CEBU CITY – The Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) entered into another bulk water supply agreement with a private firm to provide an additional water supply exclusively for Talisay City in a deal that was described as the start of a “better life” for the Talisaynons.

The contract signing between MCWD and the joint venture of Watermatic International Ltd. and Tubig Pilipinas Group Inc. was sealed last August 8 at the congressional office of Rep. Rhea Gullas in Minglanilla town, Cebu.

Under the deal, Watermatic International Ltd. will be responsible for installing approximately 6.2 kilometers of pipelines from the processing plant to two injection points on N. Bacalso Ave. near Pooc Road and Rafael Rabaya St. near the intersection with Ilang-Ilang St. in Barangay Lagtang.Watermatic International Ltd. is an Israeli firm.

The agreement incorporates a provision to turn over the facilities to MCWD at the end of the 25-year contract or when the contracted volume of 136,875,000 is already delivered, whichever comes earlier provided that it will not be earlier than 15 years. “The water supply initiative is primarily intended for the City of Talisay. I hope that the inclusion of the facility turnover provision, along with technology transfer, sets a precedent for future endeavors. Rather than being a one-time occurrence, these types of provisions should establish a model for other capital-intensive projects, such as Bulk Water Supply Agreements,” MCWD General Manager Edgar Donoso said.
