VIRAC, Catanduanes- Six sitios in three towns of the province will be able to have power soon after the National Electrification Administration (NEA) released the amount of P2,004,067.48 for the project. | |||
The funding was secured by Congressman Cesar V. Sarmiento from the NEA during the House Committee deliberation on the agency’s budget recently. | |||
According to NEA Deputy Administrator for Field Operations, Edilberto Bassig , the sitios covered by the project are Abaca and Harapan in Brgy. Abihao (Baras), Caranguian in Barangay Oga (Pandan), Buenavista in Barangay Salvacion (Pandan), Caruyo in Brgy. Balangonan (Pandan), Dayhagan in Brgy. Suchan (Bagamanoc). | |||
First Catanduanes Electric Cooperative, Inc. | |||
(FICELCO), however, revealed that the project would actually involve eight sitios with a total cost of P1,864,799.80, as a number of the sitios in the NEA list have already been energized. | |||
The cooperative management is reportedly including other unenergized sitios in the bidding, set for October 13. The unexpended funding would either be returned to NEA or allocated for the extension of distribution lines to unserved sitios. | |||
The residents of the covered barangays are thankful for the continuous effort of the government for the improvement of their areas. | |||
