Once completed, the cumulative capacity of Manila Water’s sewage treatment plant will increase to 410 MLD, and sewer connection will be expanded to around 26 percent from current coverage of 15 percent.
AYALA-LED Manila Water Company Inc. is set to start today, 1 September, the pipelaying activities for its largest sewerage treatment plant (STP) in Pasig City.
In a statement on Saturday, Manila Water said that the pipe-laying activities will commence today until 15 January 2020 along C. Raymundo Ave. from Guanio St. to Mercedes Ave. Works will be conducted 24 hours and seven days a week.
The plant is expected to treat 100 million liters per day of used water and serve 765,000 households surrounding the Pasig River
The pipes will be connected to the Ilugin STP in Barangay Pinagbuhatan, which is part of the company’s North and South Pasig Sewerage System Project.

Once completed, the STP is expected to treat 100 million liters per day (MLD) of used water and serve 765,000 households surrounding the Pasig River. It is in coordination with the Pasig local government, under its Used Water Master Plan of the company which aims to ensure that water returned to rivers is non-pollutant.
Manila Water said that it will fast-track the pipelaying at the request of the Pasig local government to help alleviate traffic congestion in the area.
“The Office of the Mayor has conducted consultations with Manila Water for them to complete their sewer pipelaying activities along C. Raymundo Ave. the soonest time possible. This is aligned with the City’s traffic management strategies to help minimize traffic inconvenience to Pasig residents and motorists,” Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto was quoted as saying.
For his part, Manila Water corporate project management group director Robert Baffrey said Manila Water is committed to work towards excellent project execution as well as effective stakeholder engagement.
“We are working closely with the Pasig City Engineering Office and TPMO (Traffic and Parking Management Office) to be able to efficiently complete our roadworks and projects within the city so Pasiguenos can enjoy the benefits soon,” he said.
The construction of the Ilugin STP started in November 2014 and laying of the sewer network will intercept the used water from households and convey it to Ilugin STP.
Once completed, the cumulative capacity of Manila Water’s sewage treatment plant will increase to 410 MLD, and sewer connection will be expanded to around 26 percent from current coverage of 15 percent.
