Cause of odor in Saigon out next weekThe HCMC government plans to call a press conference next week to publicize the cause of odor which has recently plagued the southern districts of Binh Chanh, Nha Be and 7, according to the city’s Department of Natural Resources and the Environment. He said all information about the odor will be made clear early next week and added that less odor has been felt in the districts in recent times. According to the department, many people have bemoaned odor and noise pollution at waste transfer stations and landfills. He furthered waste treatment complexes should plant trees and investors need to weigh the waste collection time to limit odor from spreading. As many as 30 odor monitoring staff inspected all possible sources including rivers, canals, production facilities, waste transfer stations, wastewater treatment facilities, wastewater reservoirs and waste treatment complexes.
