BORACAY – Water service providers in this island reminded consumers to conserve water amid the onset of El Niño phenomenon.

Maging water-wais at magtipid ng tubig sa panahon ng El Nino,” said Boracay Island Water Company general manager Maria Mabelle Amatorio.

Every household needs to save clean and potable water in preparation for drier days ahead, Amatorio said.

Boracay Tubi System, Inc. (BTSI), a subsidiary of MacroAsia Properties Development Corporation, also advised concessionaires to regularly monitor water leaks in their establishments and houses.

The water utility company officials, however, assured there is enough drinking water supply for residents and tourists in barangays Manoc-Manoc, Balabag and Yapak in Boraca.

Boracay Island is the only tourist destination in the country with a centralized sewerage and water treatment system with Nabaoy River in mainland Malay as its main source of water supply. (With Akean Forum/PN)
