#PSA Clean-up of beaches affected by the oil spill has completed ahead of schedule!  
 
🙌 A BIG thank you to everyone who worked hard to restore areas affected by the oil spill.
 
This significant milestone in Singapore’s recovery from the June 2024 oil spill would not have been possible without
- 800 cleaning personnel who removed about 3,750 tonnes of oil-soaked sand and debris.
- More than 2,300 volunteers that stepped forward to conduct litter picking when cleaners were deployed to clean up the oil spill and subsequently to remove tar balls when it was safe to do so.
- Over 10,000 metres of booms that were deployed to prevent oil from being washed ashore or into our inland canals.
 
Water activities can only fully resume when the water quality returns to normal and is stable. Info on water quality at beaches is available at go.gov.sg/beach-water-info.
Get a bird’s eye view at the Raptor Tower, and you might just spot a bird or two from this 360-degree view of Kranji Marshes. While camping for raptors such as the White-bellied Sea Eagle to appear, do keep the area clean by binning your litter properly.

TGIF! We are happy to announce that ECP areas B and C are now safe for swimming and other primary contact water activities such as wakeboarding. Just in time for the weekend 🎉

We are still monitoring the water quality in other parts of ECP (areas D to H). As water quality has not returned to normal in these parts, we continue to advise the public against swimming and engaging in primary contact water activities until further notice.

Information on the water quality at beaches is available at: go.gov.sg/beach-water-info
