Penang Water Supply Corporation chief executive officer Datuk Jaseni Maidinsa said five projects under a contingency plan would help support the state’s water needs until 2050.“It was first delayed in 2013 and again in 2018.“During a recent meeting with the Perak Mentri Besar, we told him that we wanted to sign an agreement this year and start the project next year for it to be completed by 2030,” said Jaseni in a press conference at Komtar in George Town, Penang.
Among the plans are to complete two upgrading projects at the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant, build two new water treatment plants near the Mengkuang and Sungai Muda Dams as well as explore Sungai Perai as an additional raw water source. “The water tariff review is part of the business plan but details are confidential until approved,” said Jaseni.
