IN exercise of the powers conferred by sections 21, 24, 25 and 51 of the
Environmental Quality Act 1974 [Act 127], the Minister, after consultation
with the Environmental Quality Council, makes the following regulations:
Citation

(Sewage) Regulations 2009.
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
(SEWAGE) REGULATIONS 2009
• Formerly known as Environmental Quality (Sewage and

Industrial Effluent) 1979
• Divided later into two separate regulations
(i) Environmental Quality (Sewage) Regulations 2009.
(ii) Environmental Quality (Industrial Effluent) Regulations 2009.
REGULATIONS 2009
Interpretation
• “sludge”
Means any deposit of particulate matter settled from a

liquid, including deposit resulting from physical, chemical,
biological or other treatment of sewage.
REGULATIONS 2009
Interpretation
• “sewage”
Means any liquid waste or wastewater discharge

containing human, animal, domestic or putrescible matter
in suspension or solution, and includes liquids contaning

treated form.
REGULATIONS 2009
Interpretation
• “dilution”
Means any process making sewage less concentrated by

adding water or other liquids from external sources other
than liquids or materials used for treating the sewage.
Disposal By Dilution
• Dilution is predominant natural method of disposal. Disposal
by dilution is the process whereby the raw or treated (most
treated) sewage is discharged into water bodies such as
rivers, lakes, sea, etc.
• The discharge sewage, in due course of time, is purified by the
self purification process of the natural waters. The sewage is
mainly purified due to oxidation of organic matter by bacteria
using the dissolved oxygen (DO) present in the water bodies.
• The degree of the treatment given to the raw sewage before
disposing it in to any river will depend not only upon the
quality of raw sewage but also on the self purification
capacity of river and the intended use of its water at the
downstream end.
REGULATIONS 2009
Interpretation
• “performance monitoring”
Means the routine monitoring of certain characteristics to

provide an indication that a treatment process is functional
and capable of treating the sewage.
TYPICAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
REGULATIONS 2009
Interpretation
• “population equivalent”
Means the equivalent in terms of fixed population of a

varying or transient population or other activity, for example
industrial or commercial contributing to flow to the
sewerage treatment system.
Population Equivalent
• The wastewater carried by the sewer consists of domestic
sewage and the industrial wastewater – it is expressed as a
muicipal load.
• The population equivalent (PE) is a unit of measurement of
organic biodegradable pollution representing the
average load of that pollution produced by one person in
one day;
• In general, BOD contribution per capita per day may be
taken as 60 - 80 g/day or (0.06 - 0.08 kg/day/person).
= Excretes 80 g/day of BOD

MONITORING OF SEWAGE DISCHARGE
• An owner or occupier of a premises that discharges
sewage onto or into any soil, or into any inland waters or
Malaysian water shall, at his own expense:
• Monitor the concentration of the parameters specified in
the first column of the Second Schedule.
• Install flow-meters, sampling equipment and recording
equipment.
• The owner or occupier of the premises shall maintain a
record of sewage discharge monitoring data (Fifth
Schedule)
