REPLY TO THE MATH OF SUPPLYING WATER

REPLY TO THE MATH OF SUPPLYING WATER Hereunder is the reply of DPWH National Building Code Development Office OIC-Executive Director Atty. John Alexander S. Belderol dated August 8, 2024 as regards the concern: "This has reference to the letter received by this Office on July 08, 2024 relative to the electronic mail sent by Mr. Ramon Ike V. Seneres dated July 07, 2024 regarding his article entitled "The Mathematics of Supplying Water". The document proposes a method addressing the challenges in meeting the rising demand for potable water in the Philippines and outlines various methods for water collection and filtration systems. Given the nature and scope of the topics discussed, the National Building Code Development Office (NBCDO), which specializes in building standards regulation, is not in a position to provide a detailed feedback on the issues presented, if any. Moreover, the aforementioned letter did not specify the intended purpose or objectives clearly, which are essential in fully understanding the context and implications of the letter as well as in formulating an informed response. The sender has not stated an action to be taken. Due to lack of a request for specific action, it would appear that the submission is intended only to provide information and/or suggestion. For these reasons, we are unable to determine what action is immediately required and forward the matter to a specific office for disposition of the concern. Relative thereto, we respectfully return the endorsement of the abovementioned letter without action other than to acknowledge receipt of the same, until such time that further details are submitted showing clearly that this office may take cognizance thereof.
