A sea turtle nest, potentially belonging to the rare hawksbill species, was discovered by the patrol team of the Hon Cau Marine Protected Area in Tuy Phong district, in the coastal south-central province of Binh Thuan on last week.
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MoNRE) has agreed not to dump nearly one million cubic metre of waste mud discarded by a power plant into Binh Thuan province’s sea following public outcry against the plan.
A group of eight scientists arrived in the central province of Binh Thuan on July 27 to assess the environmental protection plan related to the planned dumping of waste into the sea.
