PETALING JAYA, April 4 — There is no need for certificates of completion and compliance (CCC) to be reissued for Putra Heights homes affected by the gas pipeline fire, Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said today.
He clarified that the CCC is usually needed for a building that has just been completed, rather than collapsed buildings in this case.
“I think the assurance [given by these parties] is sufficient,” he told the press at the Putra Heights Mosque temporary relief centre here.
Amirudin reiterated that the CCC is not needed since the 85 houses have been declared fit for re-entry.
He said the clearance from TNB would suffice for now, and residents can now return to their homes if they wish to undertake repair works.
He also said that the affected homes will be cleared for re-entry as soon as those checks are completed.
Amirudin Shari had yesterday said that 85 house owners are allowed to return home starting last night once safety clearance is given by utilities companies like TNB.
However, a group of residents were seeking clarification on which 85 houses have been cleared and are requesting the reissuance of CCC from relevant parties to ensure that it is safe to return to their homes.
Several Putra Heights residents were displaced following a blast caused by a leak in a Petronas gas pipeline.
The fire, which broke out at 8.10am on April 1, was fully extinguished at 3.45pm. However, a total of 88 housing and shop units sustained damage ranging from 10 to 90 per cent.

SEREMBAN: Just days after the massive Petronas gas pipeline explosion in Putra Heights, Selangor, irresponsible people allegedly set fire to rubbish in a high-risk area near what authorities believe is a gas pipeline beneath the ground at Taman Bukit Sendayan.
The burning of the waste occurred on Thursday, Sinar Harian reported.
The fire covered an area of approximately 200 square feet, about the size of a small room or car park space.
Seremban 2 Fire and Rescue Department senior fire officer I Mohd Nizam Yom said the department received information about the fire incident at 8.30am.
"As soon as we arrived, we found that there was a debris fire covering an area of about 200 square feet.
"We took approximately 15 minutes to control the fire from spreading, and the operation was fully completed at 10.14am," he said.
Nizam said the site was an illegal burning area, consisting of old furniture, boxes, and plastic items.
What was concerning was the presence of a warning sign indicating a gas pipeline route near the burning area, he said.
"I can't confirm if the fire was directly along the gas pipeline route, but there is definitely a warning sign in the area," Nizam said.
More than a hundred people sought medical treatment in hospitals on Tuesday following the Petronas gas pipeline explosion in Putra Heights.
The towering inferno which happened on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, was visible for kilometres and lasted for several hours, forcing hundreds of residents to evacuate.
The incident occurred on the second day of Hari Raya, shocking the local community during the festive holiday period.
