A total of 472 areas in five Air Selangor regions had experienced unscheduled water supply disruptions, starting from 7am on Saturday, following the temporary shutdown of the Sg Semenyih and Bukit Tampoi water treatment plants.
The odour pollution, which led to the temporary shutdown of the Sg Semenyih and Bukit Tampoi water treatment plants originated from a liquid spill due to an accident involving a lorry carrying perfume essence.
The accident occurred on the northbound side of the Elite Highway near Bandar Serenia in Negri Sembilan, just outside of the Selangor border. – The Vibes, December 27, 2022
