Cavico Completes Construction of the Dasiat Hydropower Plant
HANOI, Vietnam--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 8, 2009-- Cavico Corp. (OTCBB: CAVO), a leading infrastructure development company based in Vietnam, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Cavico Hydropower Construction JSC (“Cavico Hydropower”), has completed the construction of the Dasiat Hydropower Plant and has begun the process of transferring the project over to Southern Hydropower Joint Stock Company, the project’s owner.

Cavico Hydropower started this $4.6 million construction project in July 2006. Cavico Hydropower constructed and supplied equipment for waterways including surge tanks, intakes, the headrace tunnel, and other construction related work surrounding the valve house. Cavico Hydropower used the blasting method to construct a headrace tunnel which is 1.44 miles long and 91 inches in diameter. The tunnel is considered to be the narrowest tunnel ever constructed in Vietnam by Cavico.

The Dasiat Hydropower Plant is located on the main flow of the Dasiat River, which is downstream from Dong Nai 3 and Dong Nai 4 hydropower plants, in Lam Dong Province, approximately 99 miles from Da Lat City and 155 miles north of Ho Chi Minh City. The hydropower plant has been designed and engineered to have 13.5 megawatts capacity and is expected to supply 57.7 million kilowatt-hours of electricity per year to the region.

“We are very pleased to announce the completion of Dasiat Hydropower Plant as per schedule,” commented Mr. Hai Thanh Tran, vice president of Cavico Corp. “We will continue with the process of completely handing over the project to Southern Hydropower Joint Stock Company next month.”
