Foreword

The Tagkawayan Water District was formed on the 6^th day of June, 1980 through Presidential Decree No. 198 by former President Ferdinand E. Marcos better known as the “Local Water Utilities Act of 1973” as amended by P.D. Nos. 768 and 1479. The Official turn-over of ownership, management & operation was on the 31^st day of July 1980 through the Tagkawayan Sangguniang Bayan then led by former Municipal Mayor Atty. Vicente G. Salumbides, Jr. using the defunct NAWASA operated by the Philippine National Railways. It was on September 12, 1980 that TWD received her CCC No. 130 from the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) that enabled her to operate under standard specifications.

I.               WATER DISTRICT HISTORY

TWD received her CCC No. 130 on September 12, 1980 from the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) that enabled her to operate under standard specifications.

Sakang River is the present surface water source of TWD. The point of origin of this river is approximately 3 kms. North of the Poblacion. It flows in a southeast direction where it joins other creeks in the east and finally empties into the Tagkawayan River with a discharge of 25l/s. Due to increasing demands TWD constructed in 1998, 2 deepwells one at Bamban with 20l/s discharge and at Payapa with 18l/s discharge.

TWD was recategorized as Medium WD last Aug. 2005, but in April 2012 was again recategorized as Category D during Pres. Benigno Aquino’s Administration.

TWD serves 12 barangays out of 45, it cannot serve the others since they are located on the area not accessible to TWDs transmission/distribution lines, some are on the mountain zone, others on the highway zone, while others are along the railroad zone. If given the chance to be financed with the DPWH and other government institutions, like the LGU, TWD is planning to construct transmission lines at Brgy. Aliji and Brgy. Laurel passing through the Quirino Highway and along the railroad.
