BCWD CONDUCTS THERMAL SCANNING
In an effort to help prevent the spread of Corona Virus Disease -19 (COVID-19), Butuan City Water District (BCWD) is now conducting thermal scanning and alcohol spraying to the hands of all its officers and employees, customers, and guests entering its premises.
This measure ensures that no one who is possibly infected with COVID-19 will get inside the premises of the water district and spread the virus to more people.
“The virus does not fly, it does not follow you, it needs human to transmit or move from one place to another, you cannot take it by breathing, it’s through hand that touches the face...,” says a DOH representative.
Meanwhile, to adhere to the government’s directive on the practice of Social Distancing, BCWD has just implemented the new payment schedule on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Effective March 16, 2020, BCWD is open from 7:00AM to 5:30PM, no noon break. This new schedule is aimed at decongesting the paying concessionaires during Mondays and Tuesdays, when volume of paying concessionaires is high as compared to Wednesdays to Fridays. Thus, on Wednesdays to Fridays, BCWD is open from 8:00AM to 5:00PM, no noon break; while on Saturdays, BCWD is open from 8:00AM to 11:30AM.
Furthermore, those concessionaires with current water bills may also pay their bills in BCWD Collecting Centers. Please be reminded that only those with current bill or BLUE BILL can pay in BCWD Collecting Centers. RED BILLS should be paid in BCWD’s main office only.
Accredited BCWD Collecting Centers are the following:
1. Berry Happy Mart (Pizarro St., Brgy. J.P. Rizal);
2. C5 Hardware (S1 Cassion Building, near Rosewood Plains Subdivision, Villa Kananga);
3. Clarhez Ticketing Services (National Highway, Brgy. Libertad, Butuan City);
4. JPL Bayad Center (Brgy. Ampayon, Butuan City near Public Market);
5. TAM Payment and Remittance Center (Unit 1 Wing-on Corporate Building, Brgy. Holy Redeemer).
6. Veterans Bank
