Cebu City officials have called on the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) to reduce water losses in preparation for the upcoming dry season. The request comes as local authorities work to ensure a stable water supply for residents and businesses. The dry season, typically from March to May, often leads to lower water levels in reservoirs and increased demand for water.
The MCWD has been tasked with improving infrastructure and monitoring water distribution to minimize waste. Officials emphasize the need for efficient management to prevent shortages. Recent reports indicate that water losses in the region have remained a concern, with some areas experiencing intermittent supply.
Local leaders are also exploring alternative water sources and conservation measures to support the city’s growing population. The situation highlights the ongoing challenge of balancing urban development with sustainable resource management. Efforts are expected to intensify as the dry season approaches.
