However, each year we tend to lose as many members as we gain. We have published the third edition of Other Meetings and Tours American Seacoast Defenses, our reference book on the subject. It is available both electronically and on paper, and we are printing June 13, 2015 on demand, so that we do not hold an inventory. Association Saint-Maurice d'Etudes Militaries Tour We need members to write articles for the Journal and Newslet- Gondo/Route Napoleon Tour ter. Even a short report about a visit to a fort is useful. Articles that Col. Pascal Bruchez, [email protected] narrate the history of a fort or the experiences of a coast artillery veteran can be published in the Journal. More complex are articles September 5-12, 2015 that examine why and how the forts were built and operated, or ECCOFORT Reg.

If Verona, Italy you have an idea for an article, contact our Journal editor, Bolling Hans-Rudolf Neuman, [email protected] Smith, and discuss what might be needed to write it. Please consider being a site representative, a member who stays September 9-13, 2015 in contact with the owner or manager of a coast defense site, and Association Vauban Study Tour acts as a conduit for information both ways. What is going on at the Stockholm, Sweden site? What questions does the site manager have? You don’t need to Mary Pierdait Fillie, [email protected] be an expert on coast defense; you just need to be willing to make contact with the site owner or manager periodically and show that September 16-21, 2015 CDSG will support the preservation and interpretation of the site.

The question is whether this change in strategy increases the protection or the risk of losing the undocumented heritage it was meant to protect? The strategy puts a large responsibility on present and future generations, as the concept of in situ preservation implies that the heritage sites remain unchanged ‘forever’.

  • INNSPILL TIL REVIDERING AV KYSTSONEPLANEN for SØR-TROMS. Dyrøy Villfisk Sin Prinsipielle Holdning Er at Det I Dag Ikke Er Tatt
    INNSPILL TIL REVIDERING AV KYSTSONEPLANEN FOR SØR-TROMS. Dyrøy Villfisk sin prinsipielle holdning er at det i dag ikke er tatt tilstrekkelig hensyn til de ulike aktørers behov og ønsker for bruk av kysten vår . Oppdrettsindustrien har fått forkjørsrett i alt for stor grad, slik at det går utover både miljø og andre brukere. De senere år har vi registrert følgende: sjøørreten er forsvunnet, røya, auar og reker er sterkt redusert. Det samme med mariflua. Kysttorsken har vært mer variabel (kanskje det har sammenheng med hvor mye laks det er i mærdene til enhver tid?) Den som har overlevd best er seien, men den ligger til gjengjeld så nær mærdene og eter seg så feit at den bortimot ikke er spiselig for folk. Når vi så i tillegg vet at villaksen er kritisk truet pga lus- og rømmingsproblematikken, mener vi at det er alt for mye oppdrettsanlegg i regionen. Utviklinga burde vært reversert. Iallfall bør det ikke under noen omstendigheter gis mer areal eller åpnes for mer biomasse verken i Dyrøy eller tilstøtende kommuner. Når det gjelder bevaring av fiskegrunner i Dyrøy, vises til avmerking på kart som ble gjort når kystsoneplanen ble vedtatt. Berit Nikolaisen Sekr.

  • Kulturminner Og Kulturmiljøer I Harstad Og Bjarkøy
    NIKU Oppdragsrapport 11/2009 Kulturminner og kulturmiljøer i Harstad og Bjarkøy Kulturmiljøvurdering som innspill til kommuneplan Sveinung Krokann Berg Kari Larsen NIKU Oppdragsrapport 11/2009 Forord Denne rapporten er skrevet på oppdrag for kommunene Harstad og Bjarkøy. I rapporten gis en oversikt over kulturminner og kulturmiljøverdier som et grunnlag for arbeidet med ny kommuneplan. Kulturminnevurderingen er ment å være et utgangspunkt for kommuneplanlegging og et utgangspunkt for videre refleksjon om mulig og ønsket utvikling i kommunene. Valg av anlysenivå og detaljeringsgrad er derfor tilpasset dette utgangspunktet. NIKU vil understreke at kulturminnegrunnlaget ikke må oppfattes som en total oversikt hvor alle sider ved områdets kulturhistorie og kulturminner er beskrevet og vurdert. I arbeidet med kulturminnegrunnlaget er Harstad og Bjarkøys mangesidige historiske landskap forsøkt tydeliggjort. Flere av kulturminnene og kulturmiljøene i begge kommunene er særpreget og med høy kulturminneverdi. Kulturhistorien og kulturminnene i de to kommunene har mange fellestrekk blant annet når det gjelder type, form og utbredelse. Kulturmiljøvurderingene er utført av Sveinung Krokann Berg og Kari Larsen. Kartarbeid er utført av Sveinung Krokann Berg. I tillegg har Anneli Nesbakken og Marit Myrvoll bidratt med innspill, sistnevnte særlig når det gjelder samiske kulturminner og kulturmiljøer. Kontaktpersoner har vært Therese Frivåg Lund i Harstad kommune og Helge Albrigtsen i Bjarkøy kommune. Oslo, februar 2009 2 Kulturmiljøvurdering Harstad og
