Marcos: 30 Underground Water Catchment Sites Set for Flood Control

by

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. announced that 30 underground water catchment sites have been identified to help control flooding, with excavation work set to begin as soon as possible. The national-level announcement affects flood-prone areas including Metro Manila and Quezon City. Quezon City residents frequently experience flooding during heavy rains, so new underground water catchment infrastructure could help reduce street-level flooding and property damage. This is a critical infrastructure update that may improve daily life and disaster preparedness in the coming rainy seasons. Specific locations, timelines, and budgets for the 30 sites have not yet been publicly released. Residents should monitor official government announcements for excavation schedules and possible traffic or road closures near the identified sites.
