KEJADIAN DI SUNGAI PERAI
Satu kejadian mengejut telah berlaku di Sungai Perai. PBAPP telah mengesan kebocoran besar secara mendadak pada bahagian saluran paip bawah permukaan air 1,350mm. PBAPP sedang berusaha untuk mengepam air melalui saluran paip pada aliran minimum. Langkah ini mungkin akan membawa kepada gangguan bekalan air kepada kira-kira 200,000 pengguna di Daerah Barat Daya (Daerah Barat Daya atau DBD) di Pulau Pinang dan beberapa kawasan di Seberang Perai. Sila ambil perhatian bahawa ini adalah "kejadian mendadak" dan bukan gangguan bekalan air berjadual yang dilakukan oleh PBAPP. PBAPP telah mengaktifkan pelan respons kecemasannya. Kami akan menyiarkan kemas kini sewajarnya.
Terima kasih.

MISHAP AT SUNGAI PERAI
A sudden mishap has occurred at Sungai Perai. PBAPP has detected a sudden major leak on the 1,350mm underwater pipeline section. PBAPP is striving to pump water through the pipeline at minimal flow.

This exercise is likely to lead towards a water supply disruption for about 200,000 consumers in the South-West District (Daerah Barat Daya or DBD) on Penang Island and some areas in Seberang Perai.

Please note that this is a “sudden mishap” and not a scheduled water supply interruption initiated by PBAPP.* PBAPP has activated its emergency response plan. We will post updates accordingly.
Thank You.
