Tijdens het overleg van de klankbordgroep Grensmaas op 7 september en het dorpsraadoverleg van 14 september is door Rijkswaterstaat een aantal varianten/ alternatieven gepresenteerd voor de rivierverruiming van de Itterense weerd. Aan de dorpsraad van Itteren is verzocht om de varianten te bestuderen en deze eventueel van commentaar te voorzien. Na bestudering van de varianten heeft de dorpsraad besloten om een alternatief voorstel uit te werken dat gebaseerd is op dezelfde uitgangspunten en randvoorwaar- den zoals deze ook door Rijkswaterstaat gehanteerd zijn. In afwijking van hetgeen door Rijkswaterstaat voorgesteld heeft de dorpsraad een model uitge- werkt dat een meer natuurlijk en optimaal bruikbare invulling zou moeten geven aan de Itterense weerd De doelstelling Doelstelling is om een realistisch en haalbaar alternatief

  • Jeder Treu Auf Seinem Posten: German Catholics
    JEDER TREU AUF SEINEM POSTEN: GERMAN CATHOLICS AND KULTURKAMPF PROTESTS by Jennifer Marie Wunn (Under the Direction of Laura Mason) ABSTRACT The Kulturkampf which erupted in the wake of Germany’s unification touched Catholics’ lives in multiple ways. Far more than just a power struggle between the Catholic Church and the new German state, the conflict became a true “struggle for culture” that reached into remote villages, affecting Catholic men, women, and children, regardless of their age, gender, or social standing, as the state arrested clerics and liberal, Protestant polemicists castigated Catholics as ignorant, anti-modern, effeminate minions of the clerical hierarchy. In response to this assault on their faith, most Catholics defended their Church and clerics; however, Catholic reactions to anti- clerical legislation were neither uniform nor clerically-controlled. Instead, Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism took many different forms, highlighting both individual Catholics’ personal agency in deciding if, when, and how to take part in the struggle as well as the diverse factors that motivated, shaped, and constrained their activism. Catholics resisted anti-clerical legislation in ways that reflected their personal lived experience; attending to the distinctions between men’s and women’s activism or those between older and younger Catholics’ participation highlights individuals’ different social and communal roles and the diverse ways in which they experienced and negotiated the dramatic transformations the new nation underwent in its first decade of existence. Investigating the patterns and distinctions in Catholics’ Kulturkampf activism illustrates how Catholics understood the Church-State conflict, making clear what various groups within the Catholic community felt was at stake in the struggle, as well as how external factors such as the hegemonic contemporary discourses surrounding gender roles, class status, age and social roles, the division of public and private, and the feminization of religion influenced their activism.

  • WPD Mangsliberget Wind Turbine Industrial Project - Consultation
    WPD Mangsliberget Wind Turbine Industrial Project - Consultation WPD is exploring the possibility of constructing a large wind turbine industrial power project with a maximum of 34 wind turbines of 3 to 5 MW with a total height of 250m in the area around Mangslidberget in Torsby municipality, Värmland Province. The project area is located about 20 km west of Ambjörby and Likenäs and about 40 km north of Torsby. The land is mainly owned by Bergvik forest and by some private landowners, and the area is partly characterized by modern forestry. Image of a footprint for a single turbine comparable to what is planned for Mangsliberget. The project is run by a project company that is part of the wpd group and is owned by wpd europe GmbH. The development work is conducted through wpd Scandinavia AB, also a subsidiary of wpd europe GmbH. Wpd in Sweden is currently working on the design and development of a number of wind power projects, including the land-based projects Aldermyrberget, Broboberget, Lannaberget, Stöllsäterberget, Råliden and Tomasliden, as well as the offshore project Storgrundet. Expected example of typical visibility of a turbine at Mangsliberget. WPD intends to apply for permit under the Environmental Code for the wind farm with associated roads and electrical equipment at the Environmental Testing Delegation (MPD) in Örebro County, which handles permit issues located in Värmland County. WPD refers to seeking permission to establish the wind farm within a specified project area but without fixed coordinates for the wind power plants. The document Vindkraftspark Mangslid - Samrådshandling (Wind farm Mangslid - consultation document) forms a basis for consultation and describes the project at an early stage.

  • Transport Accessibility and Mobility: a Forecast of Changes in the Face of Planned Development of the Network of Expressways and Motorways in Poland
    EUROPEAN SPATIAL RESEARCH AND POLICY Volume 26 2019 Number 2 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1231-1952.26.2.08 Michał KOWALSKI*, Szymon WIŚNIEWSKI* TRANSPORT ACCESSIBILITY AND MOBILITY: A FORECAST OF CHANGES IN THE FACE OF PLANNED DEVELOPMENT OF THE NETWORK OF EXPRESSWAYS AND MOTORWAYS IN POLAND Abstract. The article presents a forecast of changes in the level of transport accessibility and mobility in Poland as a result of the anticipated development of the network of expressways and motorways. The progress which has been made in this respect in the last few years in Poland is unquestionable and unrepeatable by any other European country. Will the subsequent invest- ment plans concerning the road network of the highest parameters offer equally impressive results as far as the increase in Poland’s territorial cohesion is concerned? The aim of this article is to establish in what way the planned infrastructure investments will affect the changes in transport accessibility and mobility as well as whether they will result in the changes in traffic flows- di rected to Warsaw and other regional centres. To achieve this, an analysis of the present and target states of the road network in Poland was conducted from the perspective of the changes in ac- cessibility, anticipated traffic flows, and mobility. For this purpose, the authors used the analyses of isochrone and accumulative accessibility in ArcMap environment and the research into traffic flows and their changes in the Visum software. The conducted research showed that the planned transport network might result in induced traffic through an increase in accessibility (the central variant) with the assumption that an increase in mobility would be vented in the real face of the phenomenon of motility.
