The Royal Irrigation Department has started diverting water from the Tha Chine River, in Nakhon Pathom province, into the Chao Phraya River through the Phraya Banlue irrigation canal to flush out seawater.

 

The department is also seeking cooperation from farmers, living along Phraya Banlue canal, to stop pumping water out of the canal to feed their crops on January 13th and 14th, when tides are predicted to peak.

 

Powered boats have been deployed at 14 locations in the 42-km long canal accelerate the flow of the water into the Chao Phraya, after tests taken from the river yesterday showed salinity at one gram/litre.

Thought we were told there is a water shortage, this is a total waste of water resources - salinity of one gram/litre never hurt anyone in ther short term

Water quality in the Tha Chine river is considered poor due to pollution. Anyone want a glass of Bangkok tap water ?
