N2 Canal is part of the project to restore and upgrade the Northern Nghe An irrigation system, running through Yen Thanh and Dien Chau districts. This water source serves to irrigate thousands of hectares of agricultural land and provides industrial and domestic water for thousands of people in Yen Thanh and Dien Chau.

However, immediately after the N2 canal was put into operation, dozens of households in Cao Son hamlet, Vinh Thanh commune arbitrarily installed drainage pipes from their houses to the canal. Every day, all domestic water and water from the residential area's sanitary works are discharged directly into the canal.

Faced with this situation, recently, comrade Dinh Viet Hong - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee directly directed Yen Thanh district to urgently take measures to enforce the removal of the domestic wastewater discharge pipe into the canal. At the same time, he requested localities to take measures to protect the water source of the N2 canal.
