Environment 0
The Angat Dam’s water level remains below ideal marks even after heavy rains hit Luzon over the past week, the National Water Resources Board (NWRB) confirmed on Monday. Speaking at the Bagong Pilipinas public briefing, NWRB executive director Dr. Sevillo David Jr. noted the level rose slightly to 156.07 meters thanks to the southwest monsoon, but this is still the lowest reading recorded at the dam since 2010. He said the dam has yet to hit the 160-meter critical level, and ideally needs to reach the 180-meter minimum operating level, adding the agency is counting on more rainfall in Bulacan in the coming days to boost supplies. Angat Dam provides most of the raw water used by Metro Manila and nearby provinces, distributed by concessionaires Maynilad and Manila Water.
