Delta technology
Water, ground and sub-soil issues are not just about technology.
• Quite often, there are different policy agenda’s• A large number of parties are involved, each with different interests• And the environment plays an important role.
Therefore, development of the area must be approached from several angles.
Delta technology combines all these ‘hard’ and soft’ approaches in relationto the environment. This integrated approach results in a sustainable, socially acceptable development of our surroundings using advancedtechnological solutions.
Our goal is a safe environment in which it is pleasant to live.
