Lao Dong Newspaper received information from the people of Soc Dang Commune, Doan Hung District about the recent appearance of large trucks transporting soil from Soc Dang Industrial Park to a port along the Lo River, causing dust on the road and posing a potential risk of traffic accidents. The excavation and transportation of soil not only has not been licensed by the competent authority, but also ignores the request of the local government to stop the operation.

In mid-November, when visiting the Soc Dang industrial park to investigate, a reporter from Lao Dong Newspaper recorded that in the southeast area of this industrial park, there were up to 4 excavators and many large trucks of various types mobilized to dig and transport soil.

Following the direction of the trucks carrying soil, the reporter recorded the convoy running in the direction of Soc Dang industrial cluster to the Lo river dike, passing in front of the Soc Dang commune People's Committee gate before stopping at a riverside port.

According to local people, the port where the trucks carrying soil arrived belongs to Thai Binh Company Limited (abbreviated as Thai Binh port) located in zone 9, Soc Dang commune.

The reporter contacted a man named Hoa, who is said to be the manager at Thai Binh port. Mr. Hoa said: "At the port, I manage the output and input, loading and unloading, transportation, and as for the price, the buyer and seller work together, I don't know, I don't know where the ship is going."

Speaking to Lao Dong Newspaper reporter, Mr. Nguyen Viet Hung - Chairman of Soc Dang Commune People's Committee - confirmed that the reflection on the above situation is correct. Since November 8, the Commune People's Committee has sent report No. 71/BC-UBND to Doan Hung District People's Committee, Department of Natural Resources and Environment and Public Works Project Management Board to ask for guidance.

According to the report, after the actual inspection, the People's Committee of the commune reminded and requested Thai Binh wharf to immediately stop gathering and loading goods onto ships, and at the same time requested Vertexco Company (Vertexco Soc Dang Joint Stock Company - the unit investing in construction and trading part of the technical infrastructure and services of Soc Dang industrial cluster) to stop exploiting and transporting soil to the wharf without permission from the competent authority.

The violation has been clearly identified, however, as of November 15, the illegal exploitation and transportation of soil at Soc Dang industrial park is still continuing, despite the local government's written request to stop.
