 Current Situation

35 percent reside in informal "slum" settlements with

improper sanitation facilities
 Current Situation

In 1997, only 3% of Metro Manila had access to sewerage system

Current Situation

More than 80% of Metro Manila use septic tanks most of which are
improperly designed and not maintained
 Current Situation

Wastewater continue to discharge to rivers, more than half of

which come from households
 Current Situation

a result, all of Metro Manila’s major river systems are biologically dead
with zero dissolved oxygen levels most of the year
 Current Situation

Approximately 31 percent of illnesses monitored

for a five-year period were caused by water-
borne sources
 Current Situation
Negative impacts to health, loss in tourism and fisheries
total to billions of pesos annually.

Total: P 67 B/year

SEWAGE

SEWERAGE SANITATION (Septic Tanks)

● Sewer Network ● Septic Tanks, anaerobic / sedimentation
● Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) / Communal ● Regular siphoning, once in 5-7 years
Septic Tank (CST)
● Septage Treatment Plant (SpTP)

● 31 STPs, 22 CSTs
● 92 Desludging Trucks
● 220 km sewer network
● 2 SpTP
