On February 27, Mr. Duong Mah Tiep - Vice Chairman of Gia Lai Provincial People's Committee - signed an official dispatch to the districts and towns in the area requesting the review and updating of mineral mine areas.
In fact, in the past, many mineral mines in Gia Lai province had their licenses expired and had to close their mines. This significantly increases the cost of purchasing minerals (land, stone, sand, etc.) to serve the construction of infrastructure, key works and projects.
Transporting sand and stone long distances from other localities to the construction site has pushed up material prices. Some investors and businesses have to bear the costs, if they calculate unreasonable construction plans, they will face the risk of losses.
Faced with the above situation, the People's Committee of Gia Lai province requested districts and towns to review and update mineral mine areas in the 2025 land use plan and adjust the district-level land use plan to 2030.
When updated, reviewed, and supplemented, the State management agency will issue a mineral exploitation license. The mine points will be displayed on the mineral map of the province, distributed in districts, to have enough materials for construction.
From 2025, Gia Lai will start construction, accelerating key projects, especially preparing minerals to serve the construction of the Quy Nhon - Pleiku expressway project.
The expressway project aims to help improve the capacity of freight transportation and trade between Gia Lai and the South Central Coast provinces.
Vice Chairman of Duong Mah Tiep Provincial People's Committee requested districts to work with mine owners who have closed mines or reached the depth of the end of exploitation to discuss the dumping location.
The Quy Nhon - Pleiku expressway project is expected to dump a large amount ofster and stone, and unused surplus materials. Having a dumping site both serves the project and facilitates the plan to renovate and restore the mining environment.
