DUMONT (1839-1849) considered the Sands of Grimmertingen as the base of his Ton­ grian stage (Grimmertingen is at present a hamlet in the municipality of Vliermaal in the Eastern part of Belgium). Samples have been taken from the outcrop of the type-locality and from a new boring reaching a depth of 12,5 m, towards the base of this member. Sorne of these sa.mples from both outcrop and boring yielded fairly rich assemblages of calcareous nannoplankton of which a list is given: the assemblages belong to the Ellipsolithus subdistichus zone, the zone which was also recognised in the sand extracted from the molluscs of the type-Latdorfian (Lower Oligocene). The recent sampling of the Grimmertingen-locality also permitted to find fairly rich associations of Hystrichospheres and of planktonic and benthonic Foraminifera, which are under current study. ZusAMMENFASSUNG. A. DUMONT (1839-1849) stellte die Sande von Grimmertingen an die Basis seines ,,Tongrien" (Grimmertingen befindet sich heute im Stadtbereich von Vliermaal im ostlichen Teil von Belgien).

  • Best Practices in Rural Development Flanders – Belgium
    Best practices in rural development Flanders – Belgium Nominated and winning projects Competition Prima Plattelandsproject 2010 Preface At the beginning of April 2010, the Prima Plattelandsproject competition was launched. In the frame of this competition the Flemish Rural Network went in search of the best rural projects and activities in Flanders, subsidized under the Rural Development Programme 2007-2013 (RDP II). No fewer than 35 farmers or organisations submitted their candidacy. A total of 32 candidates were finally retained by the Flemish Rural Network. These were distributed as follows in function of the competition themes: - added value through cooperation: 15 candidates; - smart use of energy in agriculture and rural areas: 0 candidates; - care for nature and biodiversity: 8 candidates; - communication and education as an instrument: 6 candidates; - smart marketing strategies: 3 candidates. The provincial juries decided which of the submitted files could continue to the next round (up to 3 projects per theme per province). Then an international jury selected the five best candidates for each theme for the whole of Flanders. After that, everyone had the opportunity to vote for their favourite(s)on the www.ruraalnetwerk.be website. No less than 7300 valid votes were registered! The four winning projects were honoured on 14 January 2011 during an event at the Agriflanders agricultural fair. Picture: The four winning projects. Since all 18 projects can be considered “best practices”, this brochure gives an overview of the winning and the nominated projects by theme. The texts and photographs were provided by the applicants, unless otherwise indicated. Enjoy your read! Flemish Rural Network Theme “Added value through cooperation” WINNING PROJECT: Library service bus Zwevegem Project description: The main facilities (including the municipal administrative centre and the library) are located outside of the city centre in the municipality of Zwevegem, in the extreme north of the town.

  • Memorandum Vlaamse En Federale
    MEMORANDUM VOOR VLAAMSE EN FEDERALE REGERING INLEIDING De burgemeesters van de 35 gemeenten van Halle-Vilvoorde hebben, samen met de gedeputeerden, op 25 februari 2015 het startschot gegeven aan het ‘Toekomstforum Halle-Vilvoorde’. Toekomstforum stelt zich tot doel om, zonder bevoegdheidsoverdracht, de kwaliteit van het leven voor de 620.000 inwoners van Halle-Vilvoorde te verhogen. Toekomstforum is een overleg- en coördinatieplatform voor de streek. We formuleren in dit memorandum een aantal urgente vragen voor de hogere overheden. We doen een oproep aan alle politieke partijen om de voorstellen op te nemen in hun programma met het oog op het Vlaamse en federale regeerprogramma in de volgende legislatuur. Het memorandum werd op 19 december 2018 voorgelegd aan de burgemeesters van de steden en gemeenten van Halle-Vilvoorde en door hen goedgekeurd. 1. HALLE-VILVOORDE IS EEN CENTRUMREGIO Begin 2018 hebben we het dossier ‘Centrumregio-erkenning voor Vlaamse Rand en Halle’ met geactualiseerde cijfers gepubliceerd (zie bijlage 1). De analyse van de cijfers toont zwart op wit aan dat Vilvoorde, Halle en de brede Vlaamse Rand geconfronteerd worden met (groot)stedelijke problematieken, vaak zelfs sterker dan in andere centrumsteden van Vlaanderen. Momenteel is er slechts een beperkte compensatie voor de steden Vilvoorde en Halle en voor de gemeente Dilbeek. Dat is positief, maar het is niet voldoende om de problematiek, met uitlopers over het hele grondgebied van het arrondissement, aan te pakken. Toekomstforum Halle-Vilvoorde vraagt een erkenning van Halle-Vilvoorde als centrumregio. Deze erkenning zien we als een belangrijk politiek signaal inzake de specifieke positie van Halle-Vilvoorde. De erkenning als centrumregio moet extra financiering aanreiken waarmee de lokale besturen van de brede Vlaamse rand projecten en acties kunnen opzetten die de (groot)stedelijke problematieken aanpakken.

  • Belgian Federalism After the Sixth State Reform by Jurgen Goossens and Pieter Cannoot
    ISSN: 2036-5438 Belgian Federalism after the Sixth State Reform by Jurgen Goossens and Pieter Cannoot Perspectives on Federalism, Vol. 7, issue 2, 2015 Except where otherwise noted content on this site is licensed under a Creative Commons 2.5 Italy License E - 29 Abstract This paper highlights the most important institutional evolutions of Belgian federalism stemming from the implementation of the sixth state reform (2012-2014). This reform inter alia included a transfer of powers worth 20 billion euros from the federal level to the level of the federated states, a profound reform of the Senate, and a substantial increase in fiscal autonomy for the regions. This contribution critically analyses the current state of Belgian federalism. Although the sixth state reform realized important and long-awaited changes, further evolutions are to be expected. Since the Belgian state model has reached its limits with regard to complexity and creativity, politicians and academics should begin to reflect on the seventh state reform with the aim of increasing the transparency of the current Belgian institutional labyrinth. Key-words Belgium, state reform, Senate, constitutional amendment procedure, fiscal autonomy, distribution of powers, Copernican revolution Except where otherwise noted content on this site is licensed under a Creative Commons 2.5 Italy License E - 30 1. Introduction After the federal elections of 2010, Belgian politicians negotiated for 541 days in order to form the government of Prime Minister Di Rupo, which took the oath on 6 December 2011. This resulted in the (unofficial) world record of longest government formation period. After the Flemish liberal party (Open VLD) elicited the end of the government of Prime Minister Leterme, Belgian citizens had to vote on 13 June 2010.

  • Sustainable Road Building with Low-Noise Crcp on Belgian Motorways
    SUSTAINABLE ROAD BUILDING WITH LOW-NOISE CRCP ON BELGIAN MOTORWAYS Luc Rens Federation of the Belgian Cement Industry, Brussels, Belgium Chris Caestecker The Ministry of the Flemish Community – Roads and Traffic Administration of Flemish Brabant, Vilvoorde, Belgium Hubert Decramer The Ministry of the Flemish Community – Roads and Traffic Administration of West Flanders, Brugge, Belgium SYNOPSIS For more than 30 years, a large proportion of the Belgian motorway network has been built using CRCP. As the motorway network in Belgium is now nearly complete, a large share of current road investment is allocated to the renovation of the oldest concrete pavement. Some asphalt roads are also being replaced with concrete, sometimes via the complete reconstruction of the road structure, sometimes by an inlay (of the slow lane). This paper describes some of the renovation carried out in Flanders (the north of Belgium) in 2001. Common to these works is the use of CRCP and exposed aggregate concrete as a surface finishing in order to provide a low- noise surface. In order to achieve this noise reduction, the maximum size of the exposed aggregate has for more than 10 years been limited to 20 mm and generally more than 20 % of these aggregates consist of the fraction 4/7. The first project involves an inlay of the right lane of a heavily trafficked main road (N31) where rutting has been a major problem. General recommendations for concrete inlays will be presented as well as the specific data of the case (traffic, geometric design, concrete specifications, concrete mix and test results). The second case is the reconstruction of a section of a 40-year-old motorway (A12) in jointed undowelled concrete to create a comfortable new road.
