WATER MANAGEMENT
The Group’s businesses are also
focused on efficient water management
through, inter alia, reusing water
throughout their operations and
rainwater harvesting.
Food Division’s
PNG subsidiary is continuing with their
efforts to identify opportunities to reduce
its water consumption using a variety
of approaches including recycling
water, replacing faulty equipment, and
eliminating water leaks. In addition,
SUSTAINABILITY
REPORT 2017
the
Plantation Division
has installed
rainwater tanks at workers’ quarters
at our Miri and PTNJL estates to
harvest rainwater to be used for non-
drinking purposes, namely washing
and sanitation. Weirs have also been
constructed across the field drains at our
Miri estate to facilitate water retention
and maintain the groundwater table at
optimal levels.
The Group’s Indonesian subsidiary,
PTNJL has set aside areas within its
plantation as water catchment zone.
Chemical applications are strictly
prohibited at the water catchment zone
to facilitate natural re-vegetation of the
area and preservation thereof.
