“We thank the local government units and the residents for their continued cooperation throughout the desludging activities. Since the desludging cycle happens every five years, I strongly encourage our customers to have their septic tanks emptied, even if they are not yet full, during their scheduled date to avoid hassles in the future brought about by clogging and septic tank overflows,” Manila Water Corporate Communications Affairs Group Director Jeric Sevilla said.
Manila Water’s desludging program is part of the company’s efforts to protect waterways and reduce pollution.
Wastes from septic tanks undergo stringent treatment processes in Manila Water’s septage treatment plants before they are discharged back to bodies of water.
