Department of Agriculture(DA)

Hi! I would like to request for existing drilling records for the province of Iloilo. I have got a few of them with me from the provincial office. I am hoping that your agency has more of it.

This records will be used to create a groundwater model of the Jalaur River Basin.

Thank you very much.
