Investment in a centralized urban wastewater collection and treatment system is
However, in the province, apart from Vinh Hung town which has a centralized wastewater treatment system, the remaining localities do not have a centralized urban wastewater collection and treatment system. Wastewater generated from households is only preliminarily treated through the households' septic tanks and then discharged into receiving sources; at the same time, some urban areas have not completed the construction of centralized wastewater treatment systems according to approved planning, specifically: Go Den residential area (Ben Luc district), Phuoc Thanh residential area (Can Giuoc district), etc.
Therefore, to address the shortcomings and limitations of urban areas without centralized wastewater treatment systems, the People's Committee of Long An province included this in the Long An Provincial Planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050 (approved by the Prime Minister in Decision No. 686, dated June 13, 2023); At the same time, the Provincial People's Committee directed the Department of Construction to coordinate with the Department of Agriculture and Environment and the People's Committees of the districts to prepare documents for project approval procedures and implement the construction of urban wastewater treatment plants (to be built in 2025-2026) according to the planning.
Specifically, in Tan An city, the wastewater treatment stations to be built include: Eastern Tan An domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity of 30,000m³/day and night; Northern Tan An domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity of 30,000m³/day and night. Can Duoc district will invest in Can Duoc town domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity of 7,500m³/day and night; Rach Kien domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity of 1,500m³/day and night.
Can Giuoc District will invest in a Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant with a capacity of 15,000m³/day and night. Ben Luc District will invest in Ben Luc Urban Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant with a capacity of 13,500m³/day and night; and a Go Den Urban Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant with a capacity of 2,500m³/day and night.
Duc Hoa district will invest in Duc Hoa town domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity 8,000m³/day and night; Hau Nghia domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity 14,000m³/day and night; Hiep Hoa domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity 3,000m³/day and night. Kien Tuong town will invest in a domestic wastewater treatment station, capacity 10,500m³/day and night.
At the same time, the province will assign departments, branches and localities to urge residential area investors to complete infrastructure according to approved planning. In case of non-compliance, the Long An Provincial People's Committee will be consulted to handle according to regulations./.
