Water released from 4 dams—Pagasa

Water was released Tuesday from four dams in Luzon as continuous rains spawned by Typhoon “Pedring” brought their levels to spilling level if they haven’t spilled over yet.

As of 10 a.m., the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical Atmospheric Services Administration (Pagasa) said that two gates were opened at one meter each from the Ipo and Ambuklao dams while Binga dam opened three and Magat dam one, with openings of two meters each.

Water at the Ipo dam reached 100.5 meters, over and above its spilling level of 100.2 meters; the Ambuklao dam, 761.21 meters, with spilling level at 762.0; Binga, 572.96, spilling level at 575; Magat, 188.33, spilling level at 193.
