Angat to reduce water allocation for domestic, irrigation uses

“Considering the level of the Angat Dam at around 3 meters below the minimum operating level of 180 meters and to manage relatively low level of the dam, the Board approved the allocation of 44 cubic meters per second for MWSS and 25 cms for NIA for the month of October,” NWRB Executive Director Sevillo David Jr. said on Tuesday.

Angat Dam supplies the domestic water requirements of at least 16.5 million consumers Metro Manila and some parts of Rizal, Laguna, Cavite, and Bulacan; irrigation needs of 28,000 hectares of agricultural land in Bulacan and Pampanga; and hydropower generation from its by-product water releases.
