The Eucharistic celebration was followed by the simultaneous Motorcade around the city and the blessing of the Namabbalan Water Filtration System and The Renewable Energy Facility (Solar) in Cataggaman Pardo. The water filtering system is a mechanism adopted by the District to further ensure that the water delivered to the residents of Eastern Barangays is safe and potable. The district also ventured into its first innovation in the use of renewable energy sources, which is considered the first solar-powered pumping station operated by a water district in the region. The Cataggaman Pardo Pumping Station 2 will be the first solar-powered Level III water system for domestic use. This project marks a pioneering step towards sustainable energy practices and sets a precedent for future initiatives in the region.
In the afternoon, the 46th Founding Anniversary Celebration Program was held at the 4th floor of the MTWD building.
The program showcased the launching of the MTWD Systems, namely the MTWD Messenger System and the new version of the Document Routing Slip (DRS) Version 2.20. Another highlight of the programme is the recognition of service awardees for their 10, 15, 20, 25 and 35 โ years of dedicated service with MTWD, and the 2024 Best Employee Award and the Awarding of the 2024 Athletic and Cultural Activity.
Director Engr. Fausta Tanguilan, was also recognized for her 25 years of service as a member of the Board of Directors of MTWD. She has been instrumental in developing effective policies that have contributed to the further development of water services in Tuguegarao City, Solana, and Piat, Cagayan.
