VTV.vn - A conference assessing the current state of the marine environment in the waters of the provinces from Ha Tinh to Thua Thien-Hue following the disastrous Formosa Ha Tinh toxic leak was held at Quang Tri Province this morning.

The event concluded that the waters are now safe for fishing, tourism and seafood raising. The research was conducted by the Science Council and used evidence compiled by international and local scientists.

Regarding the quality of seafood, according to the Ministry of Health’s supervision, from 28th of April to 8th August, the results of seafood taken in waters from the four central provinces showed levels of contaminants in seafood have decreased over time.

In the coming time, the Ministry of Health will co-ordinate with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development to supervise seafood caught in the safe waters announced by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
