In progress: The land beside Kolam Taman Wahyu in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, has been alienated for development. — YAP CHEE HONG/The Star

STRINGENT conditions and various technical reports must be satisfied and submitted before any land near flood retention ponds is alienated for development.

A crucial part of the conditions is that a 50m setback, from the highest water level of a flood retention pond, must be maintained between the pond and land that is to be developed. This is just one of many conditions imposed on developers who submit plans to develop land near flood retention ponds in Kuala Lumpur, according to the Federal Territories Director of the Lands and Mines Office (PPTGWP).
