(Baonghean.vn) - At this time, the water level in Hua Na hydroelectric reservoir in Thong Thu commune, Que Phong district (Nghe An) is at a record low level, making it difficult to travel by small boat and raise fish in cages.
Representative of the Joint Stock CompanyHua Na Hydropower Plantsaid: The reason for the shallow water level in the reservoir is that last year there was no heavy rain in this basin, much less rainfall than in previous years. Currently, the water level is less than 50% of the design level, due to the lack of rain, the hydroelectric reservoir continues to dry up.
