TO: ALL FAB REGISTERED ENTERPRISES (FREโs), COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHMENTS, RESIDENTS, FACILITY USERS, AND OTHER CONCERNED STAKEHOLDERS
Please be advised that the Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan (AFAB) is currently undertaking an ongoing transition and related activities in connection with the implementation of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement involving the Water Works Distribution System and Sewage Treatment Facilities within the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB).
The transition activities are being undertaken to facilitate the proper turnover, coordination, assessment, and eventual implementation of the PPP arrangement, while ensuring the continued provision of essential water and wastewater services within the FAB.
During this transition period, concerned locators, residents, and stakeholders are advised to:
- Continue observing existing AFAB policies, procedures, and applicable requirements concerning water supply, water distribution, wastewater discharge, sewage treatment, and related utility services unless otherwise officially advised;
- Coordinate with AFAB Freeport Facilities Department (AFAB-FFD) regarding concerns, requests, service interruptions, connections, disconnections, wastewater-related matters, and other activities affecting the water works and sewage treatment facilities;
- Ensure proper operation and maintenance of water and wastewater facilities connected to or interfacing with the AFAB utility systems, as applicable;
- Refrain from undertaking unauthorized modifications, connections, discharges, or other activities that may affect the integrity and operation of the existing water distribution and sewage treatment systems; and
- Monitor official AFAB advisories and notices for succeeding announcements regarding changes in operational arrangements, procedures, service coordination, and other matters that may arise as the PPP transition progresses.
Stakeholders are likewise advised that certain procedures, responsibilities, and coordination mechanisms may be updated or modified as the transition progresses. Any changes affecting the provision or management of water and wastewater services shall be communicated through appropriate official channels.
AFAB recognizes the importance of maintaining the continuity, reliability, and environmental compliance of water and wastewater services throughout the transition period. The cooperation and coordination of all concerned stakeholders are therefore requested to ensure an orderly and effective transition.
For information, guidance, and strict compliance.
