The completed flood control project, funded under the 2024 General Appropriations Act (GAA), involved dredging and constructing 400 linear meters of concrete slope protection along the Hermosa River.
In a report to DPWH Secretary Manuel M. Bonoan, DPWH Region 3 Director Roseller A. Tolentino stated that the project aims to strengthen the stability of riverbank system and erosion control causing siltation, by maintaining the large capacity of water flowing along the channel.
According to him, this project will improve water flow by keeping the river channel clear and preventing blockages caused by eroded materials, thereby protecting nearby residences and farmlands from being destroyed.
