ISU
1. Keperluan sistem pembetungan tidak dipatuhi
sepenuhnya semasa mengemukakan
permohonan.
2. Ulasan yang dikeluarkan tidak dipinda semasa
permohonan- semula.
3. Kedudukan logi tidak mengambilkira kesesuaian
berdasarkan kriteria teknikal, persekitaran dan
sensitiviti penduduk berdekatan.
4. Pembinaan sistem pembetungan tidak
mengikut pelan yang diluluskan.
5. Memastikan agar jururunding yang
berkelayakan dibenarkan mengemukakan
permohonan sistem pembetungan.

WSIA 2006

Section 47 - the developer to hand over sewerage system

of new development to Service Licensee:
Developer of new development & within service area
upon issuance of CC by the QP, handover the sewerage
system to SL .
SL shall accept the sewerage system after SL is satisfied
that the system meet requirement set out in approved
plans, specification and standards.
Upon Hand-over, SL to operate & maintain.
Owner of the land to provide access for O&M.

CONCLUSION
Wastewater engineering is a specialised field,

proper engineering experience and exposures.

Structured long-term technical training is essential

local sewerage industry.

Engineers to keep abreast with changes and

challenges.
