| LUBOK BUNTIN DRAINAGE SCHEME | |
| Location |
The Scheme covers a gross area of 280.7 hactares (revised January, 1996) and is located on the left bank of Batanag sadong about 6 miles upriver from Simunjan District, Samarahan Division.
|

Project Objectives |
The main objectives of the scheme was to provide land protection from floods and provide proper drainage / water managment area. Prior to the implementation of the scheme, the area was subjected to 3' to 4' of fresh water flood with duration of 3 - 5 days resulting from axcess run-off from forest hinterland especially during landas. The area was also inundated by water from Batang Sadong by 1' to 3' during the king tides. The scheme would also open up more land cultivation. |
| Construction Period | The project start on Febuary 17th 2000 and completed May 11th 2001 |
| Project Cost | The total cost for the project is RM 740,000.00. |
| Date of Completion | Project completed in the year 1983. |
| Project Area | The actual area for the scheme is 322 hectares |
| Project Component | 1. Perimeter Bund and Drain 2. Cut-Off Drain 3. Internal Drain 4. 5' X 5' Tidal Control Gate 5. 4' X 4' Tidal Control Gate 6. 3' diameter Check Gate 7. Belian Access Bridge |
| NOTE : | Errosion of the banks of batang Sadong is continuously destroying portion of perimeter bund in the scheme. As a results, construction of retreat bund along errosion effected area have to be implemented to safeguard the remaining area of the scheme. This has led to a significant reduction in its scheme area. |
