With a reservoir capacity of twenty (20) million liters, the Cayetano Pumping Station and Reservoir is one of the components of the company’s Long-Term East 3 Distribution Network System, which includes the 3.7-kilometer C-6 line, the 3.5-kilometer Ruhale Line, and the 3-kilometer Cayetano Avenue line.

“Water security is one of the major pillars of Manila Water’s Service Improvement Plan to ensure the continuous provision of 24/7 water supply, even to the farthest fringes of our concession area.

“These facilities, once completed, will lessen the company’s dependence on Angat as the major water source for Metro Manila and will address the need for greater water demand in Taguig and adjacent areas amidst the challenges brought about by cyclical El Nino patterns due to the impact of climate change on water supply,” says Manila Water’s Corporate Communication Affairs Group Director Jeric Sevilla.
