PrimeWater and  the Bacolod City Water District (BACIWA) are deploying 24 storage tanks to 12 barangays identified with critical levels of water availability as part of the  ongoing initiatives to address the challenges brought by the El Niño phenomenon. 

The  barangays are Handumanan, Tangub, Mandalagan, Felisa, Vista Alegre, Villamonte, Taculing, Alijis, Sum-ag, Mansilingan,  40 and Banago that  will receive two water storage tanks each with a capacity of 2,000 liters, a press release from PrimeWater said Sunday. 

The tanks are deployed and installed in areas identified by the barangay as  in need of water because they  are currently receiving only  0-4 hours of water supply, the press release said. 

PrimeWater also has five existing water trucks for  daily water rationing, with a total capacity of 53 cubic meters. These trucks are intended for water delivery and rationing as an initiative to address the increasing water demand.

To date, a total of 388,000 liters of water was distributed to the residents of Bacolod, especially in the areas with no supply of water, the press release said.

“PrimeWater and BACIWA are currently addressing water issues by implementing targeted solutions and fostering partnerships that will improve water access and efficiency across Bacolod City,”  Farah Jenny Monteclaro,  PrimeWater Bacolod branch manager, said.*
