Maynilad extends water service interruption to Nov. 29
Maynilad has extended its rotational water service interruptions until November 29, 2020, to address sludge buildup in one of its treatment plant basins.
The cleanup is necessary due to turbid water caused by Typhoon Ulysses.
One of the affected basins is already operational, and another is being refilled.
The removal of sludge from the third basin is taking longer than anticipated, requiring an additional five days for completion.
This extended timeline also includes restoring the plant's water production and refilling reservoirs.
Initially, the water service interruptions were scheduled to end on November 24.
Maynilad anticipates that the duration of daily water service interruptions will decrease as water accumulates in the pipelines.
