Kelantan govt allocates RM11mil to upgrade Merbau Chondong water treatment plant - Izani
KOTA BARU: The Kelantan government has allocated RM11 million to upgrade the Merbau Chondong Water Treatment Plant (LRA) to increase its production capacity from 45 million litres to 70 million litres a day, with the project expected to be completed by January next year.
The Kelantan government has allocated RM11 million to upgrade the Merbau Chondong Water Treatment Plant, with the aim of increasing its production capacity from 45 million litres to 70 million litres per day. The project is expected to be completed by January next year, addressing the increasing demand for water, particularly in Pasir Puteh.
The capacity expansion is necessary to meet the growing water demand, but previous increases in water output had led to turbidity issues due to high levels of iron and magnesium in the raw water source. Additionally, the state government is constructing the Tok Bali LRA with a capacity of 50 million litres per day, currently at 30% progress, with completion expected by late 2028.
This will further increase the supply of treated water in Pasir Puteh, while also allowing the Merbau Chondong plant's supply to be redistributed to other areas.
