Manila Water Company's 200MLD East Bay Treatment Plant on Track for Completion this Year

​Manila Water's 200 million-liter-per-day (MLD) Water Treatment Plant (WTP) under the East Bay Phase 2 project is set to be completed in the third quarter of 2025.

​Once finished, the new P7.84-billion facility would greatly improve the company's service coverage over the East Zone concession, benefiting localities along the Laguna Lake shoreline in Rizal, as well as the cities of Taguig, Pateros, and Pasig.

This facility is an essential part of the East Bay Water Supply System, which is projected to supply over 2.08 million customers. This new facility will significantly increase the water supply and relieve pressure on the Angat water system. It would also assist to maintain water service in Metro Manila, particularly during the dry months.

The treatment facility in Brgy. Kabulusan in Pakil, Laguna, will be linked to a transmission pipeline that will go along the local roads of Pakil and Jalajala, following the nautical highway of Central Bay Laguna Lake, passing the Binangonan-Cardona, and continuing along the shorelines of West Bay Laguna Lake.

“As the East Bay Phase 2 Water Treatment Plant is taking shape, we are also constantly improving and expanding our network distribution. That is why we greatly appreciate our partner local government units in Rizal for assisting us in our construction activities,” Manila Water Communication Affairs Group Director Jeric Sevilla said.

As of December 2024, the East Bay PH2 WTP was 65.41% complete. Manila Water's project team, with backing from the local government and commercial contractors, is working hard to fulfill the planned completion date of Q3 2025.
