Davao City Water District advises its customers of two schedules of water service interruptions on January 19, 2019 that will affect all areas served by Panacan Water Supply System (WSS). First schedule is from 12:01 AM to 3:00 AM and second schedule is from 6:00 AM to 10:00 AM.
Affected are some Sasa areas, particularly, Airview Heights, BAT Compound, Bayview Village, Cabayugan I, II, and III, De Guzman Village, Delbros Village, Doña Caridad Subd., Doña Socorro Village, Landmark Village I and II, Mahayahay Settlers, Doña Mercedes Village, Nelia Ville Subd. I and II, Purok Bangoy, Sagrada, San Jose Village, San Lorenzo Ruiz Village, San Vicente, SAPAHA, St. John, Suha Village, and Sunrise Village; and

Garcia Highway (from Panacan Relocation to DPWH Depot), and portion of Davao-Agusan Road (from Landmark Village 1 to Lasang).
DCWD’s production wells under Panacan WSS will be affected by the Davao Light and Power Company’s (DLPC) power interruptions on said date needed to facilitate the reconstruction of their sub-transmission lines near Holcim Plant. With the power interruptions, the affected facilities will not be able to operate and produce water, and in turn, will not be able to supply water to the affected areas.
Although the power cuts are shorter in duration, DCWD needs additional time for re-switching on of the affected facilities, pressure build up, and line delivery, thus the longer duration of water service interruptions.
On behalf of the DCWD management, general manager Engr. Edwin V. Regalado asks for the understanding and cooperation of would-be affected customers. They are also advised to store enough water prior to the scheduled water service interruption. Water supply may be restored earlier if DLPC’s work goes smoothly or later if unforeseen problems arise.
The general public may visit DCWD website (www.davao-water.gov.ph) and official Facebook page (www.facebook.com/davaowater) or call the Central Information Unit / Call Center through the 24-hour hotlines 297-DCWD (3293), 0927-7988966, 0925-5113293, and 0908-4410653 for the latest daily water updates, concerns, queries, and other matters pertaining to DCWD services.
