Additionally, efforts will be intensified to promote public awareness, helping residents understand the project's significance. This aims to foster community consensus and active support for land clearance and resettlement activities.

The 500kV transmission line project from Lao Cai to Vinh Yen has been approved for investment policy and investor selection by the Prime Minister. As a key national project, it aims to optimize the capacity of hydroelectric plants in the Northwest region, ensure the safe and stable operation of the national power grid, and meet the growing electricity demands for socioeconomic development. Spanning a total length of 230 kilometers, the project traverses Lao Cai, Yen Bai, Phu Tho, and Vinh Phuc provinces, with an estimated investment of 7 trillion VND.

The segment passing through Yen Bai Province measures over 90 kilometers, of which nearly 51 kilometers run through Yen Binh District, involving 91 tower foundation positions and permanently utilizing over 17 hectares of land. The transmission line crosses 13 communes and towns, including Xuan Long, Ngoc Chan, Cam Nhan, My Gia, Xuan Lai, Yen Thanh, Phuc An, Vu Linh, Bach Ha, Vinh Kien, Han Da, Dai Minh, and Thac Ba Town.
