Project Detail |
Tay Ninh town, located in Southeast Vietnam, is the chief town of Tay Ninh province connecting the central highland region to the Mekong delta region. The existing drainage system of Tay Ninh town is used for both storm water and untreated waste water, and it mostly serves key central wards of the town. The mix of storm and waste water is directly discharged into channels without any treatment. Also, due to the lack of an efficient drainage system, about 10% of the inner city is flooded on average every second year. The “Tay Ninh Wastewater Collection and Treatment System Project” has been therefore initiated to improve urban sanitation conditions in Tay Ninh town through the construction of drainage and waste water treatment facilities, and through raising residents awareness on health and sanitation by organizing educational activities and public events. The project is managed by the Tay Ninh Provincial People’s Committee through a Project Management Unit, managed by the Tay Ninh Water Supply and Sewerage Company. It is planned to be implemented over 3 years.
