PUBLIC ADVISORY 📢📢📢
Subject: Implementation of Pro-Rated Billing Scheme Due to Water Supply Shortage
In line with Board Resolution No. 04-006, Series of 2026, the Dalaguete Water District informs all affected concessionaires of the implementation of a pro-rated billing scheme due to ongoing water supply shortages.
🔹 Coverage:
This applies to concessionaires regardless of classification who have recorded water consumption of five (5) cubic meters or below.
🔹 Billing Adjustment:
Water bills will be computed on a pro-rated basis proportional to the concessionaire’s actual meter consumption during the billing period.
The adjustment will be implemented for a period of two (2) months, for the affected areas such as:
•Sitio Cambanog
•Jolomaynon
•Sacsac
•Tapon
•Coro
•Mananggal
•Banhigan
•Cawayan
🔹 Reason for Implementation:
The water shortage, caused by reduced source capacity due to drought conditions and the El Niño phenomenon, has resulted in intermittent or insufficient water supply in affected service areas.
🔹 Possible Extension:
Subject to evaluation and management discretion, the implementation may be extended for an additional two (2) months if water supply conditions do not improve.
This measure aims to ensure fairness in billing, maintain public trust, and support customers affected by limited water availability.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
