MMDA nag-inspeksyon sa pumping station, EFCOS matapos ang pagtama ng #KardingPH
Nag-inspeksyon si Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Acting Chairman Carlo Dimayuga III sa ilang lokasyon na nakatutok sa flood control and management sa National Capital Region (NCR) kasunod ng pananalasa ng Bagyong Karding.
Kabilang sa ininspeksyon ni Dimayuga ang C-6 Taguig Pumping Station at sa Effective Flood Control Operation System (EFCOS) sa Pasig.
“Water from Marikina River didn’t reach its spilling level because it was diverted to Laguna lake for temporary storage and then released to Manila Bay,” pahayag ng MMDA chief.
Dagdag nito, “Meanwhile, all the eight gates in EFCOS were operational and released 2400 cubic meters of water per second, all of which were released to Laguna lake. This benefitted residents of Marikina.”
Nag-inspeksyon din si Dimayuga sa panukalang lokasyon kung saan itatayo ang pumping station sa Tatalon/Araneta sa Quezon City.
“We are modernizing and adding pumping stations as part of our flood mitigation interventions under the Metro Manila Flood Management Project aimed at improving flood management in NCR,” saad nito.
Magugunitang nakataas ang ahensya sa red alert status simula noong araw ng Linggo at bumuo ng Task Force Karding upang matutukan ang epekto ng naturang bagyo.
