Water Supply Interruption in Sa Kaeo Due to Flooding
The Provincial Waterworks Authority in Sa Kaeo has suspended water services in parts of Mueang and Khao Chakan districts following flash flooding.
The Thailand Government Public Relations Department reported that the Provincial Waterworks Authority (PWA) of Sa Kaeo has issued an urgent notice regarding a temporary suspension of water supply. The disruption affects residents and businesses in Mueang Sa Kaeo District, Khao Chakan District, and Tha Kasem Subdistrict.
According to the official announcement, the suspension is necessary because flash floods have inundated the low-pressure pumping station, rendering it temporarily inoperable. This infrastructure damage prevents the facility from maintaining normal water distribution to the affected areas.
For residents and travelers currently in these regions, this interruption means a lack of tap water for daily activities. It is advised to store available water and monitor local updates for information regarding the restoration of services. As of the latest report, the PWA has not provided a specific timeline for when the pumping station will be fully operational again. Authorities are currently working to manage the situation, but the duration of the outage remains subject to the receding of floodwaters and the completion of necessary repairs. Please stay tuned to official provincial channels for further developments.
