Thank you for building the infiltration well in our area

Seribu Islands SDA Sub-agency Head, Mustajab said the construction of the two water absorption wells is a follow-up to te resident's direct proposal, as flooding often occurs during heavy rain.

"We send ten personnel to build two wells. This work has been ongoing since February 6, 2025," he explained, Monday (2/17).

He explained each of these wells has60 centimeters long and 40 centimeters wide with 50 centimeters deep. They would be connected to each other between one tank and another using six-inch PVC pipes.

"We do first excavate for the soak pit and connect it with pipes, and later this soak pit will be closed manually," he explained.

Hopefully, it could make the road and residential areas free from flooding, allowing residents and tourists to conduct activities safely and comfortably.

"Please residents to maintain and care for the infiltration well by not littering," he stressed.

This work received appreciation from one of the residents from RW 03, Untung Jawa Island Urban Village, Bustomi.
