Water supply disruption

JAKARTA (JP): Tap water firm PT Thames Pam Jaya announced on
Tuesday temporary disruption of the water supply on Wednesday
morning in several eastern areas of the city due to an
electricity blackout at the Buaran Water Treatment Plant.

Sales and marketing manager of the firm Nani Sariati said
state-owned electricity company PT PLN announced power would be
down between 10 a.m. and noon because of repairs to the power
station at the plant.

Nani said areas affected would be those served by the firm's
offices in Gudang Air, Kalimalang, Balai Pustaka, Pulomas, Gading
Permai and Salemba. Thames Pam Jaya provides tap water service to
the eastern section of the city.

"The water supply will return to normal once the repair work
is completed," she said. (jun)
