SEMARANG - PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Regional 3 Tanjung Emas, Semarang, Central Java, has prepared 3,600 sandbags to temporarily repair the broken embankment belonging to PT Lamicitra in the Tanjung Emas Port area so that tidal flooding does not spread.

General Manager of Tanjung Emas Port, Hardianto, said that the thousands of sandbags that were prepared were a further effort to anticipate the widespread tidal flooding that hit the Tanjung Emas Port area of Semarang.

Previously, Pelindo Regional 3 Tanjung Emas alerted 32 units of water pumping machines with a capacity of up to 800 liters/second spread over a number of tidal flood-prone points.

"Now we are also supporting the repair of the embankment belonging to PT Lamicitra which collapsed by preparing sand bags. Later, the thousands of sacks will be used to temporarily close the broken embankment on the outside of the port so that tidal water does not return to the port area," he said, quoted by Antara, Tuesday. , May 24.

Pelindo also coordinates with the Central River Basin and PT Lamicitra as the owner of the area for the technical installation of the sandbag embankment.

"We must take quick steps so that the impact of this tidal flood does not spread, one of which is repairing the broken embankment. We are in a race against time to overcome this problem so that the tidal wave does not bring back the tidal wave," said Hardianto.

Hardianto added that a number of efforts in handling and preventing tidal flooding in the port area have also been carried out, starting from raising and strengthening piers, leveling container yards and adding water pumps.

"Previously, we routinely made a number of efforts to contain the tidal surge from entering the port area, this is not only for the sake of port operations, but also to protect residential areas around the port from being protected from tidal flooding," he said.
