This Circular specifies the technical requirements for constructing embankments around residential areas in the program of building residential clusters and housing in provinces frequently flooded in the Mekong Delta, aiming to accelerate the implementation progress. This Circular takes effect 45 days from the date of signature.
Scope of application
Localities in the flood-prone areas of the Mekong Delta; state management agencies for construction and agriculture; investors of projects to build residential clusters and housing.
Key points
- For existing residential areas, the width of the embankment top should not exceed 2.5 meters.
- The height of the embankment is determined based on actual terrain but shall not exceed the distance from the bottom of the embankment to the highest flood level in 2000 plus 0.5 meters.
- The width of the embankment base is determined based on the slope coefficient of the embankment and actual geological conditions.
- The specifications for constructing the embankment must be approved in the design drawings.
- Localities may apply larger specifications if they can mobilize additional funding sources, but they must still comply with the Prime Minister's requirements.
🌐 Social impact of this document
- Positive impact: Helps accelerate the construction progress of residential clusters and housing in provinces frequently flooded.
- Negative impact: May impose financial pressure on localities if they need to mobilize additional funding sources to implement larger embankment specifications.

Pursuant to Decision No. 1151/QĐ-TTg dated August 26, 2008 of the Prime Minister approving the supplementation of investment projects (Phase 2) under the Program for Building Clusters and Residential Areas in Flood-Prone Areas in the Mekong Delta.
Pursuant to Notification No. 283/TB-VPCP dated October 1, 2008 of the Government Office.
The Ministry of Construction guides the amendment and supplementation of Point 2, Section II of Circular No. 04/2004/TT-BXD dated July 7, 2004 of the Ministry of Construction guiding the implementation of Decision No. 78/2004/QĐ-TTg dated May 7, 2004 of the Prime Minister on adjusting and supplementing certain mechanisms and policies to accelerate the progress of building clusters and residential areas in flood-prone provinces in the Mekong Delta. Guiding the implementation of Decision No. 78/2004/QĐ-TTg dated May 7, 2004 of the Prime Minister on adjusting and supplementing certain mechanisms and policies to accelerate the progress of building clusters and residential areas in flood-prone provinces in the Mekong Delta. as follows:
"2. The specifications for constructing embankments around existing residential areas shall be determined for the allocation of funds for investment projects (Phase 2) under the Program for Building Clusters and Residential Areas in Flood-Prone Areas in the Mekong Delta, as follows:"
- The width of the top of the embankment shall not exceed 2.5 meters;
- The height of the embankment shall be determined at each different location based on the actual terrain where the embankment is constructed but shall not exceed the distance from the bottom of the embankment at the specified location to the crest level of the flood in 2000 plus 0.5 meters;
- The width of the base of the embankment shall be specifically determined based on the calculation of the slope coefficient of the embankment ensuring suitability with the actual geological conditions at the location where the embankment is constructed (in accordance with the technical standards for constructing dikes prescribed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development).
The specifications for constructing the embankment shall be reflected in the design drawings approved by the competent authority in accordance with the regulations.
For localities that can mobilize other sources of funding, the embankment may be constructed with larger specifications but must ensure completion requirements as stipulated by the Prime Minister in Decision No. 1151/QĐ-TTg.
This Circular takes effect 45 days from the date of signature. During the implementation period, if there are any difficulties, localities are requested to report to the Ministry of Construction for guidance on implementation or for amendments and supplements./.
