Nieuws - 09 november 2018 - Webmaster Hydraulic Engineering

On the first of November, the ninth edition of the delta congress took place in Zwolle. At the congress it was busier than ever.

On the 3rd of September it was ten years ago that the Second Delta Committee, led by Cees Veerman, gave advice to the Cabinet. The Cabinet adopted the advice and that led to the introduction of the 'Deltawet', 'Deltaprogramma', 'Deltafonds' en 'deltacommissaris'. In Zwolle the Veerman Commission was almost completely present to celebrate the anniversary.
