Popular Post rooster59 Posted March 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2021 Pattaya: Black sludge going into the sea was not eco-unfriendly, says City Hall Image: Sophon Cable TV Pattaya's City Hall hit back after a watchdog claimed sewage was seeping into the sea after floods last month. A post on Pattaya Watchdog showed black sludge by Soi 18 Na Klua after heavy rains on February 17th. Environmental experts had been down to investigate. City Hall told Sophon Cable TV that it may have looked bad but in fact this was just dirty rain water that was not in fact environmentally unfriendly. They promised that in the future when drainage improvements are all in place that separate drains will be used for rain water and sewage. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-03-13 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post robblok Posted March 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2021 Strange that they say its not a problem and not eco unfriendly but they are going to fix it anyway. Why fix it if it was not broken in the first place. Seems like a lie to me. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lacessit Posted March 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2021 Rain water does not turn black without good reason. A full analysis by an independent laboratory would have credibility, permit me to doubt City Hall does. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually the first runoff in an urban area that hasn't had recent precipitation will be quite heavily laden with dust and rubber particles. Previously, I lived in Las Vegas and extended periods without rain were common. We had to be extra careful during the initial rain as it would mix with the dust and tire debris to make a very slippery sludge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) there are natural sources for black water like this. but these are the souls of people who live in Pattaya that were extracted and drained of all energy and discarded.

What we see in Pattaya and other large tourists towns is that the "harmless" runoff is concentrated sewage and toxic waste. In Thailand, people pour their used paint, motor oil, cooking oil and whatever into storm drains and it collects until next big rain pushes it down the system into ocean. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd ask the Pattaya governor along with city hall members to back up their words by taking a swim in the water where the outflow is... videoed for the nation to see.

Unfortunately for City Hall we have had quite a lot of rain over the last couple of weeks so that tosses your theory into a cocked hat mate ????
