It has been a no-brainer that water is primarily the
most important thing needed for survival. That’s why, Water remains as the most
essential and primary CHP of the community.
Last exposure, the team started the
distribution of different water treatment apparatuses to select households.
More of these treatment methods were distributed to households that collect
their drinking water from unprotected sources during a seminar on Safe Storage
of Drinking Water by guest speakers from the Department of Science and
Technology conducted at the barangay covered court.
As a result, 50 out of the 50 households
that collect drinking water from unprotected water sources practice proper
water treatment methods and safe storage of drinking water.
Re-chlorination of main water sources
was also done as per monthly schedule.
And a Barangay Resolution for Monthly
Chlorination of Water Sources has been raised and approved by the barangay
council.
In the last 3 months of the team’s
exposure, the team intends to check on the final drafting of the barangay
resolution for regular chlorination of main water sources, and re-testing of
the 3 main water sources of the barangay to ensure the effectiveness of the
chlorination.
