The Department of Water Resources has conducted field inspections and maintenance on meteorological and hydrological stations in the Ping-Wang river basin.
On August 17, 2026, the Department of Water Resources, through the Office of Water Resources Region 1, announced that its teams have been actively working in the Ping-Wang river basin. According to the official report, personnel were deployed to conduct water volume measurements and collect suspended sediment samples.
In addition to data collection, the teams performed maintenance and upgrades on various meteorological and hydrological stations located throughout the basin. These efforts are part of the department's ongoing commitment to monitoring water quality and flow dynamics in the region.
For residents and travelers in the Ping-Wang area, these activities are standard operational procedures aimed at ensuring the accuracy of environmental data.

Further updates regarding the status of the basin's water quality or potential infrastructure changes resulting from these station upgrades remain to be confirmed by the authorities.
