In July 16, 1980, the Concepcion Water District (CWD) was formed and was issued the conditional certificate of conformance (CCC) No. 034 on September 25, 1980 by the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA). CWD was born as a self-reliant quasi-public entity with the implementation of the Provincial Water Utilities Act of 1973 or PD 198, which created the water districts nationwide.
