: Perbadanan Bekalan Air Pulau Pinang will drawdown the strategic drought reserve of the Expanded Mengkuang Dam if it cannot abstract sufficient raw water from Sungai Muda.
“As of Tuesday , the water level of Sungai Muda at the intake of the Lahar Tiang PBAPP in Seberang Perai dropped to 1.72 metres , which is below the safe level of 2m and yesterday the water level of Sungai Muda dropped to 1.61m at Lahar Tiang. Currently, PBAPP abstracts about 1,200 MLD from Sungai Muda for optimal production of treated water at the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant and the LRA produces 85 per cent of the treated water distributed in Penang daily, he said.
He said as long as PBAPP can abstract 600 MLD of raw water from Sungai Muda and release 600 MLD from EMD it will not cause unscheduled water supply disruptions in the state.
