2008-07-17 08:50:00

HANOI, Vietnam–(EMWNews)–Cavico Corporation (OTC BB: CVIC) (Cavico

or the Company), a

leading infrastructure development company in Vietnam, today announced

that the Company has entered into an agreement to construct dams on the

Huong (Perfume) River and create Ta Trach water reservoir for $3.4

million. The reservoir will be located in Duong Hoa village, Huong Thuy

district, Thua Thien Hue province.

Cavico will begin construction of the 717-square kilometer reservoir in

August 2008 and it is expected to be completed by December 2011. The

Company will construct the main dam which will be 1,112 meters in

length, 56 meters high and 8 meters wide. In addition to the main dam,

four sub dams of total 660 meters in length and an overflow dam with six

releasing gates will also be constructed.

This is a part of Package #20 of Ta Trach reservoir which is the second

largest project in the central region of Vietnam. The project belongs to

Hydropower Management No. 5, a part of Ministry of Agriculture and

Farming.

The dam will limit damages caused by floods in the Hue city, a site of

previously devastating floods. In addition, Ta Trach reservoir will also

supply water to 35 hectares of farming land in the Huong (Perfume) river

region, help control the water flow, and limit the salt level in the

river. The reservoir may become a hydropower plant with a capacity of

18,000 KW that would generate an average of 60 million kwh per year.

The Vietnamese government continues to invest

into important flood control and hydropower dam projects throughout the

country, demonstrating a commitment to infrastructure development,

commented Mr. Hieu Van Phan, Vice President of Cavico Corp.
