Currently, the demand for soil and stone for construction far exceeds the local supply, while procedures for new mine exploitation and transportation from neighboring localities are still slow.

Mr. Nguyen Thai Hoa, Deputy Director of the Department of Agriculture and Environment, reported on the progress of procedures related to construction material mines.

Concluding the working session, Deputy Minister Nguyen Viet Hung acknowledged and highly appreciated the decisive efforts of the Dak Lak Provincial People's Committee in land clearance and material preparation. Completing the component projects of the North-South Expressway is a crucial task of special significance to the nation. The local authorities, Project Management Board 85, and contractors need to continue reviewing and utilizing local material resources, and coordinate closely to ensure construction progress and project completion on schedule.

The Department of Agriculture and Environment is focusing on urging Thanh An Construction Co., Ltd. to increase its mining capacity, and Project Management Board 85 is coordinating with Phu Yen Road Management and Repair Joint Stock Company to agree on a roadmap for completing mining procedures for the expanded quarry in Tuy An Nam to ensure sufficient material supply for the project; contributing to the project's completion on schedule.
