Rupavahini News reports that a wastewater treatment centre is being built in Kurunegala by the National Water Supply and Drainage Board. Housing, Construction and Water Supply Minister Dr Sushil Ranasinghe visited the construction site on the 28th to review progress, construction work and plans for operating the facility.
Rupavahini News says the project was launched in response to environmental and public-health concerns arising when waste collected by septic tankers is disposed of, amid a shortage of properly planned treatment facilities and problems with existing systems. The Board’s Water Recycling Division, under its North Western Province regional support centre, is carrying out the project.
Rupavahini News reports that the facility is designed to treat a daily volume equivalent to about 15 septic-tanker loads, using advanced technology and environmentally oriented design. The outlet says the project is expected to improve sanitation in Kurunegala and nearby urban areas and help protect local drinking-water sources from contamination.
Rupavahini News reports that the project is intended to be completed promptly and opened for public use; it gives no completion date.
