SNAP, NPC, and PSALM ensure safe operations of Ambuklao and Binga dams

As part of the collective effort to foster safety and meaningful collaboration, SN Aboitiz Power-Benguet (SNAP-Benguet), the National Power Corporation (NPC), and the Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corporation (PSALM) held the annual public information drives (PIDs) on the Ambuklao and Binga Dams and Reservoir Operations from June 4 to 6, 2024. 

Local communities of barangays Ambuklao, Dalupirip and Tinongdan which host Ambuklao and Binga hydro plants learned about dam operations and safety measures. Around 400 community members participated in the PIDs. 

SNAP-Benguet and NPC equip communities with Forest Fire Response Training

Simulation of controlling fire from spreading takes place among participants of the Forest Fire Response and Basic First Aid & Life Support training conducted by SNAP-Benguet and NPC.

In recent years, the frequency of forest fires have posed a significant threat to rural communities. These fires, exacerbated by dry conditions, can spread rapidly, and rural communities are susceptible to such incidents.
