BACOLOD CITY, Negros Occidental, Philippines – The issue on the lack of water is caused by a lot of factors, one of which is the regular power interruptions which disrupt operations of their water wells.
This was explained by Bacolod City Water District acting general manager Michael Soliva, as he said the services of the water utilities firm only shut down because during maintenance, when there are repairs, and in cases of power failures.
Soliva also told seasoned broadcaster Yasmin Dormido in a special interview that this is the reason why Prime Water decided to purchase Generator 6 to augment power in the water stations in case of power failures.
Prime Water has been subject of complaints from concessionaires who complain that water services are cut off during power interruptions, or during certain times of the day.
