The Bacolod City government has initiated the “Patubig Sa Barangay” to provide supply to households with limited or dried-up water sources due to prolonged dry weather brought by El Niño. Mayor Alfredo Abelardo Benitez said on Wednesday it is important to ensure every household in the city has access to clean and reliable water.
He added that a filtration system will also be installed in water trucks to make the supply potable. Villages, where residents need water supply, are advised to submit requests to the Public Affairs and Assistance Division, which will coordinate the schedule of delivery with the fire stations and water truck service personnel. The Bureau of Fire Protection-Bacolod City Fire Station has also been serving areas with limited water supply since last month upon request of the village officials.
