Water service interruption worsens
Excerpt
Water users are in for a greater ordeal starting today as Manila Water Co. Inc. and Maynilad Water Services Inc. begin longer hours of service interruption as regulators are expected to further reduce supply coming from Angat Dam, where the level is expected to breach the critical low level on Saturday. Monitoring by the weather bureau showed that as of Friday morning, water level at Angat was pegged at 160.28 meters above sea level (masl). With the stock receding at about 0.4 meter daily, the level is expected to be lower than the critical mark of 160 masl by Saturday.
