The light to moderate rains spawned by the northeast monsoon on Thursday, Jan. 5, and enhanced by the Low Pressure Areas have raised the water levels of the three big dams in the province of Bulacan to spilling levels.
The PDRRMO said that at 8 a.m. on January 5, the water level of Angat Dam was 213.21 meters and it rose to 215.03 meters at 5 p.m. which is above its normal high water level of 212 meters. To maintain the stability of the Angat Dam and draw down the reservoir elevation to safe levels, the dam’s operators will open its spillway gate to discharge gradually the excess water brought about by continuous rains in northern and Central Luzon.
