Mae La-Or Market flood drainage work underway

PATTAYA:--Contractors have begun connecting underground drainage pipes around the Mae La-Or Market with a new wastewater-treatment plant in Jomtien Beach and Pattaya officials are predicting the work will be on-time and problem-free.

Deputy Mayor Verawat Khakhay reviewed the ongoing construction May 21 at Wat Boonkanjanaram Soi 4. Work will continue through mid-June, 8 a.m. to midnight on both that street and Wat Boonkanjanaram Soi 5 with both closed to traffic.

Construction calls for placing 6-meter-long tanks to accommodate storm water on both sois and the water routed to the under-construction plant on Soi Wat Boonkanjanaram. Launched in 2010, the plant first was set for completion 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. - See more at: http://www.pattayamail.com/localnews/mae-la-or-market-flood-drainage-work-underway-38023#sthash.m0empRx3.dpuf
