  • First Version of the 'State of the Baltic Seaʼ Report
    FIRST VERSION OF THE ‘sTATE OF THE BALTIC SEA’ REPORT – JUNE 2017 TO BE UPDATED IN 2018 HELCOM – BALTIC MARINE ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION COMMISSION The production of this report has been carried out through the HELCOM Project for the development of the second holistic assessment of the Baltic Sea (HOLAS II). The work has been financially supported through HELCOM, the EU co-financing of HELCOM coordinated projects BalticBOOST, TAPAS and SPICE as well as special contributions by Sweden, Finland, Germany (Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety) and Denmark. The basis for the assessment of status of the Baltic Sea are the HELCOM core indicators and associated threshold values. In this context the following has been agreed: Regarding threshold values “At this point in time, HOLAS II indicators and threshold values should not automatically be considered by the Contracting Parties that are EU Member States, as equivalent to criteria threshold values in the sense of Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848 laying down criteria and methodological standards on good environmental status, but can be used for the purposes of their Marine Strategy Framework Directive obligations by those Contracting Parties being EU Member States that wish to do so”. Regarding testing of indicators Note that some indicators and/or their associated threshold value are still being tested in some countries and may be further developed in HELCOM as a result of the outcome of the testing. In some cases the results may show that the indicator is not suitable for use in a specific sub-basin. These indicators are marked in the assessment report and the results should be considered as intermediate.

  • 2018 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Northwest Territories, Chef De Mission - Doug Rentmeister
    P a g e | 1 CHEF DE MISSION FINAL REPORT 2018 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES Team Northwest Territories, Chef de Mission - Doug Rentmeister Section I Evaluation of Performance of the Host Society Registration and Accreditation • We feel a few more mandatory fields need to be put in place for a complete registration to be accepted. A lot of information we spent time trying to collect after the fact, could have been collected by GEMs (Health card #, PO Box, additional personal information, picture). If all these fields are made mandatory by GEMs, it would be a big-time saver for us. • Continued leniency needs to be afforded for our community kids that do not have ready access to computers, internet etc. or someone to assist them with their applications. i.e. supplying photos continues to be difficult from the community kids. • This is specific to Team NT but being able to access the registration system prior to our selection process i.e. October being initiated at that time and preventing us from having to register the same participant 2-3 times proved beneficial. Unfortunately, this also bit us in the butt as there were several Hodgson Trophy voting eligible candidates left on our gems pro registration list that did not vote because they were no longer on the team which then were subtracted from our final count. • Strongly feel that all and any Chef & Assistant Chefs to meet with the person in charge (in person, prior to the games) of this area to go through and update their team list and accreditation needs…it would save contingents a HUGE headache and allowed them to deal with those participants that did not register on time or had missing information effectively and quickly.

  • 2018 Arctic Winter Games
    2020 ARCTIC WINTER GAMES MISSION STAFF APPLICATION PACKAGE The Arctic Winter Games (AWG) are an international multi-sport and cultural event that will bring together 1,500 athletes from the Northwest Territories (NWT), Yukon, Nunavut, Alaska, Greenland, Russia, Nunavik, Northern Alberta and the Indigenous people of Norway and Finland (Sápmi). The concept of the AWG was developed as a direct result of the experiences of Northern athletes at the 1967 Canada Winter Games. Representatives of the Yukon and NWT realized that their teams were at a disadvantage due to relatively small athletic pools, lack of facilities and infrequent training opportunities. Therefore, the concept of an event specifically designed for Northern athletes was born. The first Games were staged in 1970 in Yellowknife, NWT, and have taken place every two years since, alternating between participating jurisdictions. The 2020 are the 50th anniversary of the Games and are going to be held back in Whitehorse Yukon from March 15-21, 2020. Team Yukon is seeking enthusiastic, dedicated and experienced sport volunteers. Mission Staff play a key role in the success of a well-managed team. Team Yukon is preparing to have a group of representatives who will operate under the direction of the Chef de Mission, and will be assigned to work with, and disseminate information to a designated sport(s) before and during the Games. Mission Staff must possess strong communication and administration skills and be able to work within a fast-paced environment. Mission Staff must possess a balance of the technical understanding and competency in a particular sport with the ability to communicate and engage youth.
