snoop1130 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Phuket health officials to test Surin Beach brown outflow Yutthawat Lekmak PHUKET:-- Health officials will conduct tests on water exiting an outflow pipe behind a hotel at Surin Beach despite being informed that it carries only rainwater run-off. Concern from officials follows the pipe spewing a plume of brown water onto the beach last Friday (Sept 30). Phatsorn Wisuthiwatcharakul, Chief of Public Health and Environment Division at Cherng Talay Tambon Administration Organisation (OrBorTor), inspected the pipe on Wednesday (Oct 5) after being informed of last Friday’s “fountain of brown” surging from the pipe. “We inspected the pipe and it does not belong to the hotel,” Ms Phatsorn told The Phuket News. “It also is not one of ours (Cherng Talay OrBorTor). The pipe was installed by Cherng Talay Municipality, and their officers told us that the pipe was installed many years ago to drain excess rainwater to the sea,” she said.

KarenBravo Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Well, as the health department refuse to publish the results of water tests on the west coast beaches, what are the chances of them releasing the test results for this "brown water"?
