The Boracay Island Water Company (BIWC) will have enough
water supply amid the threat of El Niño.
This is according to BIWC Customer Care Service Officer
Acs Aldaba as the 22nd International Conference of the Philippine
Water Works Association took place at the island Thursday.
Although admitting that some higher areas in Boracay
experienced “low water supply to no supply of water” at some point during the
LaBoracay and long weekend, Aldaba explained that this is due to an
“unordinary” water supply demand resulting from the influx of thousands of
tourists and was tripled during the Holy Week.
Aldaba also said, that while there will be no problem
with the water supply from the Nabaoy River in the next several years, this
should not be a reason for us to take for granted responsible water use.
The government meanwhile is bracing for the coming of El
Niño in the country.
