The French organize the task by dividing it into three divisions. One is the Limon Bay together with the lower reaches of the Chagres. A second is the upper Chagres and the hills between Matachnn and Culebra. A third is from the Culebra to the Bay of Panama. A French engineer heads each division. Each involves multiple contractors drawn from numerous countries.
