At the working session, representatives of project owners and contractors reported that the demand for construction stone to serve key transportation projects in Dong Nai—such as the Long Thanh International Airport, the Bien Hoa-Vung Tau Expressway, and Ring Road No. 3 – Ho Chi Minh City—will amount to approximately 15 million cubic meters in 2025.
To ensure project progress, project owners requested that Dong Nai province and relevant agencies expedite the procedures for extending and increasing the capacity of stone quarries in the province during February, so that construction stone can be supplied for these projects starting in early March.
Chairman Vo Tan Duc of the Provincial People's Committee stated that, following the directives of the Government and the Prime Minister, Dong Nai province has coordinated with the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to adjust investment certificates for stone mining projects based on the registered volumes of project owners. These adjustments are to be completed by February 18. Dong Nai will continue working with the delegation from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to resolve any remaining difficulties within February, enabling the exploitation of stone quarries under special mechanisms to supply the projects starting in March 2025.
