Tapwater production reduced

The Metropolitan Waterworks Authority has reduced tapwater production by 200,000 cubic metres a day because of the low level of dissolved oxygen in raw water at the Bang Khen plant.

MWA officials said on Wednesday they need time to improve water quality. In the meantime the plant cannot produce tapwater as normal.

People in some areas to the east of the Chao Phraya River will have a reduced water supply as a result.
