THE Bacolod City Council approved a resolution asking the House of Representatives to conduct an inquiry in aid of legislation on why the Bacolod City Water District failed to provide clean and potable water in the city.
Gamboa said considering the importance of water in the lives and survival of humans, it is of primordial importance that Congress should look into why Baciwa failed to provide adequate clean and potable water, which cracked Baciwa to the vulnerability of a takeover by private economic predators like the Prime Water.
“However that until now, despite said loan, Baciwa’s water coverage in its franchise area remains to be below 60 percent, of which, some water supply areas with facilities of Baciwa have minimal water supply at limited time, thick turbid water flow or no water at all,” he added.
