Tap water develops earthy taste, included in concession contract review
In 2014, Macao tap water developed an earthy taste that drew resident concern. An investigation attributed it to algae in the raw water and insufficient maintenance at mainland water intake points; water quality still met statutory standards. Authorities included the incident in the mid-term review of the water supply concession contract and ordered Macao Water to improve treatment and monitoring.
