MANILA, Philippines – Manila Water emptied a total of 117,075 septic tanks in its service area last year through its intensified desludging caravan.
As part of its regulatory compliance and commitment to sustainability, Manila Water provides monthly desilting services to its customers to ensure that household wastewater is properly treated before being discharged into water bodies.
Prior to the scheduled desilting, Manila Water also conducts hygiene information, education and communication sessions to inform customers about the public health and environmental benefits of desilting.
Customers are urged to attend these IECs and avail the desilting services.
