The wastewater treatment station has the total investment caital of more than 16,000 billion VND.
Director of the municipal Department of Construction Le Van Duc said that the project includes four components, including the building of the Yen Xa wastewater treatment station.
Other three components aim to build 52.61 km-long drainage systems along the Lich, Lu, and Nhue rivers.
Speaking at the event, Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen Duc Chung said pollution in the city’s rivers and lakes is an urgent problem as urban wastewater is currently collected and discharged into the rivers of Kim Nguu, Set, To Lich, and Lu and lakes in the city.
According to Chairman Nguyen Duc Chung, the project is expected to significantly improve the rivers’ water quality and the city’s environment.
