Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System
The MWSS Privatization
On August 01, 1997, the operation of Metro
Manila’s waterworks and sewerage system
was privatized under a Concession
Agreement for 25 years.
The entire service area was divided into east
and west service areas with specific targets
for water supply, sewerage & sanitation.
Assets still belong to MWSS.
Objectives
Transfer financial burden to the private
sector
Improve service standards
Increase operational efficiency
Minimize tariff impact

The Approach
1997 Concession Agreement Vision:
Centralized STPs and Dedicated Sewer Systems
Huge Investment = Higher Tariff
Significant Construction Impact
Customer Resistance (Water as a Priority)
Difficulty in Securing Land

Challenges
● Solid Waste & Drainage Maintenance
♦ Drainage
Drainage systems are clogged with solid wastes
systems are clogged with solid wastes
♦ Indiscriminate dumping of solid wastes in canals,
creeks, river systems
♦ Wastewater utility should not be the solid waste
manager
Technology Options that will give a smaller
footprints

Challenges
● MWSS/Concessionaires need to comply with the Clean Water Act and to
comply with the decision of the Supreme Court in the clean up and
rehabilitation of Manila Bay
