MANILA, Philippines — Maynilad Water Services on Monday announced daily water supply interruption in several areas in Metro Manila starting Wednesday due to Angat Dam falling below its minimum operating level.
The water interruption will cover several areas in Caloocan City, Malabon City, Manila, Valenzuela City, Navotas City and Quezon City, and will be implemented from 7 p.m. to 4 a.m., with some localities to be affected until 6 a.m.

The announcement, as posted on their Facebook page, did not indicate the duration of the water service interruption period.
Maynilad said this comes “as the raw water allocation for [Metropolitan Water and Sewerage System] has been brought down to 48 cubic meters per second due to the elevation of Angat Dam falling below its minimum operating level of 180 meters.”
Angat Dam supplies potable water to NCR and nearby provinces.
“The allocation was lowered in an effort to preserve water in Angat Dam, given the possible worsening effects of El Niño in the coming months. However, this also means that Maynilad will get less supply than it needs to sustain normal service levels,” it added.
It however said that since Ipo watershed still gets some rains, the daily water service interruptions may not be immediately felt by July 12.
This may also be shorter than the projected time as Maynilad generates additional water from various supply augmentation projects.
“At any rate, affected customers are advised to prepare for this scenario. Keep enough water stored for your needs during the hours when supply will not be available. Please store water in clean, covered containers,” Maynilad continued.
