Quang Ngai People's Committee has just submitted a document to the Provincial People's Council requesting to adjust the project policy of the rainwater and wastewater collection and treatment system of Quang Ngai City in the southern area of ​​the downstream of Tra Khuc River, with a total investment of 1,000 billion VND.

Quang Ngai requests to adjust the project policy for the rainwater and wastewater collection and treatment system of Quang Ngai City in the southern area of ​​the downstream of Tra Khuc River.

The People's Committee of Quang Ngai province has submitted a document to the Provincial People's Council, requesting to adjust the project policy of the rainwater and wastewater collection and treatment system of Quang Ngai city in the southern area of ​​the downstream of Tra Khuc river.

Accordingly, the project of Rainwater and Wastewater Collection and Treatment System of Quang Ngai City, Southern Basin of the Lower Tra Khuc River, was decided by the Provincial People's Council on investment policy, with a total amount of about 1,000 billion VND and was assigned to the Project Management Board for Investment and Construction of Civil Works, as the investor. However, in the process of implementing and appraising the project Feasibility Study Report, the Investor found that it was necessary to add some items.

In addition, some items under the investment policy have been invested by the People's Committee of Quang Ngai City in other projects, including renovating the gates of Nghia Chanh Lake; dredging the sewers of Bau Ca Lake.

According to regulations, the project of collecting and treating rainwater and wastewater in Quang Ngai city in the southern area of ​​the downstream of Tra Khuc river has not been approved for investment by the competent authority; there are changes in the investment policy, so it is necessary to carry out procedures to adjust the project investment policy.

The People's Committee of Quang Ngai province requested to adjust the investment policy to include renovating Bau Ca lake sluice gates; dredging and renovating existing canals and culverts from Nghia Chanh lake, flowing to Tra Khuc river.

Investing in and upgrading some drainage lines in Quang Ngai city that are draining into Tra Khuc river; investing in a new Nghia Chanh pumping station (at Bau He sluice). Building a wastewater collection system in the core area of ​​Quang Ngai city, in the drainage basin to Tra Khuc river and clusters of pump station, separation wells, and wastewater treatment plant on the southern bank of Tra Khuc river.

It is known that the project of collecting and treating rainwater and wastewater in Quang Ngai City, the southern basin of the lower Tra Khuc River, originally named the Centralized Wastewater Collection and Treatment System in Quang Ngai City, was decided by the Provincial People's Council in December 2019, with a total investment of about 300 billion VND and the Provincial Traffic Works Project Management Board was assigned as the investor.

However, during the implementation process, along with a number of other reasons, the investor realized that with the approved scale and total investment, it only ensured the collection and treatment of local wastewater at the southern discharge gates, draining into the Tra Khuc River; it did not ensure the thorough treatment of wastewater from Quang Ngai City draining into the southern basin of the Tra Khuc River.

The project's investment objectives do not include rainwater drainage and flood prevention, while rainwater and wastewater drainage infrastructure are being built together. If only wastewater is collected without combining rainwater drainage treatment and flood prevention, the investment efficiency will not be maximized...

Therefore, the People's Committee of Quang Ngai has submitted and received approval from the Provincial People's Council to adjust the investment policy, with the total amount raised to an estimated VND 1,000 billion. In addition, the assigned investment unit has also changed, from the Quang Ngai Traffic Project Management Board, to the Provincial Civil Works Management Board.
