Environmental Safety Procedure
The implementation of Sungai Selangor Water Supply Scheme Phase 3 (SSP3) is carried out with compliance to safety as stipulated in the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (Act 514) and Regulations and Factories and Machinery Act 1967 (Act 139) Regulations and Rules - Department of Safety and Health.
Under mandatory safety procedures stipulated by the Department of Safety and Health, SPLASH provides a safe working environment, occupational safety, safe working methods, provision of safety training and good public safety in its day-to-day operations.
In addition to this, SSP3 adheres to the MS ISO 9002 quality management system standards in its operations. All SPLASH personnel, whose work may create a significant impact upon the environment, were given appropriate education and training in order to ensure that they conform with the environmental policy, procedures and requirements of the environmental management system, including emergency preparedness and response requirements. Workers at worksite were also required to apply to safety measures and procedures in all areas of construction work and each type of work. This covers, among other construction work aspects, beam launching, crane lifting, welding and cutting, blasting, tunnelling, concrete and piling works.
A Safety, Health and Environment Committee was formed and responsible for ensuring effective implementation of safety at the work site. Proper safety procedure and guideline were established to ensure the working environment is safe and statutory requirements are complied.
Provision for Dam Siltation
- Allowance has been made in the design for dam siltation without affecting the water storage capacity for 100 years
- It was recommended to gazette the dam catchment as water catchment area to reduce the effect of siltation
Dam Site & Design
- The regional geology of the dam site is predominantly made up of granite and allied rocks
- Preliminary tests conducted indicated the bedrock formation is sound and tight
- The reservoir is designed not to fail by taking into account very high safety factors - including consideration of potential earthquake activities and review by overseas independent dam safety reviewer
