Dams in 3 northern states at ‘critical’ levels

WATER levels at six dams in Perlis, Kedah and Penang are still at critical levels, the National Water Services Commission (SPAN) said in a statement today.

The commission said that the water levels at Timah Tasoh Dam in Perlis; Sungai Muda Dam, Pedu Dam and Beris Dam in Kedah; and Ayer Itam Dam and Telok Bahang Dam in Penang would be monitored closely due to the risk of drought.
