GEOPHYSICAL TECHNIQUES FOR GROUND INVESTIGATIONS We have extensive experience in applying state of the art non-invasive ground characterization techniques to all areas of the geotechnical, civil engineering, mineral, groundwater and environmental industries. Geophysical surveys are designed to exploit one or more of the physical properties of a target feature that is in contrast with its host environment, e.g., the low- density nature of a void is in contrast to the high-density nature of surrounding bedrock, etc. Careful examination of the likely physical characteristics of the target (size, depth and properties) is required to enable reliable assessment of whether it is detectable or not. Geophysical surveys are generally carried out at surface using sensitive equipment, so it is also essential to consider the possible influence of the site conditions and the overburden at the design stage, e.g, the presence of thick fill or metal scrap at surface can adversely affect some methods. Key Benefits of our Geophysical Survey 1. Cost Effective Our Geophysical Survey can provide detailed information about the subsurface in very little time. Compare the cost of obtaining similar information purely through manual excavation or drilling and the benefit is immediately obvious. Commonly, our surveys are required to provide information between sparse borehole arrays or for optimum targeting of follow-up invasive work. 2. Rapid Ground Coverage We have invested heavily in state-of the-art equipment enabling us to cover several hectares per day for site characterization or profile along hundreds of meters for detailed crosssectional investigations. 3. Minimal Exposure to Hazards The techniques we use require little or no contact with the ground and there are no risks of exposing harmful waste or aggravating ground conditions - which are a frequent limitation of conventional ground exploration methods. 4. Environmentally Friendly Our survey techniques are non-invasive and involve minimal disturbance to the environment. We commonly carry out surveys in urban regions and areas of natural protection and incur few restrictions from the relevant authorities. 5. Quality Procedures Our scientists are highly qualified with extensive experience in applied geophysics. We place great emphasis on careful survey design and implementation while maintaining a flexible approach to work on site. Our survey results are integrated with existing information or complimentary datasets using GIS techniques for ease of use by the Client. 6. Customer Focused We understand our Client’s needs and ensure that survey results are delivered in a form that can be easily integrated into their work. We offer a flexible approach to pricing and can optimize the survey design to suit a given budget. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT: PI : Ts.

FLOOD MITIGATION MEASURES PROJECT DESCRIPTION FOR SIME DARBY PLANTATION AND CHAAH ESTATE (2020) CLIENT : SIME DARBY PLANTATION BERHAD To develop geospatial database as inputs for modelling and mitigation of flood in the estates. To carry out hydraulic and hydrologic modelling in order to map the flood extent (areal and depth) for selected return periods To refine and validate the mitigation measures as proposed in the earlier study To carry out bund profiling in order to provide adequate height along the bunds based on selected flood return periods. To propose other mitigation measures which may include pumping, construction of detention pond and flood gates. This study is designed to provide an integrated solution to the flood problem through the following objectives: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The Sg Simpang Kiri and Cha’ah estates in Cha’ah, Johor have been frequently affected by prolonged flood which threatens the growth of the oil palm trees and interferes with harvesting operation and transportation. All these result in the losses of income to the Sime Darby Plantation. Although, the rainfall in the area is comparable with the areas in Johor with the mean annual rainfall of 2,185 mm/yr, the estate is located in the lowland or flood plain and regularly flooded especially during the North-East Monsoon between November and January. The affected area is approximately 1,537 Ha or about 64% of the plantation area for a two-year flood. It is predicted that for a 20- yr flood, almost the whole plantation areas would be inundated if mitigation measures are not in place. EN. KAMARUL AZLAN BIN MOHD NASIR DR. MOHD RIDZA BIN MOHD HANIFFAH DR. ERWAN HAFIZI BIN KASIMAN SR. MOHAMAD NOR BIN SAID PROJECT LEADER: PROF. DR. ZULKIFLI YUSOP TEAM MEMBER: 1. 2. 3. 4. The main source of flood water is the overflowing from the Sungai Simpang Kiri which carries runoff from the upstream basin covering an area of about 400 km2. The flood water frequently results in overtopping of the bunds and causes prolonged floods in the plantation areas. The presence of JPS weir, initially constructed to minimise flood risk to the PLUS Highway bridge seems to worsen the flood condition in both estates. The high water level of the Sg Simpang Kiri during rainy seasons has slowed down the discharge from the plantation area and resulted in prolonged flooding. 124

Pengerang has been declared as a new and major oil and gas hub to propel stronger socio-economic impacts especially in the country. The State Government of Johor is also committed to transform rural areas so that the local people improve their socio-economic status and reap the rewards of development. The major development in Pengerang PIPC comprises refineries, petrochemical plants, LNG storage tanks, power plant, regasification plant, oil storage tanks and naphtha crackers. The water demand for the state of Johor is expected to increase more than double by year 2060. The large increase in water demand especially in Iskandar Malaysia corridor in particular Johor Bahru, Kulaijaya, Kota Tinggi and also Pengerang are associated with urban migration, influx of non-residential population and new mega projects. Unless new water intake and processing facilities are built, Johor may face water crisis as early as 2020. For so long the source of raw water supply in Johor has been almost entirely from rivers. The water in most of the major rivers have been heavily abstracted and shortage of supply are not uncommon especially during drought period and due to contamination. Occasionally, levels of salinity in major rivers have rose to alarming states and has interrupted the water treatment operation. This Report projects the water demand and assess the supply availability from SAJ up to year 2027. The potential of alternative water resources particularly groundwater, reclaimed wastewater, and rainwater harvesting are also investigated. Besides supply enhancement, the study also addresses the benefit of water demand management.

PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR SUNGAI JOHOR SMART DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT PROJECT DESCRIPTION CLIENT : YACHIYO ENGINEERING CO. LTD. The Johor River is one of the main water sources supplying treated water for IM. However, the combined effects of rapid development and climate change have caused occurrences of flash-flood at several locations along the river to be more frequent and unpredictable. The Johor River over the years has also caused massive floods at several populated areas along the riverbanks during the rainy seasons and has caused disruption to the water supply to IM, property losses and livelihood of people. To address the challenges, Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) proposed to establish a Smart Disaster Risk Management system (SDRM) which is a monitoring and management tool for river environment to consolidate data, analyse issues and formulate necessary actions to mitigate the impact of floods. SDRM will be an important component of IM’s Urban Observatory (IMUO) that aims to integrate data from various sources for better policy formulation and decision making.
