Water Resource Development Planned for Chanthaburi’s Sai Khao Sub-district

The Department of Water Resources (DWR) recently announced that its regional office, DWR 6, has conducted site surveys in Sai Khao sub-district, Soi Dao district, Chanthaburi province. The initiative focuses on villages 4, 6, and 10, with the primary objective of developing additional water storage facilities.

According to the official report, these infrastructure improvements are intended to secure a more reliable water supply for both household consumption and local fruit farming. As the region relies heavily on agriculture, enhancing water retention is a critical step toward stabilizing the local economy and ensuring consistent resources for residents.

For residents and visitors, this development signifies a proactive effort to manage water security in a key agricultural area. While the survey phase is underway, specific details regarding the construction timeline, the exact capacity of the new reservoirs, and the total budget allocated for the project have not yet been disclosed. Stakeholders are currently awaiting further updates from the DWR regarding the project's implementation schedule and potential impacts on local traffic or land access during the construction phase. For those living in or traveling through the Soi Dao district, it is advisable to monitor official announcements for any future developments that may affect local infrastructure.
