| description | This research project was focused on the water resource management in Asajaya which is
located in the Samarahan division, a district in Sarawak. It has been known for frequent
water shortage during dry season. Thus, this study is conducted to identify the cause of
frequent water shortage in that area and to propose possible correction measure based on
current water resource management. Data collection was done by gaining non classified data
and conducting oral interview with the management authority. A questionnaire is designed to
be administered to the residents of Asajaya. It is figured that water shortage occurs because
water consumption exceeds water production. During dry season, insufficient raw water
intake is available to meet the demands of because of population growth. Insufficient amount
of funding required by Asajaya dissolved air flotation (DAF) water treatment plant results in
low capacity of treatment facilities and maintenance. It is suggested that alternative site for
raw water intake should be proposed to overcome the problem besides from implementing
Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) principle. |
