THE Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has poured P209.7 million into constructing three flood control structures in the province of Nueva Vizcaya to reduce massive flooding in communities and extensive damage to crops, cropping land and properties along the Magat River.
With a total length of 226 kilometers, the Magat River is in Northern Luzon, which originates in Aritao town, where the Santa Fe River joins the Marang River.
