Manila Water affirms its commitment to service amidst challenges

Manila Water has declared a consolidated net income of ₱5.5 billion for 2019, which is lower by 16% from 2018 figures. This has been anticipated considering the challenges the company faced last year, with the East Zone concession severely impacted by the water supply shortage in March. The decline in La Mesa dam water levels caused water service availability to drop significantly, with La Mesa dam reaching its lowest level at 68.5 meters in April 2019. In July last year, raw water allocation from Angat Dam hit its lowest, with releases limited to 35 cubic meters per second for the MWSS Concessionaires. To mitigate the impact of low raw water supply, Manila Water pushed for network efficiency to maintain service availability, with at least 7 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure, enough to reach the ground floor level, enabling it to serve more than 7 million people in the East Zone with safe and reliable water supply, covering over 1.3 million households and with more than 5,000 kilometers of network pipeline.
