Kemarau hidrologi merupakan fenomena kekurangan air yang ekstrem yang selalunya memberikan impak ke atas kehidupan normal manusia.Impak kemarau ini amat bergantung pada tahap keparahan sesuatu peristiwa kemarau. Tahap keparahan kejadian kemarau hidrologi boleh digambarkan melalui tempoh atau jumlah defisit kemarau. Tempoh kemarau yang panjang dan jumlah defisit air yang tinggi merupakan petunjuk penting bagi keekstreman kemarau. Artikel ini mengkaji tahap keparahan kemarau di lembangan Sungai. Lui, Hulu Langat, Selangor. Dalam konteks kajian ini, nilai lampauan (persentil - Q) daripada keluk tempoh alir (KTA) digunakan untuk menentukan peristiwa kemarau. Tempoh 48 tahun data luahan bagi stesen Lui digunakan bagi menentukan nilai Q. Dengan menggunakan persentil Q70 = 1.15 m3s-1sebagai paras ambang (PA) asas kemarau yang diperoleh daripada KTA, didapati tempoh dan jumlah defisit luahan yang terhasil adalah berbeza mengikut kelas keparahan kemarau.

Challenges of maximising river sand exploitation in Selangor, Malaysia

Ithnin Hamirdin,

Abstract

River sand is a resource that generates income and Malaysia is abundantly endowed with it. The state of Selangor, Malaysia has many rivers and sand exploitation sites are mostly found in these rivers. An important aspect which is given great attention is the potential of the contribution to the state coffer that can be garnered from it. As Malaysia develops, the growth of the building and construction industry expand, and demand for river sand as a construction material increases. In most drainage systems in Malaysia, this resource is ubiquitous. Due to its abundance and easily-exploitable nature, this resource is often unscrupulously exploited in a way which is not to the benefit of the state government as well as to the people in general. This study analyzes the challenges faced by the industry in light of the fast paced development that is taking place in Malaysia and also the regional development in neighboring countries that also affects the health of this industry.

The government of the state prior to the 2008 General Election had embarked on an interbasin water transfer project with the aim of boosting the availability of raw water for treatment and subsequently to supply the state with a projected future demand curve. A change in government in 2008 saw a change in emphasis with regard to the water supply system. The present state government is of the view that the interstate water transfer project ought to carry out concurrently with the restructuring of the water supply system of the state. Other parties such as the concessionaires are on an opposite view. As such there was a stalemate regarding the progress of the interstate water transfer and the restructuring of the water supply system. It looked as if the party which wanted to go ahead with the water transfer proje.....
