VietNamNet Bridge – Hanoi authorities and Japanese consultants are working on a project to construct two plants to treat waste water in a bid to further improve the environment in the capital city in the 2010-2020 period.

To Lich River in Ha Noi.

Once completed, those plants are expected to improve water quality in Hanoi’s rivers, particularly the To Lich.

The To Lich river, which has linked to Hanoi’s development for 1,500 years as a source of irrigation water supply to suburban agricultural land and fish farms, has been chronically polluted by untreated or badly treated waste water and solid waste from many nearly production establishments and households.
