Manila Water Co. Inc. is set to spend P833 million for projects set for implementation this year in Rizal Province which include 23 mainline extension and individualization projects.
The company said once completed, these projects are expected to bring better water quality, pressure and supply to a total of 45,205 families in the province.
Eleven mainline extension projects will be done in several municipalities in Rizal while 10 are in Antipolo City as individualization projects will also be done in Town and Country Executive Village in Antipolo and Aurora Subdivision in Angono.
