Brief Summary of the Project

The project primarily intends to decrease the poverty incidence in the barangay, in linewith the
thrust of the National Government which is directed towards poverty reduction. It willprovide 221
HHs in the barangay an access to clean and safe water. It also seeks to eliminate theincidence of
water-borne diseases in the barangay which was recorded at 55 cases of skindiseases during the
preceding year.As the more serious sickness which may be brought about by unsafe water will drain
thebudget of the family, availability of safe drinking water is a must to every household. Easy
accessto safe water will also result to savings in time of family members which will pave way for
theaccomplishment of other profitable undertakings.Although 90.5% percent of the households
have water connections provided by thebarangay, it failed to provide them with sufficient supply of
clean and potable water. As such,there is a necessity to tap the appropriate water source in the
barangay through the SALINTUBIGprogram of the DILG.The project will augment LGU
’
s undertaking in improving the water system of thebarangay through its Economic Development
Fund. Barangay Bote has also spent part of itsdevelopment fund for the said water system,
accomplishing the construction of the existingwater tank that has a capacity of 21.6 cu. m and laying
of the existing pipelines of the barangaywater system.
