The DCWD's Talomo Booster Station will be affected by Davao Light and Power Company's (DLPC) power interruption on said dates, which is needed to facilitate the installation of statistical meters to DLPC metering points, thus, the water service interruption.
Second set will be from 9 p.m. of Friday, June 16, until 5 a.m. of Saturday, June 17, which will be affecting portion of Malagamot Road (from corner Purok Sta. Cruz to Purok San Isidro Indangan), Purok San Ignacio, Sto. Niño Village, and Nagkahiusa Village).
The water service interruption will give way for the tapping of pipes along Malagamot Road from Indangan Production Well (PW) 1 to Panacan PW 6. Once completed, the project will increase water pressure and add water supply for Cabantian WSS.
DCWD general manager Engineer Edwin Regalado asked for the understanding and cooperation of would-be affected customers. They are also advised to store enough water prior to the scheduled water interruption. Water supply may be restored earlier if work goes smoothly or later if unforeseen problems arise.
