PATTAYA:--Pattaya officials are again predicting that construction of Pattaya’s second wastewater-treatment plant in Jomtien Beach soon will be finished, more than two years late.

Originally estimated to cost 500 million baht, the plant on Soi Wat Boonkanjanaram is 95 percent built and half the required equipment has been installed, Deputy Mayor Verawat Khakhay said during a tour of the construction site with water-quality analysis staffers May 12

Launched in 2010, the plant was first slated to be completed in 2012. The new completion date is set for Aug. 4 and Verawat promised fines against the contractor of 1.4 million baht a day if work runs late.

The latest estimate of the project’s cost now stands at 558 million baht. The mayor blamed changes to building plans made by city hall planners and 2011’s national flooding crisis for the delay.
