VietNamNet Bridge – Cam Ranh Sugar Refinery in the southern province of Khanh Hoa was found to have exceeded its pollution limits, according to the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment.



Pollution levels were 8.5 times higher than permitted. The violation has been reported to the province's People's Committee on Tuesday after three environmental inspections of the factory.


Local households have also filed compensation claims after large amounts of fish in Cam Ranh Bay were poisoned by factory's waste emissions.
