The Stakeholder Engagement Session on the Publication of the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implementation Plan Development Guidebook in Malaysia was held on 7 October 2026 at Dorsett Putrajaya and organised by the Department of Environment Malaysia (DOE). The session aimed to gather views, inputs, and consensus from relevant stakeholders to ensure that the guidebook serves as a reference for TMDL planning and implementation in Malaysia. NAHRIM also contributes to this initiative as a member of the Editorial Committee for the guidebook.
The TMDL approach is an integrated pollutant load management method that takes into account the assimilative capacity of water bodies to safeguard river water quality. The publication of this guidebook is expected to standardise the approach and enhance stakeholders’ understanding of the development of TMDL implementation plans in Malaysia.
