Pham Hong Phuong, Head of the Son La – Lai Chau hydropower plant’s management board, said reservoir water accumulation is an important step to prepare for the operation of the 1st turbine later this year. “The water accumulation plan has been well prepared. People, who live below the reservoir level, have been evacuated to safe places. The reservoir bed and legacy have been collected and restored by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, the General Department of the Environment, and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment. The construction of related components has been done and ready for water accumulation.”
