(HBO) - Criteria No. 17 related to the environment was identified by Lac Son district as important content, especially for communes striving to meet new rural standards. To achieve the target, it is necessary to mobilise the participation of the whole political system, agencies, business community and the people.


 The Women's Union of Van Son commune (Lac Son District) calls on its members of Loi Muong hamlet to collect and treat domestic waste at the right place.

This year, the district will continue to promote dissemination to enhance awareness of the people, authorities and mass organisations.

People are encouraged to take measures to clean the environment in their residential areas, along with the mobilization of the private sector in environmental protection and investing in the construction of a centralised waste treatment area among communes. The "All people unite to build a cultural life" movement is carried out along with the realisation of village conventions on rural environmental protection. People are encouraged to lead a civilised life and cultural family as well as develop production and animal husbandry in association with environmental protection.

Bui Thanh Tung, Vice Chairman of the district People's Committee, said the district focuses on disseminating legal documents to fulfil criteria No 17 and new rural buildings in the management of environmental protection. Businesses, production and business establishments in the area are facilitated in the observation of environmental protection regulations.

Up to now, the rate of households using hygienic and clean water has reached 98 percent. The percentage of businesses, aquatic farms and craft villages that meet regulations on environmental protection is 65 percent. Solid waste and wastewater in residential areas, production and business establishments have been collected and treated in line with regulations.

Implementing environmental criteria No. 17, the district has 75 percent of households with hygienic toilets. Seven out of 24 communes are assessed to satisfy the criteria for waste treatment. Seven communes have fulfilled the criteria set for new-style rural areas. The district is striving to have two more communes meeting the criteria by the end of this year, namely Tan Lap and Yen Phu.
