This is the proposed area of the Reservoir. [[Columbato(Column of Stone) Zamboanga City|Mt. Columbato (Pulumbato)]] will be located to the right of the Dam. It is a natural border. The area of the reservoir (LAKE) will be approximately 4 square kilometers. That is a good sized lake that can conserve all the water during the rainy season. The Tumaga river is known to have very disastrous floods every 30 to 40 years. Not just an ordinary flood but flooding that covers even the streets of Guiwan, Putik and other neighboring barrios. No more flooding incidents. No more lives lost. No more properties destroyed. No more water rationing. No more blackouts. | This is the proposed area of the Reservoir.

There will be an extra benefit to this project. It will be an inland water resort. Great for fresh water fishing and boating. Zamboanga City does not have a large inland body of water. We only have ponds. This will be about a 400 to 600 hectare lake. The water level of the lake will be about 250 meters, enough to generate pressure for power | There will be an extra benefit to this project. It will be an inland water resort.
