00:00Despite the rains, the water level is still low in some dams.
00:05That's why the pressure in Tubig Ripo will decrease in Manila and Manila Water.
00:09Tina Pangaliban Perez was there.
00:14Let's save on water.
00:16Since yesterday, DENR lowered the allocation of water for MWSS
00:22to 49 cubic meters per second from the previous 50.
00:26It's small in terms of the total volume.
00:29It's only 2% of the 50.
00:33But the 1 cubic meter per second is good as a supply for about 400,000 people.
00:41Manila Water and Manila Water checked that their supply of Tubig Ripo will not be cut
00:46but the water pressure will decrease in the next few hours.
00:49Before, we used to do this between 10 to 4 a.m.
00:54But now, we have reduced the pressure from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m.
01:01Even if we reduce the allocation for the remaining half of the month of May,
01:06we can still get by even if there is no service in the region.
01:10This is between 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.
01:13Even though it rained the past few days, the water level in Angat and Lamesa Dam still decreased.
01:19Unfortunately, most of the rains, they fall within the metro.
01:23What we need is for the rain to fall in Angat and Hipo Dam or even Lamesa Dam only.
01:31The allocation for the National Irrigation Administration decreased to 12 cubic meters per second.
01:37The reduction in NIA is also significant.
01:40But the good news is most of our bulacan and pampanga farmers are now just about to harvest their crops.
01:48That is why the DENR calls on everyone not to waste water.
01:53It is good if every house has its own water tank.
01:57A drum of NIA that is less than P1,000 can save 200 liters of water
02:04that can be used to water, flush the toilet, and clean the car.
02:09Washing the car using the garden hose, watering our plants and gardens using our garden hose.
02:17We can still throw it away.
02:19And the use of inflatable pools.
02:24Now, we are prohibiting that.
02:27Based on the loss of hope, we may have to save water until June.
02:32In the loss of hope, our rain conditions will still be about 40% less than the usual rainfall we get for May and June.
02:44For GMA Integrated News, Tina Panganipan Perez, Nacatuto, 24 Horas.
