Expand eligibility to non-HUCs and municipalities; and

Allow Water Districts (WDs) to directly apply for the NG share/grant through the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA).

NEDA RECOMMENDATIONS

That LWUA be the administrator of the NG grantfor WD and DPWH be the grant administrator forLGUs.

That set prioritization and selection criteria thatwould give precedence to the 17 HUCs and alsogive premium to major tourism destination area.

That tariff remains affordable for low-incomehouseholds (HHs)
