    Arkitektur- og designhøgskolen i Oslo The Oslo School of Architecture and Design DIPLOMA ROGRAM FALL 2017 Diploma candidate: Robert Sømod Institute: FTH Main supervisor: Beate Hølmebakk Second supervisor: Lars Danielsen Holen External supervisor: Company cooperation: Ti tie of project: Lysebotn 1 Pre-diploma rapport ”Lysebotn 1” Robert Sømod AHO, Fall 2017 Supervisor: Beate Hølmebakk Introduction Lysebotn1 water power facility began construction in 1947, with an aim to sup- ply the county of Rogaland in the south-west Norway with power in a time when society had an ever-increasing consumption of electricity. Due to post-war politics and restrains, the facility was constructed 50 meters inside a mountain. Both to secure this important facility from bomb-raids and to save cost in materials. It was constructed next to a natural mountain shelf in the beautiful Lysefjorden. Historically, because of intervention in nature, waterpower-facilities have been controversial, but in the same time it has brought work and pride to locals. Today, some look at these spaces as something sacred. The owners of Lysebotn1 is constructing a new facility, Lysebotn2, which will take over and increase the production. Lysebotn 1 and its halls carved out of mountain will then close down. I consider these halls to be highly interesting, and want to open them for public. My fascination is that the aim of the infrastructural program has do with the most essential needs of structure. In the fact that these industrial facilities require spe- cific logic systems, and programs that deal with infrastructure demands a specific architecture in means that only the most necessary will be done.

  • Helpful Information for Your Kjerag Trip 2016
    Helpful Information For Your Kjerag Trip 2016 Check out the Ferry Boat times to co-ordinate them with your flight times. In general arriving at the Stavanger Sola Airport (SVG) in the morning hours on a Monday, Wednesday, or Friday work best for scheduling so that you can leave the airport quickly and catch the *12:30 Fast Ferry ( *new summer time schedule from dates in June sometime ). If your coming for the Heliboogie Monday June 20th would be your best choice for early morning arrival into Stavanger. Do not purchase expensive airline tickets that get you into Stavanger later and then missing the ferry boats into the fjord and having to stay overnight in a hotel just to catch the Lauvvik slow ferry or Lysefjord Tourist Bus in the next day. There is a city map of Stavanger web link as well as other helpful links below. When you get to the Sola Airport catch the blue and white airport Flybussen bus (or taxi) to the "Fiskepiren" destination, Fiskepirterminalen building in Stavanger. Dock Route # 13 located next to Fiskepirterminalen Building, where the Fast Ferry leave from in Stavanger, the street address there is 14 Verksgata street. Verify with ferry web links below as 2016 does have some slow ferry departures leaving from Lauvik and a bus is needed to get from Stavanger to Lauvvik. These Ferry final destination is at Lysebotn where the Base Klubb and accommodations are located. City map of Stavanger web link is http://www.stavanger- guide.no/regionstavanger/stavanger/map_english.pdf Ground Transportation -Airport Bus Transportation from the Sola Airport to Stavanger are the blue and white Flybussen, which drops you of at the Fiskepiren Ferry Docks.

  • Forslag Til Forvaltningsplan for Verneområda I Setesdal Vesthei, Ryfylkeheiane Og Frafjordheiane Høringsutkast
    Forslag til Forvaltningsplan for verneområda i Setesdal Vesthei, Ryfylkeheiane og Frafjordheiane Høringsutkast Frå Prostøl i Dyraheio Frå Øvre Espedalsstøl i Frafjordheiane 1 Forord Denne forvaltningsplanen er utarbeidd av Verneområdestyret for Setesdal Vesthei, Ryfylkeheiane og Frafjordheiane, og omfattar Kvanndalen, Dyraheio, Lusaheia, Vormedalsheia, Frafjordheiane og Setesdal Vesthei-Ryfylkeheiane landskapsvernområde, samt Holmavassåno og Steinbuskardet-Hisdal biotopvernområde. Forvaltningsplanen avløyser fem tidlegare forvaltningsplanar; Kvanndalen, Dyraheio og Holmavassåno frå 1993, Lusaheia frå 1993, Vormedalsheia frå 1993, Frafjordheiane 2007, Setesdal Vesthei-Ryfylkeheiane og Steinbuskaret-Hisdal frå 2000. Bakgrunnen for planarbeidet var behovet for ein felles samordna forvaltningsplan for alle verneområda verneområdestyret hadde forvaltningsmynde for. Planen tek i hovudsak utgangspunkt i verneføreskrifter og eksisterande forvaltningsplanar for dei ulike verneområda, samt forvaltningspraksisen verneområdestyret har etablert sidan det vart konstituert 15 mars 2011. Mykje av det daglege arbeidet med forvaltningsplanen blir lagt til ei prosjektgruppe som har bestått av medlemmane i arbeidsutvalet og forvaltningssekretariatet. Oppstartsmelding for planarbeidet vart sendt 1 februar 2013 og verneområdestyret godkjente utkastet til forvaltningsplan 7 mai 2014. Etter ein fagleg gjennomgang i Miljødirktoratet gav dei klarsignal til at planutkasten kunne sendast ut på høring 12 juni 2014. Litt om høringsprosess og godkjenning – skrivast

  • Disease of Aquatic Organisms 120:109
    Vol. 120: 109–113, 2016 DISEASES OF AQUATIC ORGANISMS Published July 7 doi: 10.3354/dao03009 Dis Aquat Org OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS Occurrence of salmonid alphavirus (SAV) and piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) infections in wild sea trout Salmo trutta in Norway Abdullah Sami Madhun*, Cecilie Helen Isachsen, Linn Maren Omdal, Ann Cathrine Bårdsgjære Einen, Pål Arne Bjørn, Rune Nilsen, Egil Karlsbakk Institute of Marine Research, Nordnesgaten 50, 5005 Bergen, Norway ABSTRACT: Viral diseases represent a serious problem in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) farm- ing in Norway. Pancreas disease (PD) caused by salmonid alphavirus (SAV) and heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) caused by piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) are among the most fre- quently diagnosed viral diseases in recent years. The possible spread of viruses from salmon farms to wild fish is a major public concern. Sea trout S. trutta collected from the major farming areas along the Norwegian coast are likely to have been exposed to SAV and PRV from farms with dis- ease outbreaks. We examined 843 sea trout from 4 counties in Norway for SAV and PRV infec- tions. We did not detect SAV in any of the tested fish, although significant numbers of the trout were caught in areas with frequent PD outbreaks. Low levels of PRV were detected in 1.3% of the sea trout. PRV-infected sea trout were caught in both salmon farming and non-farming areas, so the occurrence of infections was not associated with farming intensity or HSMI cases. Our results suggest that SAV and PRV infections are uncommon in wild sea trout. Hence, we found no evi- dence that sea trout are at risk from SAV or PRV released from salmon farms.
