Manila Water will implement a 1.17-percent FCDA on its average basic charge of Php 28.52 per cubic meter, resulting in a Php 0.78-decrease in the monthly bill of households consuming 10 cubic meters or less, Php 1.73 for those consuming 20 cubic meters or less, and Php 3.52 for those consuming 30 cubic meters or less.
Maynilad will also employ a 0.26-percent FCDA to its average basic charge of Php 36.24 per cubic meter.
