On November 6, the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Irrigation Works Management and Exploitation Center (Department of Agriculture and Environment of Ho Chi Minh City) announced that the center has started releasing floodwaters at the Da Den reservoir. This discharge will be carried out continuously for 10 days, from November 6 to 16.

The flood discharge is likely to affect production households in the eastern area of ​​Ho Chi Minh City along both banks of the Dinh River from behind Da Den Lake to Ben Suc. Specifically, the affected localities include: Chau Pha Commune, Nghia Thanh Commune, Tan Thanh Ward, Long Huong Ward on the right bank of the Dinh River; Tam Long Ward, Ba Ria Ward on the left bank of the Dinh River.

According to the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Center for Management and Exploitation of Irrigation Works, incidents at irrigation reservoirs not only cause human and economic losses but also have a huge impact on the environment. Therefore, ensuring the safety of dams during the flood season is extremely urgent in localities.

People living and farming along both sides of the river should be informed about flood discharge, be proactive in production, and absolutely not catch fish, crabs, or snails in the downstream area of ​​the flood discharge project.
