Our Commitment To Business Sustainability S E C T I O N F O U R HSS Engineers Berhad l Annual Report 2022 pg.47 SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT The Sg. Batu Pahat basin is the main water resource for the district of Batu Pahat, Johor. The Sg. Batu Pahat, which flows through Batu Pahat town comprises two main tributaries i.e. Sg. Simpang Kiri and Sg. Simpang Kanan. Sg. Simpang Kanan in turn has two tributaries, i.e. Sg. Bekok and Sg. Sembrong. The Sg. Bekok and Sg. Sembrong catchments have been exploited by the Bekok and Sembrong reservoirs in the upper reaches of the respective rivers, whilst Sg. Simpang Kiri has not been used for water supply purposes. Presently, the Bekok reservoir provides direct supply yield of approximately 260 Mld and channeled to the Yong Peng 2&3 WTPs (90 Mld) and Sembrong Lagoon (150 Mld) for further pumping to the Sri Gading and Parit Raja WTPs, with a surplus yield of only 20 Mld which is not viable to meet the envisaged requirements of this project. The main purpose of this project is to increase the reserve margin of treated water for Batu Pahat to ensure continuous water supply and minimise water disruption during WTP temporary shutdown and to cater for high demand for water supply during festive season. There will also be a need to rezone water supply for all WTP in Batu Pahat with the completion of the new proposed WTP as well as to improve water distribution system in Senggarang area and other areas in Batu Pahat. This Project envisages a new water supply scheme for the district of Batu Pahat with proposed capacity of 40 Mld (with an ultimate capacity of 80 Mld), trunk main system from a new WTP and water distribution improvement works, and a new service reservoir of 5.4ML at Senggarang, Batu Pahat. SMHB was appointed as Engineering Consultant to carry out detailed study, detailed engineering investigation, detailed design, tender preparation, supervision during construction, monitoring and advise on remedial works during Defects Liability Period. Batu Pahat Water Treatment Plant and Reticulation Works The Green Building at Supervision Building of Toll Plaza SUKE Highway is a sustainable infrastructure project in Malaysia. Green building, also referred to as sustainable building or eco-friendly construction, is the method for designing and constructing buildings with consideration for the environment in mind. It also emphasizes how crucial it is to include environmentally friendly techniques into infrastructure projects in order to preserve the environment and encourage sustainable growth. A variety of factors are taken into account while designing a green building, such as site selection, energy efficiency, water conservation, material choice, waste reduction, and others. Through the implementation of green building techniques and ideas, the toll plaza’s environmental impact will be reduced during the duration of its construction. HSSI was appointed as Engineering Consultant to carry out preliminary and detailed design and provide consultant site supervision during construction in the project. Green Building at Supervision Building at Toll Plaza Sungai Besi–Ulu Kelang Elevated Expressway (SUKE) Highway Infrastructure Project East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) The ECRL is a major infrastructure project undertaking in Malaysia that aims to connect the country’s east coast states to the west coast, including the capital city - Kuala Lumpur. The project involves building a new 640-kilometer railway line with several stations and terminals in order to increase connectivity and stimulate the economic growth. The ECRL project is anticipated to increase overall efficiency, lower transportation costs, and ease the movement of people, goods, and services across the nation. SUKE Highway
