        "content": "<p>Water levels in the Cisadane River at the Pintu Air 10 monitoring\npoint in Tangerang have dropped by 12 percent during the current dry\nseason. The Cidurian Cisadane River Basin Management Office (BPDAS) has\nresponded by closing all sluice gates at the Pasar Baru Weir. This\nmeasure aims to maintain raw water availability for the community and\nensure that water levels upstream remain sufficient to supply water\ntreatment plants and agricultural irrigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 12 percent decrease in water discharge is a phenomenon that\nalways occurs during the dry season. However, conditions this year are\nmore extreme due to lower rainfall compared to the previous year,\u201d said\nDidik Purwanto, Head of the Cidurian Cisadane BPDAS, on Thursday\n(16\/7).<\/p>\n<p>Didik explained that his team is currently coordinating with the\nregional water utility company (PDAM) to carry out dredging or\nnormalisation in the intake area. This step is intended to ensure that\nthe raw water intake process remains optimal throughout the dry season.\n\u201cThis is done so that raw water extraction can continue maximally,\nensuring the community\u2019s needs and agricultural irrigation are met\nduring the dry season,\u201d Didik stated.<\/p>\n<p>He confirmed that the current raw water supply for both public\nconsumption and agricultural irrigation remains at a safe level.\n\u201cNevertheless, we are conducting regular monitoring of water discharge\nduring this dry season. If drought conditions become more extreme, we\nwill prepare anticipatory measures to ensure the raw water supply,\nirrigation needs, and flood control functions continue to operate\nproperly,\u201d Didik added. He also appealed to the public to conserve water\nusage as a collective effort to maintain water resource availability\nuntil the rainy season arrives.<\/p>",
