The campaign will last until September 17.
Each day, there will be from 35 to 50 vehicles, about 150 - 200 officers, employees, and soldiers from the Ha Long Bay Management Board, the Quang Ninh Provincial Military Command, the Provincial Border Guard Command, the Quang Ninh Park & Green Tree JSC, and businesses operating tourism services on the bay mobilised to participate in collecting and transporting garbage.
Due to the impact of Typhoon Yagi, the amount of garbage in Ha Long Bay is relatively large and complicated, including broken pieces of aquaculture rafts, branches, leaves, foam beads from broken plastic oyster buoys (HDPE), household waste, and sunken ships.
The collection and salvage of garbage will take a lot of time.
In the immediate future, the units will collect garbage in the core area of the Ha Long Bay Heritage, focusing on tourist itineraries, overnight stays, etc. then all garbage on the sea surface, around the islands and on sandy beaches in the bay.
After this campaign, the collection and treatment of garbage in Ha Long Bay will be carried out continuously and regularly.
