  • Interreg I / Ii : Cross-Border Cooperation
    INTERREG I / II : CROSS-BORDER COOPERATION Euregio Meuse-Rhine: implementation and management in practice Speech by Mr K.H. Lambertz - Chair of the Monitoring Committee for the Euregio Meuse-Rhine Interreg Programme - Director of Euregio Meuse-Rhine - Minister-President of the German-speaking community of Belgium 1. General background and geographical situation In 1974, the governors of the Dutch and Belgian provinces of Limburg, together with the Chief Executive of the Cologne county administration, acted on the proposal made to them by the future Queen of the Netherlands, Princess Beatrix, during an official visit to Maastricht, to draw up draft arrangements for an association under which even closer cross-border collaboration could develop, along the lines of the Dutch-German Euregio project that had been running since 1957. This initiative was part of the new Community direction in regional policy, which in 1975 was to be provided with an instrument to assist economic development called the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). In 1976, the principle of cross-border institutions was passed in law. Initially formed as an ad hoc association, the Euregio Meuse-Rhine was designed to promote integration between inhabitants on each side of the national borders. The area covers: • in Holland: the southern part of the Dutch province of Limburg; • in Germany: the city of Aachen, and the districts of Aachen, Heinsberg, Düren and Euskirchen, which make up the Aachen Regio, and • in Belgium: the entire province of Limburg. The province of Liège joined the Euregio Meuse-Rhine in 1978. In 1992, the German-speaking community of Belgium became the fifth partner in the Euregio Meuse- Rhine.

  • Holocene Alluvial Sediment Deposition in Contrasting Environments in Northwestern Europe
    298 Sediment Dynamics in Changing Environments (Proceedings of a symposium held in Christchurch, New Zealand, December 2008). IAHS Publ. 325, 2008. Holocene alluvial sediment deposition in contrasting environments in northwestern Europe B. NOTEBAERT & G. VERSTRAETEN Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, K.U. Leuven, Celestijnenlaan 200E, B-3001 Leuven, Belgium [email protected] Abstract The total mass of Holocene alluvial sediment storage was estimated for three Belgian catchments (Dijle, Gulp and Amblève), with areas ranging between 47 and 1070 km2. The Dijle and Gulp catchments have comparable, rather intensive, land-use histories, while the land use in the Amblève catchment is less intensive and developed more recently. Topography is more pronounced in the Amblève catchment and more gentle in the Dijle catchment. In total, 1070 hand augerings were made to study fluvial deposition at 96 cross-sections across the flood plain. Average flood-plain deposition masses for the different catchments were calculated at different spatial scales. The results show that alluvial sediment storage is much higher for the Dijle catchment (464 103 Mg/km2 catchment area) compared to the Gulp (128 103 Mg/km2) and Amblève catchment (33 103 Mg/km2). Comparison with other data from West European catchments shows that alluvial sediment storage is much larger for the Dijle catchment, while that for the Amblève is very low. These differences between catchments can be attributed to their land-use history. Land use plays a role in both the soil erosion rates and in the sediment transport towards the fluvial system. Radiocarbon dating results for the Dijle flood plain indicate that major changes in land use are responsible for changing flood plain sedimentation.

Hinzu kommen zahlreiche Fahrten von Besuchern, Touristen und Be- rufspendlern, die Aachen zum Ziel haben. Rund 15 Prozent dieser Wege werden mit Bussen und Bahnen zurückgelegt, Tendenz steigend. Die Busse sind stark ausgelastet, die Zahl der Ein- und Ausstei- ger an Aachener Bahnhöfen wächst kontinuierlich. Aachen hat in der Vergangenheit viel für den Ausbau des Öffentlichen Personennahverkehrs (ÖPNV) unter- nommen, denn ein leistungsfähiger ÖPNV ist das Kernstück unseres urbanen Verkehrssystems. Die weitere Entwicklung für die kommenden Jahre wird in diesem Nahverkehrs- plan beschrieben. Dabei sind viele Herausforderungen auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen anzunehmen: Die Bevölkerung lebt länger und wird mobiler, die Hoch- schulen als starker Motor unserer wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung wachsen, ebenso wie die Verflechtungen mit unserem Umland - auch in die niederländischen und belgischen Nachbargemeinden hinein. Gleichzeitig steigen
