RODZEL :
Sec Dizon, honorable mayor Isko Moreno, Seek help of an external expert on pumps engg, like Japan
TOYO engg, oe EDCOP, from the stn engrs mouths they usually use PUKPUK only, perhaps i suggest we do Breakdown maintenance first, before we budget 100 million again. If its working sometimes thru PUKPUK, and runs again and it can be mere MISALIGNMENT of parts only that can loose contact causing worn out parts only for replacement or over load power . Wala ba sila dyan Experienced know how engr???
However sir if this a VALID finding, the P774-million
facility, while physically completed 2020 and paid for, did not have a proper and permanent electrical connection to power grid as a result of failure to coordinate with LGU.
This is a fundamental and critical failure that renders
the entire pumping station useless. A pumping station
is essentially a large, power-intensive machine.
Without a power source, the pumps cannot be turned ON, and therefore cannot fulfill their function of moving floodwater. Moreover check if its already UNDERSIZED base on the present increasing volume of flood if Manila, otherwise we really nerd to replace existing pumping system.
