Abstract

In the year 2021, former president Rodrigo “Roa” Duterte ordered the distribution of the idle or unused government lands to the poor. This act given by the former president helps a lot of people especially the indigenous peoples. The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) also planned to give lands for farmers to use it for agricultural purposes and it was eventually permitted by the former president. In this research, a quantitative method and a Descriptive-Investigative research design was used to collect the necessary data to present the current situation of ASAFA Community and also to guide the researchers to give recommendations and suggestions. And in the year 2023, ASAFA experiencing a serious lack of clean water access as well as a good management inside the community itself. Although this study is limited to just give the initial information about the unknown community of ASAFA, it still aims to give a warning for the residents about the danger of using the water from the solar-powered pump. It was found that both total coliform and E-Coli content exceeds the PNSDW limit. The distribution of water is also not enough though the observations and computations made by the researchers. Observations via testing of the water discharge, measuring the pipes, and determining the kind of pipes and connections used.
