Ormoc eyes Lake Danao water supply project for PPP
THE ORMOC City government signed an agreement last week with the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Center for assistance on various projects that will be proposed under a PPP scheme. One of the priority projects that will be pursued is the Lake Danao Water System Project, which still needs a feasibility study. “We will be proposing to provide source of water from Lake Danao to serve potable water throughout the city,” Mayor Richard I Gomez said in a statement. Following the Sept. 3 agreement signing with the PPP center, Mr. Gomez met with the heads of the local engineering and planning departments to discuss how they can fast-track the Lake Danao plan as well as tourism projects at Quintolimbo, site of an eco-park. Lake Danao is part of the bigger Lake Danao Natural Park, a declared protected area.
