Poblacion water project completed


By Graal Omaweng
SAGADA, Mountain Province -- A completed water project for Barangay Patay Poblacion is ready for inspection and blessing to be attended by the project donor and beneficiaries here.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its program A Single Drop for Safe Water  provided materials for project and conducted  water community  management and technical trainings  to volunteers to manage it.

Municipal and barangay government units gave some amount as payment of labor. Residents contributed free labor laying out the  pipes while others provided free lunch and snacks,.

The source of the water comes from a  spring located in a 2.3 hectare  forest land purchased by the  barangay  through the help of Mayor  Eduardo Latawan  Jr.  

Seven tapstands   were placed  in strategic areas in the barangay including those at the Bomabanga  elementary and high school for the Level 2 waterworks.

The Barangay Patay Rural Waterworks and Sanitation Association aims for  Level  3  for water pipes to  reach homes of household members.
