ADVISORY
PAG-UPDATE SA KAHIMTANG SA TUBIG
(Hunyo 19, 2026; 2:00 PM)

Ang Butuan City Water District (BCWD) malampusong nakahuman sa pag-ayo sa nagtulo nga 900mm nga main transmission pipeline nga nahimutang sa Barangay Taguibo, Butuan City. Nahuman ang mga buluhaton sa pag-ayo niadtong Hunyo 18, 2026, alas 1:22 sa hapon, ug ang hinay-hinay nga pagpabalik sa operasyon sa transmission line gisugdan alas 1:29 sa hapon sa maong adlaw.

Isip kabahin sa mga kalihokan adiser sa pag-ayo, ang BCWD nagpahigayon og masusi nga pagpauga ug paglimpyo sa lugar nga giatubangan sa trabahoon nga nagtulo na tubo niadtong Hunyo 17, 2026. Gisiguro niini nga ang kanal ug ang palibot sa pipeline hingpit nga walay tubig ug walay pagsulod sa yuta o tubig gikan sa kanal.

Human sa dugang pag-ayo sa nagtulo na tubo, nagpahigayon og pagsusi sa linya diin namatikdan sa BCWD ang mabaga ug lapokon nga kolor sa tubig nga nakita sa blow-off point. Tungod sa paglimpyo sa palibot sa linya adiser gi ayo ang nagtulo na tubo, ang lapokon na kolor sa tubig dili tungod sa pagsulod sa gawasnong kontaminasyon ngadto sa pipeline. Hinuon, kini resulta sa hydraulic scouring ug pagbalik sa mga sediment nga natigom sulod sa transmission main.

Ang hydraulic scouring mahitabo kung ang kusog sa nagaagos nga tubig molabaw sa kapasidad sa mga natigom nga materyales sulod sa tubo nga mopabiling nagpundo, hinungdan nga kini masagol pag-usab sa tubig. Sa usa ka dako nga transmission line sama sa 900mm nga main transmission pipeline, natural nga adunay mga pinong partikulo ug sediment nga magtigom sa mga bahin nga hinay ang agos ug sa ilawom sa tubo sulod sa dugay nga panahon. Sa panahon sa hinay-hinay nga pagpahiuli sa serbisyo ug flushing operations, ang mas kusog nga dagan sa tubig makahatag og igo nga pwersa aron mapataas ug masagol pag-usab kini nga mga sediment.

Tungod sa dako kaayo nga gidak-on ug kapasidad sa transmission line, posible nga daghang natigom nga sediment ang mapalihok sa usa ka higayon, maong mahimong makita ang temporaryong mabaga, kolor kape, ug lapokon nga dagway sa tubig nga mogawas sa mga gitakdang blow-off points.

Gipasalig sa BCWD ang publiko nga ang lugar diin gihimo ang pag-ayo nagpabiling uga sa tibuok operasyon, busa wala’y pagsulod sa yuta o tubig gikan sa kanal nga mahimong hinungdan sa pag-usab sa kolor sa tubig. Ang kasamtangang kahimtang usa ka normal ug gilauman nga resulta sa dagkong flushing ug restoration activities human sa dakong pag-ayo sa transmission line.

Padayon nga ginamonitor sa BCWD ang kalidad sa tubig ug ang kahimtang sa sistema samtang nagpadayon ang mga buluhaton sa pagpahiuli sa serbisyo. Posible nga adunay temporaryong pag-usab sa kolor sa tubig sa pipila ka mga lugar samtang nagpadayon ang flushing operations. Gitambagan ang mga konsumidor nga paagason una sa makadiyot ang tubig hangtod nga kini mahimong klaro sa dili pa gamiton.

Nagpasalamat ang BCWD sa inyong pagpailub ug pagsabot samtang ginakompleto niini ang tanang gikinahanglang lakang aron hingpit nga mapasig-uli ang normal nga serbisyo sa tubig ug mapadayon ang maayong kalidad sa tubig sa tibuok distribution system.

WATER STATUS UPDATE
(June 19, 2026; 2:00 PM)

The Butuan City Water District (BCWD) has successfully completed the repair of the leaking 900mm diameter main transmission pipeline located in Barangay Taguibo, Butuan City. The repair works were completed on June 18, 2026, at approximately 1:22 PM, and the gradual re-energization of the transmission line commenced at 1:29 PM on the same day.

As part of the pre-repair activities, BCWD conducted thorough drying and cleaning of the work site on June 17, 2026 before starting the repair, ensuring that the trench and pipeline area were completely dewatered and free from soil and trench water intrusion.

Following the completion of the repair, BCWD conducted an assessment of the pipeline wherein BCWD has observed a thick, muddy discoloration of water at the blow-off point. Due to the pre-repair activities conducted, it was determined that the discoloraiton is not caused by external contamination entering the pipeline. Instead, the discoloration is attributed to hydraulic scouring and sediment resuspension within the transmission main.

Hydraulic scouring occurs when the force of flowing water exceeds the resistance of accumulated materials inside the pipeline, causing settled sediments to become suspended in the water. In a large-diameter transmission line such as the 900mm main transmission pipeline, fine particulates naturally accumulate over time in low-flow areas and along the bottom of the pipe. During the gradual restoration of service and flushing operations, the increased water velocity generates sufficient force to lift these sediments back into suspension.

Due to the massive size and volume capacity of the transmission line, a significant amount of accumulated sediment may be mobilized simultaneously, resulting in a temporary thick, brown, and muddy appearance of the discharged water at designated blow-off points.

BCWD assures the public that the repair site remained dry throughout the operation, effectively eliminating soil and trench water intrusion as a source of the discoloration. The current condition is a normal and expected outcome of large-scale pipeline flushing and restoration activities following major transmission line repairs.

BCWD continues to monitor water quality and system conditions as restoration efforts progress. Consumers may experience temporary water discoloration in some areas while flushing activities continue. The public is advised to allow water to run briefly until it clears before use.

BCWD appreciates your patience and understanding as it completes the necessary measures to restore normal water service and maintain water quality throughout the distribution system.
