The Chairman requested that Party committees, local authorities, departments and sectors, the Provincial Project Management Board, and contractors act with determination and proactivity to ensure completion of project milestones in accordance with the Prime Minister’s directives. Underperforming contractors failing to meet schedule requirements will be handled resolutely. The Department of Agriculture and Environment is to coordinate with relevant units to review the province’s mining sites (sand and stone) and advise the Provincial People’s Committee on solutions to ensure material supply for on-schedule construction.

The project owner and construction units are to proactively implement construction plans, mobilize maximum machinery, equipment, and human resources, and organize multiple work fronts to overcome difficulties and accelerate construction, in the spirit of the Prime Minister’s instruction to “eat during brief breaks, sleep in haste” and “brave the sun, beat the rain,” ensuring the best possible progress and quality, striving to basically complete the project by December 19.
