ZAMBOANGA CITY, May 16 (PNA) – The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is building up a PhP2.2 million communal water system project in Barangay Taluksangay, 19 kilometers east of City Hall. | |||
The project is being undertaken in close coordination with the Taluksangay barangay council. | |||
ICRD assistant Gabriel Anthony Daclan said Saturday the water system project was expected to be completed and operational by the end of June or mid-July this year. | |||
Daclan said the project would benefit the residents of Taluksangay, a waterless barangay, as well as the 373 families relocated to the place after they were displaced during the 21-day September 2013 siege. | |||
At present, the residents of Taluksangay buy water from nearby barangay of Talabaan while the local chapter of the Philippine Red Cross provides water to the displaced families. | |||
Daclan said somee 2.4 kilometers of pipeline were being laid from the water source at Sitio Gapuh, Barangay Talabaan to reservoir at the campus of the Taluksangay National High School. | |||
Daclan said water from the source had passed the potability tests conducted by the Zamboanga City Water District (ZCWD). | |||
He said that eight communal taps, where the people could draw water, would be connected to the reservoir. | |||
He said the works were being undertaken by 30 internally displaced persons (IDP) hired through the cash-for-work program. | |||
“Taluksangay is a rural area and the people are facing difficulty since the place has no water. We are happy to find a water source at a property owned by the Nuño family,” he said. | |||
The barangay chairman of Taluksangay is Abdurahman Nuño, the husband of second district Rep. Lilia Nuño. | |||
Daclan said the project, once completed, would greatly alleviate the plight of the residents of Taluksangay and the relocated IDP families. | |||
Daclan said the project would be turned over to the barangay council of Taluksangay for it to manage the water system upon completion. | |||
