This commitment is reflected in thespecial attention paid to the design of the works which will punctuate the Canal, locks, bridges, water reservoirs, etc. The technical criteria of the Société du Canal Seine-Nord Europe (SCSNE) meet and exceed the regulations applicable to this type of structure. The project also benefits from the expertise of specialists brought together within the Scientific and Technical Committee. The Seine-Nord Europe Canal is designed to be able to cope with a decamillennial flood, that is to say that there is a risk of it occurring each year in 10.
Beyond the design, during operation, the SCSNE is also committed to the infrastructure reliability,ergonomics and ease of maintenance structures and the integration, in particular, of real-time monitoring.
