4.  Localize national policies to support sustainable extension of water services

Since LGUs are on the frontline in the provision of services each local government should be able to develop its own local plans, strategies and corresponding budget allotments, consistent with national policies and targets, including those identified in the PWSSR and the MDG. This should help harmonize and operationalize programs to address existing implementation issues and ensure the sustainable and efficient delivery of water supply to waterless and remote areas.
