Sepang Taps Run Dry ( Day 3 ) And Its Over

Finally the water started flow into the tap at 0600hrs but in murky condition. Back in business as usual at 0700hrs. The new filter installed from incoming supply to water boiler quickly became dark after a while. Crowds started to flow in like any other Sunday. Many thanks to SYABAS and their worker who did the repair works non stop although its rain everyday.

As reported by thestar online:-

Water supply to Sepang residents resumes today.

PUTRAJAYA: The 350,000 residents who have had water cuts in the last three days due to damage pipes in Sepang should get their supply restored by today.
As a temporary measure, Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Syabas) will put in an interconnecting pipe to one of the three new alignment pipes to supply water to some 75,000 households in Hulu Langat, Kuala Langat and Sepang.
However, water supply would only be between 40% and 50% and it would take another three days for the supply to be fully restored as the new alignment pipes work to full capacity.
The Thursday morning incident at Kam­pung Revolusi Hijau in Sepang caused damage to three major pipes channelling water to the Semenyih plant and the disruption is believed to be due to illegal sand-mining acti­vities and erosion.
