On December 30, 2016, the Ministry of Construction issued Circular 30/2016/TT-BXD stipulating specific provisions on environmental management in the execution of EPC contracts.

Accordingly, the environmental management when executing the EPC contract is stipulated in Circular 30 as follows:

- The contractor must implement measures to ensure environmental safety for workers on site and protect the surrounding environment;- The parties are responsible for monitoring the implementation of environmental protection in construction, while also being subject to inspection and supervision by state environmental management agencies. In case the contractor does not comply with the regulations on environmental protection, the employer and the competent state authorities have the right to temporarily halt construction and require the contractor to implement proper environmental protection measures;- Individuals and organizations causing environmental damage during the construction process must bear legal responsibility and compensate for the damage they cause.

See details in Circular 30/2016/TT-BXD effective from February 20, 2017.
