SINGAPORE: The National Environment Agency (NEA) has carried out tests on water samples from Sungei Serangoon canal where thousands of dead fish were found on Wednesday.
The results show the water did not contain any toxic contaminants.
In a joint statement with the PUB, the NEA says it is still carrying out tests to find out why the fish died.
It sent its officers to collect water samples from the canal on Wednesday, and is now working with PUB on the investigations.
The PUB says it cleared the dead fish from the canal on Wednesday.
As a precautionary measure, the public has been advised not to fish in the area or consume any fish caught.
The NEA says it will continue to monitor the water quality and inform the public when the situation is back to normal. - CNA/yy
