It highlights the components of environmental concerns of the Project site and its surroundings. The term ZOI is used to describe the area most likely to be impacted by the Project. The ZOI represents the surrounding area within a 5 km radius from the boundary of the LAMP site. The information provided within this chapter forms the basis of the impact assessment in Chapter 7. The description provided in this chapter is based on site visits and environmental monitoring data at the LAMP site, undertaken by Permulab (M) Sdn. Bhd., a laboratory accredited by the Department of Standards, Malaysia under the Skim Akreditasi Makmal Malaysia (SAMM), Malaysian Meteorological Department and publications by DOE, Kuantan Municipal Council, Pihak Berkuasa Perancang Tempatan (PBPT) Daerah Kuantan. Data from past studies, including the “Preliminary EIA and Quantitative Risk Assessment of the Proposed Advanced Materials Plant in Gebeng Industrial Area, Kuantan, Pahang, by Enviro Sdn Bhd, 2007” was also referenced. 6.2 TOPOGRAPHY Regionally, the GIE is located in the Kemajuan Tanah Merah area where Bukit Tanah Merah was flattened to construct the industrial estate.

  • Penjelajahan Geokimia Sedimen Sungai Dan Penentuan Kualiti Air Di Sekitar Lembangan Sungai Pahang, Pahang Darul Makmur
    GeoL. Soc. MaLaytJia, BuLLetin 44, JuLy 2000j pp. 91-100 Penjelajahan geokimia sedimen sungai dan penentuan kualiti air di sekitar Lembangan Sungai Pahang, Pahang Darul Makmur GOR SWEE HENG Jabatan Geologi Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia 43600 Bangi, Selangor Abstrak: Kawasan kajian merangkumi seluruh Lembangan Sungai Pahang yang disebarkan oleh Jaluran Emas Tengah dan Jaluran Timah Timur. Tiga aspek kajian telah dilakukan iaitu penjelajahan geokimia dengan menggunakan sedimen sungai, penentuan kualiti air sepanjang Sungai Pahang dan penentuan kualiti air tanah di sekitar Pekan. Dalam kajian penjelajahan geokimia, sebanyak 291 sampel sedimen dikutip untuk dianalisis unsur logam Sn, Pb, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Ni, Cd, Cr dan Au. Sejumlah 26 zon anomali yang berpotensi permineralan telah dikenali dan sembilan antaranya merupakan zon yang sangat menarik. Tiga zon anomali yang mungkin membawa kepada penemuan longgokan bijih barn Fe-Mn dan Pb-Cu-Zn telah ditemui di bahagian selatan Temerloh, iaitu di sekitar Sungai Triang, Sungai Serting dan Sungai Bera. Sebanyak 291 sampel air sungaijuga dikutip untuk kajian penentuan kualiti air Sungai Pahang. Parameter yang dianalisis termasuk parameter fizikal, kimia dan biologi. Berdasarkan kepada pengkelasan kualiti air, didapati kebanyakan bahagian Sungai Pahang dan cabang­ cabangnya boleh dikelaskan dalam Kelas II, kecuali Sungai Luit, Sungai Jempul, Sungai Tekam, Sungai Bentong dan Sungai Chenderoh yang dikelaskan dalam Kelas III. Bagi kajian penentuan kualiti air bawah tanah pula, sebanyak 47 sampel air tanah telah dikutip dari duabelas lubang gerudi di sekitar Pekan. Parameter yang dianalisis termasuk parameter fizikal dan kimia. Empat sistem akuifer yang mempunyai ketebalan dan kandungan kimia yang berlainan telah dikes an di kawasan ini. Satu punca penerobosan air masin yang berlaku di sekitar Kuala Pahangtelah ditemui dan didapati ia mempengaruhi kualiti air di sekitar Kampung Kuala Pahang dan Kampung Bentan.

  • Permian Brachiopods from Maran Area, Pahang
    204 Permian brachiopods from Maran area, Pahang MOHD SHAFEEA LEMAN Jabatan Geologi, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Permian outcrops and fossils including both fauna and flora are very well known from various localities within the vicinity of Maran, Pahang. Among Permian fossils fauna known are fusulinid foraminiferas, corals, brachiopods, bivalves, cephalopods and bryozoans. Brachiopods are abundant in particular horizons in this area. Two Permian brachiopods localities, i.e. Jengka Pass and Sri Jaya were already well established in past literatures. The present paper will incorporate the result of recent revision of the brachiopods from these two localities as well as recording a new brachiopod locality from Timor Oil Palm mill site. At Jengka Pass, brachiopods are found in both limestone, sandstone and shale, but they are more dominant in the black shale. Several species of brachiopods have been listed in Jones et al. (1966), Ichikawa (1966) and Gobbett (1973). The brachiopods from this locality was first described by Nakamura (1973). Recent revision indicates that the fauna was dominated by a single species Liosotella jaafari new species (a species which was previously described by Nakamura (1973) as Spinomarginifera kueichowensis Huang). Other brachiopods include Costiferina sp., Juresania sp., Phricodothyris sp., Leptodus sp. and? Dialesma sp. The brachiopods are associated with some bivalves, cephalopods, bryozoans, crinoids and foraminiferas of late Middle Permian to early Upper Permian age. The Sri Jaya bed outcropped along the Maran-Kuantan road (the easternmost of the series of Bukit Jaya ridges) yields some rare brachiopods, fusulinid foraminiferas, bivalves and some plant remains. Azhar Husain (1977), Che Aziz Ali (1965) and Lee (1990) have come out with different lists of brachiopods from this locality.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Visits to areas in the subcatchments of Sungai Pahang were made throughout the year 2009 including Mentakab, Temerloh, Maran and Pekan to obtain information such as inundation areas, flood depth, flow discharge and water levels relevant to 2007 flood. Interviews with local people were also made to ascertain the true picture of the 2007 flood. Analyses of rainfall data, water level, flow discharge and river cross-sectional changes were carried out from data gathering. The development of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was made from a combination of digital topographic maps and satellite images which were purchased from Jabatan Ukur dan Pemetaan Malaysia (JUPEM). This visually enhanced DEM is then used for the development of the actual extend of 2007 flood in the Study Area. Several options of flood mitigation works are proposed to reduce the impact of similar flood in the future based on the developed DEM.
