THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) has identified 12 barangays in the cities of Cebu, Talisay and Mandaue that have been “severely affected” by water supply shortages amid a continued drop in daily production.These are barangays Umapad, Opao, Alang-alang, Looc and Subangdaku in Mandaue City; Lorega San Miguel, Binaliw, San Jose, Talamban and Pit-os in Cebu City; and Cansojong and San Roque in Talisay City.However, residents in other barangays not included in the list are also struggling with their water supply, with one consumer reporting inconsistent service since January.This is occurring as Cebu grapples with the ill effects of the drought caused by the El Niño phenomenon, with its effects expected to persist until the end of May.MCWD spokesperson Minerva Gerodias told SunStar Cebu on Thursday, April 11, 2024, that they continue to face a struggle in providing water supply as its production has plummeted, with a reduction of 46,748 cubic meters of water each day.The local water utility’s daily output now stands at just 254,252 cubic meters as of Wednesday, April 10, which translates to a 15.53 percent decrease from the utility’s maximum production capacity.She said the maximum water production capacity under normal circumstances is 301,000 cubic meters per day.MCWD serves the cities of Cebu, Mandaue, Talisay and Lapu-Lapu, and the towns of Consolacion, Liloan, Compostela and Cordova.Last March 5, Tommy Gonzalez of the production department of MCWD reported that they were already losing 25,000 cubic meters from their daily water production, at the time when Cebu was still placed under a dry spell.Currently, Gerodias reported the halving of production at the Jaclupan wellfield in Talisay City to 14,193 cubic meters per day, from the usual 30,000 cubic meters, and at the Buhisan Dam to 3,143 cubic meters per day from 6,000 cubic meters.Lusaran Hydro’s water production in Cebu City has also been cut in half to 15,000 from 30,000 cubic meters daily. Only the water supply from the Luyang River in Carmen town has not been affected.Affected residentsThe ongoing drought has severely hampered the utility’s ability to meet the increasing water demand of the community.Gerodias said with the current deficit in their daily water production, approximately 46,000 households will experience low supply to intermittent water supply.Not in the listMariecon Guinto, a graduating radiologic technology student from Southwestern University Phinma, said that since January, they have been experiencing intermittent water supply in their residence in Sitio Zapatera in Barangay Luz, Cebu City.Guinto, 24, said their water supply has regularly become low, and they experience no water supply for at least two days a week, with interruptions lasting for three to four hours each day.She added that because of the unreliable water connection, they have learned to ensure that there is enough water in stock for their family of seven households.Jessa Faith Pepito, 25, a junior architect from Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City said that earlier this week, they started to experience a 14-hour water service interruption every day, affecting their family of 10 household members.She said the water supply comes back only every 8 p.m. until 6:30 a.m., so people are now losing sleep just to fetch water for the next day.Barangays Luz and Duljo Fatima are not in the list of barangays MCWD defined as severely affected.InterventionGerodias said to augment the water supply in severely affected barangays, they follow a schedule in deploying water trucks to supply these areas.In Mandaue City, water trucks visit Barangay Umapad on Mondays and Thursdays; Barangay Opao, Tuesdays and Fridays; Barangay Alang-alang, Wednesdays and Saturdays; and Barangay Looc, Sundays.Barangay Subangdaku receives deliveries on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays; the trucks also serve Mandaue Public Market in Barangay Centro on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Cebu City, the trucks are deployed to Barangay Lorega San Miguel Tuesday through Saturday; Barangay Binaliw on Mondays, Fridays and Sundays; and barangays San Jose and Talamban on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.Water trucks go to Barangay Pit-os on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, as well as to the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.In Talisay City, Barangay San Roque receives deliveries on Tuesdays and Saturdays, while Barangay Cansojong is served on Wednesdays and Fridays.Desalinated seawaterGerodias also addressed the expected initial delivery of 30,000 cubic meters of desalinated water that is supposed to come this month.Desalinated water is seawater that has undergone a process to remove salts and minerals, making it suitable for drinking and other purposes.Gerodias said there has been a delay as they are still coordinating with their contracted water suppliers from Barangay Opao in Mandaue City and Barangay Mambaling in Cebu City for the deliveries.“We are still hoping that they can deliver within the month. They are making adjustments in their plants, but the pipe laying is already complete. We are eagerly awaiting the operation of their plants,” she said.Additionally, she urged the public to practice water conservation as they face the issue of water supply shortages amid the drought.Earlier, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) Visayas announced that Cebu is currently experiencing a drought, which will persist until the end of May.Drought is classified as an extended dry condition, characterized by either five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly below-normal rainfall.Jhomer Eclarino of Pagasa Visayas previously defined 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.He also said last month that on average, Cebu receives 60.9 millimeters of rainfall in March. However, this year, it has recorded only 9.8 millimeters, representing an 84 percent reduction. Why Filipinos have a propensity on gambling? Philippines THE Regional Development Council in Central Visayas (RDC 7) will endorse to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. three priority projects in the region for funding allocation.National Economic and Development Authority (Neda) 7 Director Jennifer Bretaña, the RDC 7 chairman, and Bohol Gov. Erico Aris Aumentado will endorse to Marcos next month the following priority and high-impact projects: (a) the Feasibility Study (FS) for the Negros-Cebu-Bohol Friendship Bridge with Power/Water/ICT (information and communications technology) transmission lines, (b) Metro Cebu Integrated Flood Control and Water Supply Development Program, and (c) the Tamlang Valley Sustainable Agriculture for Growth and Resiliency Project.The RDC 7 will also endorse to the President two secondary regional priority projects, the FS and the Master Plan of the Siquijor Airport Development and Bohol’s 10 Big-ticket Projects including FS and Master Plan.“Their impact is region-wide, not only on physical connectivity but especially the awaited Cebu-Bohol as well as Cebu-Negros Oriental Bridges because they will not only increase physical connectivity but there is a design for a transmission line ready for power, water and ICT so that it will be easier for water supply, power supply for inter-province,” said Bretaña Thursday, March 14, 2024.With the improved physical connectivity between the three provinces, Bretaña said the friendship bridges will have a “tremendous” impact and increase economic opportunities and access to social services in these provinces.They will also contribute to meeting the power and water supply needs of the provinces and improve their digital connection. During the RDC meeting in Cebu City Thursday, Nonato Paylado of the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH) 7 said the initial alignment of the project would connect Cordova town in Cebu to the municipality of Getafe in Bohol. The proposed project will also support the development of Tamlang Valley in Negros Oriental into an Agri-Industrial Estate that will become the food basket of Central Visayas, Bretaña added.This will advance food security, one of the priority programs of the Marcos administration.Central Visayas currently groups the provinces of Cebu, Bohol, Siquijor and Negros Oriental. But the Senate and House of Representatives have passed bills to form the Negros Island Region that would comprise Negros Occidental, Negros Oriental and Siquijor, leaving just Cebu and Bohol in Central Visayas.FloodingAddressing the flooding in Metro Cebu also has to be prioritized, Bretaña said.This involves the conduct of an FS for the Mananga Dam as an additional source of water and retention pond for upstream waters of the cities of Cebu and Talisay, and the construction of the Bridges and Flood Control Structures to reduce flooding. “These are big-ticket projects. Their costs are also big, but we hope that the President would support them in terms of ensuring and endorsing those three projects for funding in the central offices of the implementing agencies so these can be funded maybe if not for 2025, maybe for 2026,” Bretaña said.With President Marcos’s support, Bretaña said they will include in the fiscal year 2025 or 2026 the funding allocation for the FS of the Friendship Bridge and the Metro Cebu Flood Mitigation Projects.Funding for the FS of the Friendship Bridge will ensure that the project is technically, economically and environmentally feasible.She added that the FS will also identify if the proposed project will not affect the declaration of the Danajon Bank Double Barrier Reef (DBDBR) as a Protected Landscape and Seascape. The DBDBR is situated in the waters between Cebu and Bohol. The same will also be studied for the Tañon Strait between Cebu and Negros Oriental. The projects may also be funded through other financial agencies including through Official Development Assistance, grants, and loans.As for the Tamlang Valley project, Bretaña said it can be funded by multiple agencies including the Department of Agriculture and the National Irrigation Administration (NIA).Secondary priority Under the Secondary Regional Priority Programs and Projects (PAPs) endorsement, RDC 7 seeks funding for Bohol’s Wastewater Treatment Project, Integrated Highway Development, Light Rail Transit, Sabo Dam Flood Control Project, Bohol Business Park, Ubay Airport Development Project, Light Industry Economic Zone Development, Bohol-Cebu Friendship Bridge, Bulk Water Supply, and Talibon Cluster Sanitary Landfill. Bohol’s 10 Big Ticket FS and Master Plan will require P200 million, which was proposed to be funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency.Also endorsed by the RDC 7 Full Council was a request to the DPWH to include in its 2025 budget proposal additional funding of P148.50 million for the preparation of the Central Visayas Road Network Master Plan. The RDC 7 Full Council also endorsed the inclusion of the 2025 budget proposal of the proposed PAPs of the DPWH 7 and NIA 7 in the Central Visayas Regional Development Investment Program in the budgets of their respective central offices.

Send money to Gcash Wallet in Philippines CEBU City Mayor Michael Rama has threatened to file charges against government officials and groups calling for a halt to the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) project, as their actions could delay the project and worsen traffic.Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia could be included in the lawsuit “if she includes herself among those opposing the project’s completion,” the Cebu City News and Information reported.Rama reacted to the League of Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP) Cebu Chapter’s resolution, which called for the project’s immediate stoppage. “Anyone stopping [the project], in a way, I will be constrained to file cases. And I am preparing cases already,” Rama said on his program, “Ingna’ng Mayor,” Thursday, March 7, 2024. The mayor said LMP Cebu Chapter members must “mind their own business” and they should “respect the city’s autonomy.”The mayor, however, did not disclose the specific cases he intends to pursue against those opposing the CBRT project.LMP Cebu resolutionThe resolution, dated Feb. 28, 2024, and approved by LMP Cebu Chapter president Daanbantayan Mayor Sun Shimura, asserts that the CBRT project “should be totally abdicated because it has caused irreparable injury to the economy of Cebu and has contravened the national heritage and cultural laws of the Philippines as it obstructs the view and facade of the Cebu Provincial Capitol which is a heritage building.” It further said the project affects individuals from far-flung areas in the province who have transactions in Cebu City, where most key national government agencies and health facilities are located.LMP Cebu Chapter, which groups 44 municipalities, supports the Provincial Board’s (PB) two resolutions calling for a halt of the CBRT project due to traffic and heritage concerns. One of the four bus stations for the CBRT’s first package is under construction in front of the Capitol building, which is already over 80 years old. The PB has said that the Capitol building is covered by the National Cultural Heritage Act of 2009, which requires the protection of structures older than 50 years and authorization from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines for construction in designated buffer zones.Last week, Garcia issued a cease and desist order halting the construction of bus stations.The group made the resolution public in a meeting with the governor at the Capitol in Cebu City on Wednesday night, March 6.Rama agreed to Garcia’s call to halt the construction of the bus stations in front of the Capitol, “but the whole infrastructure should not be stopped.”He threatened to demolish the bus station if the CBRT proponents didn’t address the Provincial Government’s concerns and provide an acceptable design.Solve traffic woes in provinceThe mayor said the LMP Cebu Chapter should focus on resolving the traffic congestion in their jurisdiction. He identified the towns from Argao to Carcar City in the south, and towns of Consolacion to Liloan in the north as having traffic problems. The mayor urged the LMP Cebu Chapter to prioritize addressing the persistent traffic congestion within their area of jurisdiction. He highlighted the southern towns ranging from Argao to Carcar City and the northern towns extending from Consolacion to Liloan as experiencing significant traffic challenges that require immediate attention.“Magbuhat lang unta sila’g resolution ana (They should pass a resolution about that),” Rama said.He added that traffic isn’t just a problem in Cebu City, but also in the cities of Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu.Osmeña Blvd. ownership Meanwhile, Garcia reiterated on Wednesday evening that a portion of the Osmeña Blvd. in front of the Capitol building towards Fuente Osmeña Rotunda is owned by the Provincial Government. This was Garcia’s reaction to former Cebu City mayor Tomas Osmeña, who said he is willing to go to court to reclaim the portion of the Osmeña Blvd. that was donated by his late father, former governor Sergio “Serging” Osmeña Jr., to the Provincial Government if the governor insists on stopping the CBRT.“Get your facts straight,” said Garcia, referring to the former mayor.Tomas is regarded as the brains behind the CBRT, which took 20 years to get off the ground. Garcia told the mayors and officials from various government agencies during a meeting that Capitol’s ownership of Osmeña Blvd. was the result of a land swap deal between the Provincial Government and the Cebu Heights Inc. in the late 1930s. / EHP

We are eagerly awaiting the operation of their plants,” she said.Additionally, she urged the public to practice water conservation as they face the issue of water supply shortages amid the drought.Earlier, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) Visayas announced that Cebu is currently experiencing a drought, which will persist until the end of May.Drought is classified as an extended dry condition, characterized by either five consecutive months of below-normal rainfall or three months of significantly below-normal rainfall.Jhomer Eclarino of Pagasa Visayas previously defined 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.He also said last month that on average, Cebu receives 60.9 millimeters of rainfall in March.

THE Regional Development Council in Central Visayas (RDC 7) will endorse to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. three priority projects in the region for funding allocation.National Economic and Development Authority (Neda) 7 Director Jennifer Bretaña, the RDC 7 chairman, and Bohol Gov. Erico Aris Aumentado will endorse to Marcos next month the following priority and high-impact projects: (a) the Feasibility Study (FS) for the Negros-Cebu-Bohol Friendship Bridge with Power/Water/ICT (information and communications technology) transmission lines, (b) Metro Cebu Integrated Flood Control and Water Supply Development Program, and (c) the Tamlang Valley Sustainable Agriculture for Growth and Resiliency Project.The RDC 7 will also endorse to the President two secondary regional priority projects, the FS and the Master Plan of the Siquijor Airport Development and Bohol’s 10 Big-ticket Projects including FS and Master Plan.“Their impact is region-wide, not only on physical connectivity but especially the awaited Cebu-Bohol as well as Cebu-Negros Oriental Bridges because they will not only increase physical connectivity but there is a design for a transmission line ready for power, water and ICT so that it will be easier for water supply, power supply for inter-province,” said Bretaña Thursday, March 14, 2024.With the improved physical connectivity between the three provinces, Bretaña said the friendship bridges will have a “tremendous” impact and increase economic opportunities and access to social services in these provinces.They will also contribute to meeting the power and water supply needs of the provinces and improve their digital connection. During the RDC meeting in Cebu City Thursday, Nonato Paylado of the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH) 7 said the initial alignment of the project would connect Cordova town in Cebu to the municipality of Getafe in Bohol. The proposed project will also support the development of Tamlang Valley in Negros Oriental into an Agri-Industrial Estate that will become the food basket of Central Visayas, Bretaña added.This will advance food security, one of the priority programs of the Marcos administration.Central Visayas currently groups the provinces of Cebu, Bohol, Siquijor and Negros Oriental. But the Senate and House of Representatives have passed bills to form the Negros Island Region that would comprise Negros Occidental, Negros Oriental and Siquijor, leaving just Cebu and Bohol in Central Visayas.FloodingAddressing the flooding in Metro Cebu also has to be prioritized, Bretaña said.This involves the conduct of an FS for the Mananga Dam as an additional source of water and retention pond for upstream waters of the cities of Cebu and Talisay, and the construction of the Bridges and Flood Control Structures to reduce flooding. “These are big-ticket projects. Their costs are also big, but we hope that the President would support them in terms of ensuring and endorsing those three projects for funding in the central offices of the implementing agencies so these can be funded maybe if not for 2025, maybe for 2026,” Bretaña said.With President Marcos’s support, Bretaña said they will include in the fiscal year 2025 or 2026 the funding allocation for the FS of the Friendship Bridge and the Metro Cebu Flood Mitigation Projects.Funding for the FS of the Friendship Bridge will ensure that the project is technically, economically and environmentally feasible.She added that the FS will also identify if the proposed project will not affect the declaration of the Danajon Bank Double Barrier Reef (DBDBR) as a Protected Landscape and Seascape. The DBDBR is situated in the waters between Cebu and Bohol. The same will also be studied for the Tañon Strait between Cebu and Negros Oriental. The projects may also be funded through other financial agencies including through Official Development Assistance, grants, and loans.As for the Tamlang Valley project, Bretaña said it can be funded by multiple agencies including the Department of Agriculture and the National Irrigation Administration (NIA).Secondary priority Under the Secondary Regional Priority Programs and Projects (PAPs) endorsement, RDC 7 seeks funding for Bohol’s Wastewater Treatment Project, Integrated Highway Development, Light Rail Transit, Sabo Dam Flood Control Project, Bohol Business Park, Ubay Airport Development Project, Light Industry Economic Zone Development, Bohol-Cebu Friendship Bridge, Bulk Water Supply, and Talibon Cluster Sanitary Landfill. Bohol’s 10 Big Ticket FS and Master Plan will require P200 million, which was proposed to be funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency.Also endorsed by the RDC 7 Full Council was a request to the DPWH to include in its 2025 budget proposal additional funding of P148.50 million for the preparation of the Central Visayas Road Network Master Plan.

Gwendolyn Garcia could be included in the lawsuit “if she includes herself among those opposing the project’s completion,” the Cebu City News and Information reported.Rama reacted to the League of Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP) Cebu Chapter’s resolution, which called for the project’s immediate stoppage. “Anyone stopping [the project], in a way, I will be constrained to file cases. And I am preparing cases already,” Rama said on his program, “Ingna’ng Mayor,” Thursday, March 7, 2024. The mayor said LMP Cebu Chapter members must “mind their own business” and they should “respect the city’s autonomy.”The mayor, however, did not disclose the specific cases he intends to pursue against those opposing the CBRT project.LMP Cebu resolutionThe resolution, dated Feb. 28, 2024, and approved by LMP Cebu Chapter president Daanbantayan Mayor Sun Shimura, asserts that the CBRT project “should be totally abdicated because it has caused irreparable injury to the economy of Cebu and has contravened the national heritage and cultural laws of the Philippines as it obstructs the view and facade of the Cebu Provincial Capitol which is a heritage building.” It further said the project affects individuals from far-flung areas in the province who have transactions in Cebu City, where most key national government agencies and health facilities are located.LMP Cebu Chapter, which groups 44 municipalities, supports the Provincial Board’s (PB) two resolutions calling for a halt of the CBRT project due to traffic and heritage concerns. One of the four bus stations for the CBRT’s first package is under construction in front of the Capitol building, which is already over 80 years old. The PB has said that the Capitol building is covered by the National Cultural Heritage Act of 2009, which requires the protection of structures older than 50 years and authorization from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines for construction in designated buffer zones.Last week, Garcia issued a cease and desist order halting the construction of bus stations.The group made the resolution public in a meeting with the governor at the Capitol in Cebu City on Wednesday night, March 6.Rama agreed to Garcia’s call to halt the construction of the bus stations in front of the Capitol, “but the whole infrastructure should not be stopped.”He threatened to demolish the bus station if the CBRT proponents didn’t address the Provincial Government’s concerns and provide an acceptable design.Solve traffic woes in provinceThe mayor said the LMP Cebu Chapter should focus on resolving the traffic congestion in their jurisdiction. He identified the towns from Argao to Carcar City in the south, and towns of Consolacion to Liloan in the north as having traffic problems. The mayor urged the LMP Cebu Chapter to prioritize addressing the persistent traffic congestion within their area of jurisdiction. He highlighted the southern towns ranging from Argao to Carcar City and the northern towns extending from Consolacion to Liloan as experiencing significant traffic challenges that require immediate attention.“Magbuhat lang unta sila’g resolution ana (They should pass a resolution about that),” Rama said.He added that traffic isn’t just a problem in Cebu City, but also in the cities of Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu.Osmeña Blvd. ownership Meanwhile, Garcia reiterated on Wednesday evening that a portion of the Osmeña Blvd. in front of the Capitol building towards Fuente Osmeña Rotunda is owned by the Provincial Government. This was Garcia’s reaction to former Cebu City mayor Tomas Osmeña, who said he is willing to go to court to reclaim the portion of the Osmeña Blvd. that was donated by his late father, former governor Sergio “Serging” Osmeña Jr., to the Provincial Government if the governor insists on stopping the CBRT.“Get your facts straight,” said Garcia, referring to the former mayor.Tomas is regarded as the brains behind the CBRT, which took 20 years to get off the ground. Garcia told the mayors and officials from various government agencies during a meeting that Capitol’s ownership of Osmeña Blvd. was the result of a land swap deal between the Provincial Government and the Cebu Heights Inc. in the late 1930s. / EHP
