00:00 Even if the water level in the Shanna Reservoir in Luzon is below normal,

00:04 the couple does not care about the expectations of the Waterton Sessionaire.

00:07 The water supply is in danger.

00:09 Maki Polito is on the scene.

00:11 In the near future, when the El Nino is on the rise,

00:17 Eleanor prays that the water gripo will not suddenly disappear.

00:21 One day, maybe four times, I will take a bath in the heat.

00:27 Like me, sometimes the pressure rises.

00:32 We need to cool down.

00:33 The Shanna Reservoir in Luzon is below normal water level,

00:37 but the couple says that they do not care about the expectations.

00:40 The water level in the Angad Dam Reservoir, for example,

00:43 which is supplied by the Metro Manila Water Gripo,

00:45 is almost 210 meters.

00:47 It is said that it is 8 meters higher than the usual level at this time.

00:52 They will start to worry if it is already July but there is no rain.

00:56 If we reach July without rain,

00:58 it may reach a low water level,

01:01 it may reach 180.

01:03 That is why we will monitor it.

01:06 The Waterton Sessionaire also insists that there are water projects

01:09 to get more water.

01:11 We finished these projects earlier

01:14 so that we can maintain the 24/7,

01:17 even during the height of summer or even if the El Nino intensifies.

01:22 Even if the water consumption rises by 10% during the hot season,

01:27 Manila is ready.

01:28 Under extreme conditions,

01:31 the demand for our available supply will increase.

01:35 We said that service interruption should be the last option.

01:41 But what about the reservoirs of other dams in the province

01:43 that are below normal water level?

01:46 The same is true for the San Roque Dam that supplies in Pangasinan,

01:49 the Pantabangan Dam in Nueva Ecija that supplies irrigation to rice fields and crops in Central Luzon,

01:55 and the Magat Dam in Isabela.

01:57 Some rice fields there are running out of irrigation water.

02:01 That is why some farmers are buying diesel for water pumps

02:05 to get water from the river.

02:07 According to Pag-asa,

02:08 We are not sure yet.

02:12 But as we can see,

02:15 the probability of a disaster in the reservoir is high.

02:25 That is the biggest risk.

02:31 The Department of Agriculture has not yet announced

02:33 the first said that the El Nino will have a direct effect.

02:37 For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, for Tutok, 24 hours.

02:41 (upbeat music)
