I think Singapore can move away from buying water from malaysia soon.. Don't be too happy first. These 2 reservoirs are created by daming up the rivers that flows out to the Straits of Johor. Another words during another "freak" weather, we may see flooding somewhere, probably in the northeast region when storm water could not leave.

Another words during another "freak" weather, we may see flooding somewhere, probably in the northeast region when storm water could not leave. I got email PUB about my thoughts on how to solve flooding.. Here is my thoughts.. I was thinking is it possible to build some hole opening on top half of the canel to deep sewage system (in flood prone areas).. meaning when water level reach certain height, some of the water can than be diverted to deep sewage system, where some of the sewage water gets treated and become newwater anyway. I do not know is it feasible or substainable. I feel if it is possibe than it will be a breakthrough to solve flooding problem in future..

Yewheng Twincharged July 4, 2011 Author Share July 4, 2011 I thought sewage water cannot mix with any other water? It is too contaminated. I mean as my suggestion.. I do not know whether is it feasible.. If it can be done will be good ma.. If water level too high, some of the canal water will be able to flow to deep tunnel sewage system.. And thus be able to solve flooding problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
