TACLOBAN CITY— The Tacloban City District Engineering Office (TCDEO) and Prime Water Leyte Metro conducts site inspection on September 18, 2024, to assess locations for the proposed excavation and pipe laying activities. This inspection is a prerequisite for issuing an excavation permit requested by Prime Water Leyte Metro.
The inspection team, led by Engr. Bernardino A. Caalim III and Ms. Retchelle A. Cabidog from TCDEO’s Maintenance Section, was accompanied by Engr. Winston L. Rosas, Head of the Asset Management Department at Prime Water Leyte Metro.
