The discharge of the Katulampa Dam rises when it rains in the Bogor area, West Java, since noon so that people along the Ciliwung River are asked to increase their vigilance.
The executor of Katulampa Dam Andi Sudirman in Bogor City, Friday, reported that the Water Level (TMA) reached 90 centimeters at 15.25 WIB with a runoff discharge of 113.417 liters per second accompanied by a smooth drizzling weather condition.
"This increase in discharge occurred because the rain lasted quite a long time in the upstream area of Bogor," Andi said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, December 5.
The status of the dam at that time was at Alert 3 Level. The increasing debit condition is an indicator of the need for further vigilance.
On subsequent monitoring at 17.00 WIB, TMA was recorded to have dropped to 70 centimeters with a discharge of 68,094 liters per second. The weather is still drizzling and the status has changed to Alert 4 or normal.
Katulampa's parent channel intake data showed stable conditions with a TMA of 30 centimeters and a discharge of 2,248 liters per second at the two monitoring times.
