Drainage systems to cost 3.4 billion USD
Vietnam will need approximately 3.4 billion USD to build drainage and waste water treatment systems in urban areas and business districts of the country’s three key economic zones between now and 2020.
According to a recent decision signed by Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung, this amount does not include sums paid in compensation for ground clearance.
The drainage system planned for the northern region will be designed to connect with the basins of six major rivers, namely Nhue, Cau, Hong (Red), Thai Binh, Lach Tray, Cam rivers, and Quang Ninh province’s coastal area.
The central region’s drainage basin will include several main river basins that serve five cities of Da Nang , Hue , Tam Ky , Quang Ngai and Quy Nhon.
The drainage system in the southern region will be divided in to serve three main areas, including the high-terrain area covering Dong Nai, Binh Duong, Binh Phuoc and Tay Ninh provinces, the area of Ho Chi Minh City, and the area of Long An and Tien Giang provinces.
The PM added that the use of materials and technology for each waste water treatment system must be appropriate to the concrete conditions of each respective area.
