A company is under probe after white discharge in a river in Sungei Kadut was traced to its factory in the area.
National water agency PUB said yesterday it deployed its quick response team to Sungei Kadut Way last Saturday after receiving public feedback about the discharge flowing into a drain that led to Sungei Pang Sua. The team traced its source, determined to be a non-toxic cement binder, to the company's factory in Sungei Kadut.
"The discharge was contained and removed in two hours, and the canal has been clear since," PUB said in a statement issued jointly with the National Environment Agency . It said the waterway where the white discharge was observed leads to the sea and does not flow into the nearby Kranji Reservoir.
