Management history

There is little information available about this site, which is situated in Minh Hoa district, Quang Binh province. The establishment of a 10,000 ha nature reserve at the site was proposed by Quang Binh Provincial People's Committee in 1995 (MARD 1997). To date, however, it appears that the establishment of a nature reserve at Khe Ve-Minh Hoa has not been approved by MARD. Furthermore, the site is not included on any government decree or official proposal at the central level (MARD 1997, FPD 2003).
