whatnots.  so delay the water disruption to Tues for ppl to store, clear pile of laundry & wat not.

QUOTE(bass4focus @ Feb 1 2024, 06:36 AM) My place water supply was uninterrupted as in previous incidents of pipe burst. Probably due to our pump house located on lower ground. Based on the feedback so far, looks like everyone is on their way to getting back their water supply. Happily, I admit I was retarded to worry at all.😄  Glad to hear that your water supply is normalise.

QUOTE(nasiputih @ Sep 30 2024, 05:00 PM) Did they complete the new permanent pipes over the river? Yes. Recently pipe burst near Politeknik Seberang Perai was due to negligence by 3rd party contractors. Hopefully PBA will sue the principal & recover the cost.
