BACKGROUND OF SWMA
� Selangor Waters Management Authority or its
acronym, SWMA/LUAS is a one-stop agency
for the management of water resources, river
basin, water bodies, ground water and
coastal waters in the State of Selangor.
� It was established under the Selangor Waters
Management Authority Enactment 1999
pursuant to the approval of the Selangor
State Legislative Assembly on 9 April 1999.
� To ensure the water resources and environmental su rrounding is in a manageable and sustainable condition
� To undertake the function of planning, research, fa cilitator, coordinator, operation, enforcement, supervision in the development of an the integrated management of wate r resources and environment
� To provide an environment that is conducive for pub lic and private sector participation in the development, ut ilization andmanagement of water resources
� To create the public awareness and the participatio n of the public on the importance of water resources
SWMA OBJECTIVES
WATER RESOURCES IN SELANGOR
� rivers and coastal waters
� ground waters
� lakes and ponds (alternative resources)

IMPACTS OF
POLLUTION
ENVIRONMENT
ECONOMY OTHERS
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS� Solid waste in rivers causes deterioration in the water
quality .
� River sand mining occur:
a. a) increasing sedimentation and water pollution
downstream
b) degradation of riverbed
c) riverbank and riparian vegetation
d) changes in hydraulic profile

DEGRADATIONSEDIMENTATION
ECONOMY IMPACTS� Solid waste can reduce aesthetic value especially for
recreation and tourism
� Cleaning and restoration is much more expensive than
applying measures of prevention
� Polluted water would also cause depletion of aquatic life
and subsequently create a potential loss of fisheries and
aquaculture business and recreational fishing
TOURISM RECREATIONLOSS OF
FISHERIES
OTHER IMPACTS� Water pollution can cause water borne diseases such as:
1) Arsenicosis;
2) Cholera and
3) Leptospirosisis.
� Water disruption may also happen because of pollution in
the water bodies.

LINKAGING AND HARMONIZING BETWEEN RIVER AND COASTAL MANAGEMENT
• Malaysian river basins and coastal zones are the most productive ecosystem in the country :
1) houses majority of the population (human & natural activities)
2) represents a unique environment – requires special attention in its
planning, development and management
• IRBM and ICM had been treated as a separate entity previously.
• Unplanned and uncoordinated development of river basin and coastal zone can lead to the
degradation of river and marine ecosystems health and this can be attributed to the
management of the land and coastal zone as a whole.
• The IRBM and the ICM are essentially deal with the integrated management of river basin
and coastal zone as a single interactive entity.
• Deals with the coordinated use and management of land and water resources and other
natural resources and activities within the river basin and coastal zone, to optimize the use of
these resources in a sustainable and productive manner.
THE ICM-IRBM PILOT DEMONSTRATION SITE :
• ICM Port Klang (joint program by PEMSEA-
IMO-UNDP-GEF/Selangor State Government) –
was selected for this study.
• Integrating the IRBM-ICM project boundary
resulted in an expanded boundary that covers
boundaries of IRBM of two major adjoining
upstream rivers, namely the Klang and Langat
Rivers.
• Klang River (area=1300 km2) passes through
Kuala Lumpur and Klang Valley whilst Langat
River (area=2400km2) drains the Langat Basin
and both river estuaries meet at the coastal
waters of ICM Port Klang.
THE INTEGRATION AND HARMONIZATION:
• The principle of integration and harmonization involves :
Establishing smart partnership Creating ‘win-win’ situation
Build shared objectives Resolving conflict by negotiation
Mediation and arbitration
Cont..
• The process requires synergy amongst different sectors (government, private, NGOs, civil
society etc), different government agencies (local authorities, land administrators, fisheries,
tourism, shipping, agriculture, etc), and different levels of government (Federal, State and
Local).
• Linkages also had to be established between:
LAND SEA POLICY SCIENCE
PRESENT
GENERATIONS
FUTURE
GENERATIONS
Cont..
• The urgent transitional step is to harmonize economic development
with sustainable environmental management that includes uniting the
diverse multi-sectoral and multi-disciplinary set-ups; protection of the
environment, public safety and biodiversity; sustainable use of
resources and minimization of resource-use conflicts.
• Integration between the IRBM and ICM embodies all the above
principles.
• Harmonized legislative and institutional developments, funding
sources and mechanisms have been recognized as the basic requisite
tools for successful IRBM-ICM in the Malaysian context.
Example of linkaging and harmonizing between river and coastal in Selangor State:
INLAND NAVIGATION FROM ESTUARIES UP
TO 40 KM TO THE UPSTREAMS
JETTIES OPERATIONS IN LANGAT RIVER
THESE ACTIVITIES NEED AN INTEGRATION MANAGEMENT BETWEEN DIFFERENT
GOVERNMENT AGENCIES INCLUDING SELANGOR WATERS MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY
