The Panama Canal workers suffered from deadly endemic diseases. These were known as yellow fever and malaria. These diseases practically disabled many and killed at least 20k workers in the 1880's.
The cost for a ship to use the Panama Canal depends on several factors, but the biggest calculation is the percentage of space on the vessel used for revenue. Thusly, a cruise ship will pay significantly more than a tanker.
It is estimated that at least 50 million cubic meters of earth and rock were moved in the construction of the Panama Canal. It took over ten years, but it was successful.
The Panama Canal and the surrounding areas around it is as clean as it can be. They enforce littering laws strongly, if a Police personnel or a park enforcement officer see you trowing a piece of paper or food or even a cigarette butt on the ground, you will get at least a $50.00 fine payable immediately by debit or credit card, if you cant pay they take you to one of the police precinct to record you until you pay the fine. Yes it is strongly enforced. The Panama canal is one of the cleanest places on earth, so is the Capital of Panama.
