Rains overwhelm Wong Amat sewage system

Pattaya sanitation workers responded to Wong Amat Beach after recent heavy rains flooded the beachfront with raw sewage.

Deputy Mayor Verawat Khakhay led Sanitation Department staffers to Wong Amat behind the North Point condominium Oct. 21 after complaints about the release of smelly wastewater there.

In the area, a contractor has been laying large underground tunnels and manholes for the sewage system that runs along Wong Amat Beach. The project is nearly finished. The remaining work is to connect all tunnels to the manholes to prevent wastewater from flowing into the sea.

Verawat said contractor Samprasit Co. reported that a massive amount of rainwater has caused the sewage in the tunnels and manholes to overflow onto the beach, which made it look like the workers were releasing wastewater on purpose. They also said that the construction has been very slow during the rainy season.

Never mind the rainy season, the construction has been very slow sine there started in late March. Several times we have seen the equipment lay idle for a week or so.

Now they are going at it great guns, sometimes working until 10 PM. Somebody must have given them a boot in the fanny...
