Two sets of water service interruption are scheduled by Davao City Water District to allow its crews to conduct separate improvement projects.
The first water cut is scheduled from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM of June 19 due to emergency replacement of headshaft and stuffing box bushing to avoid burning out of electric motor at Tugbok Production Well No. 5. Customers being served by Tugbok Water Supply System will experience low water pressure to no water particularly in Tugbok Quarry, Deca Homes Subd. in Tacunan and all their immediate environs.
Second water interruption is set from 8:00 PM of June 21 until 4:00 AM of June 22. The eight-hour water cut will affect residents of Barangay Talomo specifically Talomo Proper, Sunnyville Subd., Talomo Teachers Village I, AR Village, PNB Village, Manggahan, Solariega Subd., Josefina Village, PLDT Subd., Talusa Village, Mandaya-Talusa Village, Talomo Cemento, New Washington Village I and II, Benedictine Sisters Road, Gulfview Executive Homes and Versari Village.
Said water cut is needed to allow the tapping of the newly installed 10-inch diameter Ductile Iron Pipe to the existing 14-inch and 10-inch diameter Mortar Line Coated Steel Pipe (MLCSP) for the transmission / distribution pipeline from Talomo Cemento to Gulfview in Brgy. Talomo. Completion of the said project will help improve the water pressure in the area.
In behalf of DCWD management, acting general manager Edwin V. Regalado appeals for the understanding and cooperation of would be affected customers as water supply may be restored earlier if work goes smoothly or later if unforeseen problems arise.
