GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has withheld declaring a state of calamity in Cebu Province to address the effects of the high heat index. In a press conference on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said the Provincial Government is monitoring the situation across all local government units (LGUs) in its jurisdiction, including studying the crop yield and water supply.She assured farmers and fisherfolk that they are insured under the Philippine Crop Insurance Corp. “Damage to crops will be compensated accordingly,” Garcia said. “As of now, we will watch and study the situation very carefully. We will assist where we can assist and we will make a decision when we have to make a decision,” Garcia added.SunStar Cebu tried to secure data on crop production in the province, but the Provincial Agriculture Office would not provide it without the approval of the Office of the Governor. Localized problemThe governor pointed out that the water supply problem is evident only in Cebu City.She said the Province has a joint venture deal with a Manila-based water firm to extract water from the Luyang River in the northern town of Carman which is supplied to the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD). On April 3, the MCWD reported a deficit in water production due to the El Niño phenomenon. This has resulted in consumers complaining about low water pressure or no water supply, particularly in elevated and interior areas. Garcia said she called all City and Municipal Risk Reduction and Management Offices under the Province’s jurisdiction to strengthen preventive measures to mitigate the effects of the drought, such as fire incidents.A grass fire broke out in the hinterlands of the southern town of Oslob late Saturday night, April 6, affecting up to 70 hectares of land in Barangays Poblacion, Cañang, Calumpang and Daan Lungsod.“To see to it that everyone is reminded of the risk of flammable materials that were normally, dili unta. This precisely because of abnormally high-temperature indices,” Garcia said.

The figure is under the extreme caution classification, which is between 32 and 41 degrees Celsius, and can cause heat cramps and exhaustion and may also lead to a heat stroke.The heat index or “feels-like” temperature combines air temperature and humidity to indicate how hot the weather feels to the human body.AdviceSo far this year, Eclarino said, the highest heat index recorded in Cebu was 39 degrees Celsius last March 27.He encouraged the public to always adhere to precautionary and preventive measures for health safety.Earlier, Pagasa said the temperature is hottest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., but the Department of Health (DOH) 7 suggested avoiding the outdoors as early as 9 a.m.Last month, Dr. Eugenia Mercedes Cañal, regional epidemiologist, set measures for the public to follow this summer amid the El Niño.Aside from avoiding the outdoors during peak hours when the heat index is at its highest, she also recommended wearing sunscreen outside and emphasized the importance of staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water.SunStar Cebu earlier reported that the heat index in Cebu may reach a “dangerous” 51 degrees Celsius in the coming months.Eclarino said historical data shows Cebu typically experiences its highest temperatures in May. On May 31, 2010, also during an El Niño, the province recorded surface temperature at 37 degrees Celsius and its highest heat index at 49 degrees Celsius.Eclarino attributed the high heat index to the El Niño phenomenon.Cebu and nine other provinces in the Visayas region are currently designated as experiencing drought.The other provinces are Antique, Biliran, Eastern Samar, Guimaras, Iloilo, Leyte, Negros Oriental, Negros Occidental and Samar.Eclarino said a drought is characterized by an extended dry spell, either with five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly reduced rainfall.Pagasa defines below-normal rainfall as 20 to 60 percent less than the usual amount, while way-below-normal rainfall indicates a decrease of more than 60 percent from the norm. / EHP, KJF Who is the best Philippine soccer player?

(DVG, TPT) Best Casino for Real Money in the Philippines THE acting general manager of the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) will work with the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) while it is investigating high non-revenue water (NRW) and other issues at the water district.John Dx Lapid, MCWD division manager for customer care, said he will also formulate measures to alleviate the effects of the El Niño phenomenon during his tenure.In a phone interview on Saturday, April 13, Lapid told SunStar Cebu that the LWUA’s interim board informed him on Friday, April 12, about his temporary appointment following the 90-day preventive suspension of general manager Edgar Donoso. The LWUA suspended Donoso on Friday because he continued to defy the interim board’s request to turn over documents regarding the MCWD’s transactions and he failed to respond to a five-day notice to explain his decision. Lapid said the MCWD will provide the LWUA with whatever it needs in its investigation.“They are asking for signed contracts, pending projects, mga COA (Commission on Audit) disallowance, so mao ni ang ilahang gipangayo nga documents (those are the documents they are asking for),” Lapid said. “By Monday, I will be meeting the managers, the rank-and-file, and (I) will assure them that there will be no vacuum of power that will happen. Rest assured with our consumers that our services will remain.

SunStar Cebu tried to reach Donoso and Daluz for comment, but to no avail.“They kept on insisting that there is no due process of what’s happening right now, but preventive suspension of our GM and suspension of our board of directors is part of the due process and they can find it in different jurisprudence,” Lapid said. Nothing to hide“If we are not hiding in the water district, there should be no problem at all,” he said. He said the dispute between LWUA and the MCWD BOD is “illogical” as the water district needs LWUA to approve its pending tariff rate increase application.Lapid said the tariff rates need to be raised because of the water district’s contracts with different water suppliers which come at a higher cost.“We badly need our tariff increase because of our new (water) sources,” he said.He said if the increase is approved, then commercial users will subsidize the water rate of residential users.“Mao gyud na ang design sa tariff nato sa (That’s how the tariff was designed at the) MCWD,” he said. On March 15, Daluz, along with Pato and Seno, was suspended for a period of six months in order for the LWUA-installed interim board to investigate issues surrounding the water district.But the trio has refused to step aside or to cooperate with the LWUA’s investigation.According to the Cebu City Government’s public information office (PIO), the interim board was able to pass the resolution suspending Donoso only after it was finally able to hold its first meeting inside the MCWD building on Friday.Gaining entry to the board room was not easy, as the MCWD’s executive committee refused to recognize them.According to the Cebu City Government’s report, Jorge Gabriente, MCWD assistant general manager for technical services, said Donoso had instructed him not to let the interim board enter the MCWD board room. But Gabriente later relented after a lawyer for the LWUA said he could face charges for defying them.SignatoriesThe resolution suspending Donoso was signed only by MCWD interim board chairperson Maria Rosan Perez, vice chairman Noel Samonte, secretary Anabelle Gravador, and member Rey Asterio Tambis, as fifth member, lawyer Manolette Fel Dinsay, was not present. It is not known when Tambis and Dinsay were installed as members of the interim board, as the LWUA’s order installing the interim board on March 15 mentioned the designation only of Perez and engineers Samonte and Gravador as interim board members.The PIO further reported that newly installed MCWD acting manager Lapid, a lawyer, asked his fellow employees to comply with the LWUA’s order and cooperate with the regulatory body’s investigation.The MCWD, under Daluz as chairman, entered into various contracts for desalination projects in Barangay Opao, Mandaue City and in Barangay Mambaling, Cebu City to each deliver 25,000 cubic meters of water per day to the water district. However, these were criticized due to the expensive water rate, which would affect the coffers of the water district. In a tit for tat, the interim board is set to issue a resolution to bar Donoso and suspended MCWD board directors Daluz, Pato and Seno from entering the premises, the PIO said. Last March 21, LWUA Chairman Ronnie Ong said the reason the regulatory body suspended MCWD’s board led by Daluz was so the LWUA could investigate MCWD for its high NRW, alleged failure to comply with procurement laws, and its questionable application for a 70 percent water rate hike. Daluz, Pato and Seno have been holding on to their posts even after Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama fired them last year and replaced them with retired major general Melquiades Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan and Nelson Yuvallos last Oct. 31, while retaining Danilo Ortiz and Earl Bonachita as board members.The three, as well as the now suspended general manager Donoso, have questioned the LWUA’s authority to undertake the March 15 takeover of the board and sought the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel’s (OGCC) opinion on the matter which, handed down on March 26, was interpreted by both the LWUA and the MCWD as being in their favor.Following the release of the OGCC’s opinion, the LWUA’s lawyers last April 3 served the final demand notice to Daluz, Seno and Pato to vacate the premises of MCWD’s office and stop usurping the authority of its interim board — which was again ignored by the trio.The MCWD provides water services to the cities of Cebu, Talisay, Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu, and the towns of Cordova, Consolacion, Liloan and Compostela.

(DVG, TPT) licensed online casinos THE acting general manager of the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) will work with the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) while it is investigating high non-revenue water (NRW) and other issues at the water district.John Dx Lapid, MCWD division manager for customer care, said he will also formulate measures to alleviate the effects of the El Niño phenomenon during his tenure.In a phone interview on Saturday, April 13, Lapid told SunStar Cebu that the LWUA’s interim board informed him on Friday, April 12, about his temporary appointment following the 90-day preventive suspension of general manager Edgar Donoso. The LWUA suspended Donoso on Friday because he continued to defy the interim board’s request to turn over documents regarding the MCWD’s transactions and he failed to respond to a five-day notice to explain his decision. Lapid said the MCWD will provide the LWUA with whatever it needs in its investigation.“They are asking for signed contracts, pending projects, mga COA (Commission on Audit) disallowance, so mao ni ang ilahang gipangayo nga documents (those are the documents they are asking for),” Lapid said. “By Monday, I will be meeting the managers, the rank-and-file, and (I) will assure them that there will be no vacuum of power that will happen. Rest assured with our consumers that our services will remain. Walay mausab (Nothing will change),” he said.The interim board has requested for police to be deployed at the MCWD office in downtown Cebu City to prohibit suspended Donoso and regular board of directors chairman Jose Daluz III, along with vice chairman Miguelito Pato and secretary Jodelyn May Seno from interfering with the investigation and from pressuring water district employees. SunStar Cebu tried to reach Donoso and Daluz for comment, but to no avail.“They kept on insisting that there is no due process of what’s happening right now, but preventive suspension of our GM and suspension of our board of directors is part of the due process and they can find it in different jurisprudence,” Lapid said. Nothing to hide“If we are not hiding in the water district, there should be no problem at all,” he said. He said the dispute between LWUA and the MCWD BOD is “illogical” as the water district needs LWUA to approve its pending tariff rate increase application.Lapid said the tariff rates need to be raised because of the water district’s contracts with different water suppliers which come at a higher cost.“We badly need our tariff increase because of our new (water) sources,” he said.He said if the increase is approved, then commercial users will subsidize the water rate of residential users.“Mao gyud na ang design sa tariff nato sa (That’s how the tariff was designed at the) MCWD,” he said. On March 15, Daluz, along with Pato and Seno, was suspended for a period of six months in order for the LWUA-installed interim board to investigate issues surrounding the water district.But the trio has refused to step aside or to cooperate with the LWUA’s investigation.According to the Cebu City Government’s public information office (PIO), the interim board was able to pass the resolution suspending Donoso only after it was finally able to hold its first meeting inside the MCWD building on Friday.Gaining entry to the board room was not easy, as the MCWD’s executive committee refused to recognize them.According to the Cebu City Government’s report, Jorge Gabriente, MCWD assistant general manager for technical services, said Donoso had instructed him not to let the interim board enter the MCWD board room. But Gabriente later relented after a lawyer for the LWUA said he could face charges for defying them.SignatoriesThe resolution suspending Donoso was signed only by MCWD interim board chairperson Maria Rosan Perez, vice chairman Noel Samonte, secretary Anabelle Gravador, and member Rey Asterio Tambis, as fifth member, lawyer Manolette Fel Dinsay, was not present. It is not known when Tambis and Dinsay were installed as members of the interim board, as the LWUA’s order installing the interim board on March 15 mentioned the designation only of Perez and engineers Samonte and Gravador as interim board members.The PIO further reported that newly installed MCWD acting manager Lapid, a lawyer, asked his fellow employees to comply with the LWUA’s order and cooperate with the regulatory body’s investigation.The MCWD, under Daluz as chairman, entered into various contracts for desalination projects in Barangay Opao, Mandaue City and in Barangay Mambaling, Cebu City to each deliver 25,000 cubic meters of water per day to the water district. However, these were criticized due to the expensive water rate, which would affect the coffers of the water district. In a tit for tat, the interim board is set to issue a resolution to bar Donoso and suspended MCWD board directors Daluz, Pato and Seno from entering the premises, the PIO said. Last March 21, LWUA Chairman Ronnie Ong said the reason the regulatory body suspended MCWD’s board led by Daluz was so the LWUA could investigate MCWD for its high NRW, alleged failure to comply with procurement laws, and its questionable application for a 70 percent water rate hike. Daluz, Pato and Seno have been holding on to their posts even after Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama fired them last year and replaced them with retired major general Melquiades Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan and Nelson Yuvallos last Oct. 31, while retaining Danilo Ortiz and Earl Bonachita as board members.The three, as well as the now suspended general manager Donoso, have questioned the LWUA’s authority to undertake the March 15 takeover of the board and sought the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel’s (OGCC) opinion on the matter which, handed down on March 26, was interpreted by both the LWUA and the MCWD as being in their favor.Following the release of the OGCC’s opinion, the LWUA’s lawyers last April 3 served the final demand notice to Daluz, Seno and Pato to vacate the premises of MCWD’s office and stop usurping the authority of its interim board — which was again ignored by the trio.The MCWD provides water services to the cities of Cebu, Talisay, Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu, and the towns of Cordova, Consolacion, Liloan and Compostela.
