SOME residents in Barangay Vito in the town of Balamban, Cebu, are forced to buy and use purified water for taking a bath and washing dishes after the water they receive from Balamban Water District developed a discoloration, leading them to suspect contamination . Sitio Subida , Vito resident Bob McQuaid, an American national, sent photos to SunStar Cebu of the water coming from their faucets, showing a brownish color that resembles mud.
He also said their water bill has increased by more than P200 now compared to when the water supplied to them was clear and clean.“It’s much more because they say to run the water to see if it gets clear to use. It’s only good for watering plants,” said McQuaid.AdvisorySunStar Cebu tried to reach Balamban Water District through Messenger for a statement but the water district has yet to respond as of press time.
