  7. Local Catchments Legend Unprotected Water Catchment Protected Water Catchment Proposed Water Catchment MacRitchie Reservoir Punggol Protected Catchment Unprotected Catchment Urban Stormwater Collection System Kranji Reservoir Bedok Stormwater Pond • Half of Singapore is already water catchment • Catchment area will be increased from half to two-thirds by 2011

  8. Marina Barrage - Creating a reservoir in the city Official Opening on 31 Oct 08 **Water Supply **Flood Control**Lifestyle Attraction**

  9. High Grade Reclaimed Water - NEWater Microfiltration / Ultrafiltration Treated Used Water Reverse Osmosis NEWater Ultra-Violet

  10. NEWater Plants 17 mgd in 2007 5 mgd in Feb 2004 Kranji Seletar NEWater capacity to meet 30% of Singapore’s water needs by2011 Changi 5th NEWater Plant 50 mgd by 2010 7 mgd in Jan 2003 Bedok 32 mgd in Mar 2007 Legend NEWater pipeline NEWater Plant Service Reservoir Ulu Pandan Bedok Expansion 7 mgd  18 mgd

  11. Desalinated Water • To augment and diversify our water resources • SingSpring Pte. Ltd., under a 20 year DBOO arrangement with PUB • One of the largest seawater RO plants • Supply of 30 mgd for 20 years • Opened on 13 Sep 05
