According to the MB, the state is evaluating the costs incurred.

The Selangor government will recover the cost of damages from the developer of the Banting-Taiping West Coast Expressway project, after three main pipes burst near the construction site, disrupting water supply to Klang since last Saturday.

Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari said the state government is evaluating the costs incurred as result of the incident. “During the disruption, our priority is to ensure that water supply is restored but unfortunately water is still leaking from the pipes and we have no alternative but to fix it. “We are now evaluating the cost we had to bear and are ready to claim from the developer who caused the disruption for several days,” he told reporters after the launch of the Affordable Housing Policy in Elmina Central Park in Shah Alam, today.He said Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd is working around the clock to carry out pipe repair works in areas that are still experiencing disruptions and expect the problem to be fully resolved by tomorrow.
