Filipino and Chinese employees of the New Centennial Water Source Kaliwa Dam Project, being constructed by China Energy Engineering Group Co., Ltd. (CEEC), have participated in a cleanup drive along the Dalig River in Teresa town, Rizal province on June 11 as the rainy season began.<\/p>\n
In a news release Wednesday, the CEEC said Kaliwa Dam Project employees helped in removing garbage, accumulated silt, weeds and floating debris from the river and drainage nets to prevent flooding.<\/p>\n
\u201cDredging work may not be the most laborious, but it is certainly the dirtiest. In the beginning, it didn’t seem like much, but it turned out to be quite a lot to clean up. However, the thought of cleaning the river and providing a safer and healthier living environment for residents, gives us the momentum to power through,\u201d project staff Chen Danyue said.<\/p>\n
The Kaliwa Dam Project volunteers were able to clean a length of 300 meters and removed over 300 kilograms of various types of garbage from the Dalig river.<\/p>\n
The CEEC said it will continue to adhere to the concept of sustainable development, maintaining the local ecological environment and working together to build a beautiful home.<\/p>\n
According to the Metropolitan Water Sewerage System, the PHP12.2-billion Kaliwa Dam Project has reached a construction progress of 30 percent and will be completed by 2027.<\/p>\n
The 63-meter dam is expected to supply an initial capacity of 600 million liters of water per day for over 15 million residents in Metro Manila and other nearby areas. (PNA)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
