[ThrillSpeed]

They are complaining to the current construction site along orchard area.

[Newbie]

nnb, they will blame construction for the dirty water from site flowing into sewerage.
cause blockage to the sew system.

But they already reinforced on having ECM systems on site. which cost a bomb!

================

Low tide. and yet flooding occurs. so, what happened?

[zuoom]

Heavy and intense rain fell over many parts of central Singapore in the early morning today.

About 100mm of rain fell between 8am to 11am, with two peaks at 9.30am and 10.30am.

The amount of rain recorded was approximately more than 60% of the average monthly rainfall for June (average rainfall for June is 162m).

When the rain first started at about 8.00am, PUB mobilised contractors and staff to be on standby at hotspots including Cuscaden Road, Wilby Road, Jalan Haji Alias and Little India which were likely to flood.

At about 9.15am, PUB alerted Traffic Police when the rain intensified. PUB officers and contractor rendered assistance to motorists, residents and premise owners at affected locations.

At the Upper Bukit Timah area, our men operated the flood gate and this helped to mitigate flooding in that area. PUB also sent sms alerts to the management of condominiums located in the area when the water level sensor reached 75% at about 9.30am.

A second more intense storm fell over the central part of Singapore at about 10.30am. The worst-hit was the Orchard Road/ Scotts Road intersection, where the flood waters reached a depth of 300mm.

The waters subsided within one hour, at about 11.30am.

The last known major flooding at the Orchard Road/Scotts Road junction was in 1984. PUB is investigating the cause of the flooding at Orchard Road. Investigations can only be carried out when the water level in the drains have fully subsided. In the meantime, PUB officers and contractors are clearing up the debris on the roads as well as assisting premise owners to pump out water from their basements.

PUB advises the public to exercise caution as flash floods may still occur in the event of heavy storms. The cause of the flood is still being investigated.

The public can obtain the latest weather reports, including heavy rain warnings, by tuning in to radio broadcasts, calling NEA’s weather forecast hotline at 6542 7788, visiting the NEA website at NEA corporate website or accessing the mobile weather service (Weather@SG – weather.nea.gov.sg).

The public can also call PUB’s 24-hour Call Centre at 1800-284 6600 to report obstructions in drains or to check the flood situation.

About PUB

PUB is a statutory board under the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources. It is the water agency that manages Singapore’s water supply, water catchment and used water in an integrated way. PUB won the 2007 Stockholm Industry Water Award and was named Water Agency of the Year at the Global Water Awards 2006.

About PUB tagline: Water for All: Conserve, Value, Enjoy
PUB has ensured a diversified and sustainable supply of water for Singapore with the Four National Taps (local catchment water, imported water, NEWater, desalinated water).

To provide water for all, PUB calls on all Singaporeans to play our part to conserve water, keep our water catchments and waterways clean and build a relationship with water so we can enjoy our water resources. We can then have enough water for all uses – for industry, for living, for life.

and Mr. Brown on the most recent flooding.

These are extraordinary situations and times and we need an extraordinary Minister like Environment Minister Yaacob to devise solutions to address these issues.
 
He is the most expensive Environment Minister in the world so I hope reasons like debris and litter not cleared at canals can longer be used.
 
These issues are so basic and is his bread & butter as Environment Minister.
 
Not to mention Food Poisoning issues.
 
Btw, why didn't NEA ensure litter and debris not cleared at Orchard Road??
 
If it is not PUB's fault, then it must be NEA's fault.
 
Is he trying to say Singapore streets are dirty and full of litter ??

PUB caught off guard everywhere today
 

 
 
The Minister of Freak Floods may be very busy today. Hold all appointments please. Please don't blame PUB, the poor things. Like last time, they must have been caught off guard by these floods today too.
