Pattaya is most likely to experience water lacks next year as levels in 5 significant tanks in Chon Buri have actually dropped dramatically to just around 32% of capability.
The Provincial Water supply Authority’s (PWA) branch in Pattaya is preparing to pipeline raw water from the PWA-run Nong Palai water production center in Rayong to the seaside city, purchase some more from a personal water provider and decrease faucet water products to homeowners, workplace supervisor Suthat Nutpan stated on Wednesday.
At present, there is less than 13 million cubic metres of water in the 5 tanks, compared to 36.7 million cu/m in 2015.
This will cause dry spell in Pattaya if there are no storms next month, Mr Suthat stated, including the scenario will be more extreme than the water lack in 2015.
