Failure to complyMaynilad’s concession area in the west zone is currently not suffering from a similar water shortage. The MWSS’ concession agreements with the two water distributors allocate 1,600 million liters per day (MLD) of water from Angat in Bulacan province to Manila Water, and 2,400 MLD to Maynilad, he said. In January, San Miguel began operating its Bulacan water project meant to supply 24 water districts in the province. Water tankers capable of carrying 10 kiloliters may have to make 14,000 truck trips daily to bring water to the affected areas. Areas affected by the water shortage are: Mandaluyong (all barangays), San Juan (five barangays), Pasig (seven barangays), Angono (three barangays), Antipolo (10 barangays), Taytay (three barangays), and Binangonan (12 barangays).
