DAVAO CITY — A flood-prone barangay in Cabadbaran City, Agusan Del Norte, is now benefiting from the timely completion of a flood control project by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) along a section of the Cabadbaran River. This project provides essential protection for residents, particularly during the rainy season.

DPWH Secretary Manuel M. Bonoan, citing a report from DPWH Region XIII Director Pol M. Delos Santos, announced that the flood mitigation project was funded under the 2024 General Appropriations Act (GAA) with a contract amount of P96.3 million.

The project addresses long-standing issues of flooding and soil erosion in the Calibunan-Mabini section of the Cabadbaran River in Barangay Calibunan.

The project involved the construction of a 280-meter concrete revetment along the river’s right side, reinforced with structural steel sheet piles to combat soil erosion.

Excavation and embankment activities were also conducted to ensure the stability and longevity of the flood control structure.

“By completing this project three months ahead of schedule, we have fulfilled our commitment to protect the lives and properties of the people in Cabadbaran City, especially those living near the riverbanks,” said Director Delos Santos.

The DPWH Agusan Del Norte District Engineering Office implemented the flood control structure along the Cabadbaran River in Barangay Calibunan, ensuring enhanced safety for the community.
