    EUROPEAN COMMISSION DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR ENERGY DIRECTORATE D - Nuclear Safety and Fuel Cycle Radiation Protection Main Conclusions of the Commission’s Article 35 verification NATIONAL MONITORING NETWORK FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RADIOACTIVITY Central and Southern Italy Campania, Molise, Abruzzo, Marche, Umbria and Lazio DISCHARGE AND ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING Garigliano NPP Date: 12 to 17 September 2011 Verification team: Mr C. Gitzinger (team leader) Mr E. Henrich Mr. E. Hrnecek Mr. A. Ryan Reference: IT-11/06 INTRODUCTION Article 35 of the Euratom Treaty requires that each Member State shall establish facilities necessary to carry out continuous monitoring of the levels of radioactivity in air, water and soil and to ensure compliance with the basic safety standards (1). Article 35 also gives the European Commission (EC) the right of access to such facilities in order that it may verify their operation and efficiency. For the EC, the Directorate-General for Energy (DG ENER) and in particular its Radiation Protection Unit (at the time of the visit ENER.D.4, now ENER.D.3) is responsible for undertaking these verifications. The main purpose of verifications performed under Article 35 of the Euratom Treaty is to provide an independent assessment of the adequacy of monitoring facilities for: - Liquid and airborne discharges of radioactivity into the environment by a site (and control thereof). - Levels of environmental radioactivity at the site perimeter and in the marine, terrestrial and aquatic environment around the site, for all relevant pathways. - Levels of environmental radioactivity on the territory of the Member State. Taking into account previous bilateral protocols, a Commission Communication has been published in the Official Journal on 4 July 2006 with a view to define some practical arrangements for the conduct of Article 35 verification visits in Member States.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis compares Umbria before and after the Roman conquest in order to assess the impact of the imposition of Roman control over this area of central Italy. There are four sections specifically on Umbria and two more general chapters of introduction and conclusion. The introductory chapter examines the most important issues for the history of the Italian regions in this period and the extent to which they are relevant to Umbria, given the type of evidence that survives. The chapter focuses on the concept of state formation, and the information about it provided by evidence for urbanisation, coinage, and the creation of treaties. The second chapter looks at the archaeological and other available evidence for the history of Umbria before the Roman conquest, and maps the beginnings of the formation of the state through the growth in social complexity, urbanisation and the emergence of cult places.

    EC-SQUARE - Eradication and control of grey squirrel: actions for preservation of biodiversity in forest ecosystems LIFE09 NAT/IT/000095 Project description Environmental issues Beneficiaries Administrative data Read more Contact details: Project Manager: Giorgio BONALUME Tel: 0039-02-67652492 Fax: +39 2 67655414 Email: [email protected] Project description: Background Grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) are acknowledged as an invasive alien species which has threatened the native Eurasian red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) in the British Isles and parts of northern Italy. The grey squirrel can also cause extensive damage to trees through bark-stripping, which affects re-growth and natural tree reproduction in commercial plantations and other forest ecosystems. The spread of grey squirrel in northern Italy represents a problem for the entire European continent, since from Italy the alien species is predicted to colonise surrounding countries, particularly France and Switzerland. Objectives The main objective of the EC-SQUARE project was to control and eradicate threats caused by grey squirrel (and other non-native squirrel species) in different socio-ecological contexts, in three different regions of northern Italy: Lombardy (Lombardia), Liguria and Piedmont (Piemonte). The aim was to produce a decision support system to identify the most efficient management strategy in each case, and to elaborate best practice guidelines for grey squirrel control and eradication. In addition, the project planned to carry out conservation actions in each region to improve habitat quality and/or connectivity of forests patches for red squirrel. Red squirrel will be reintroduced on a site in Lombardy to establish a minimum viable population, following the on a site in Lombardy to establish a minimum viable population, following the removal of grey squirrels.

  • Tonnare in Italy: Science, History, and Culture of Sardinian Tuna Fishing 1
    Tonnare in Italy: Science, History, and Culture of Sardinian Tuna Fishing 1 Katherine Emery The Mediterranean Sea and, in particular, the cristallina waters of Sardinia are confronting a paradox of marine preservation. On the one hand, Italian coastal resources are prized nationally and internationally for their natural beauty as well as economic and recreational uses. On the other hand, deep-seated Italian cultural values and traditions, such as the desire for high-quality fresh fish in local cuisines and the continuity of ancient fishing communities, as well as the demands of tourist and real-estate industries, are contributing to the destruction of marine ecosystems. The synthesis presented here offers a unique perspective combining historical, scientific, and cultural factors important to one Sardinian tonnara in the context of the larger global debate about Atlantic bluefin tuna conservation. This article is divided into four main sections, commencing with contextual background about the Mediterranean Sea and the culture, history, and economics of fish and fishing. Second, it explores as a case study Sardinian fishing culture and its tonnare , including their history, organization, customs, regulations, and traditional fishing method. Third, relevant science pertaining to these fisheries’ issues is reviewed. Lastly, the article considers the future of Italian tonnare and marine conservation options. Fish and fishing in the Mediterranean and Italy The word ‘Mediterranean’ stems from the Latin words medius [middle] and terra [land, earth]: middle of the earth. 2 Ancient Romans referred to it as “ Mare nostrum ” or “our sea”: “the territory of or under the control of the European Mediterranean countries, especially Italy.” 3 Today, the Mediterranean Sea is still an important mutually used resource integral to littoral and inland states’ cultures and trade.

  • A Methodology for Assessing the Spatial Distribution of Static Wildfire Risk Over Wide Areas: the Case Studies of Liguria and Sardinia (Italy) 1
    A methodology for assessing the spatial distribution of static wildfire risk over wide areas: the case studies of Liguria and Sardinia (Italy) 1 Antonella Bodini, Erika Entrade Institute of Applied Mathematics and Information Technology (CNR-IMATI, Milano), [email protected] Q. Antonio Cossu, Simona Canu Environmental Protection Agency of Sardinia (ARPAS) Paolo Fiorucci, Francesco Gaetani CIMA Research Foundation Ulderica Paroli Regione Liguria, Civil Protection and Emergency Department Abstract : In Mediterranean areas, some studies suggest universal increases in fire frequency due to climatic warming. However, some authors point out that the universality of these results is questionable. In this study, we try to go beyond the simple analysis of statistical data related with the number of fires and the total burned area, which can be misleading in the context of climate change. The fire perimeters have been used to inquire spatialized climate indexes and the vegetation cover. A statistical analysis of climate indexes has been conducted and a certain number of Type of Homogeneous Areas (THA) defined by introducing information on vegetation cover. The comparison of THA and climatic indexes allowed the definition of an index of risk. Maps of this index highlight risky areas in Liguria and Sardinia (Italy). Keywords : climate change, climate indexes, static wildfire risk, vegetation cover. 1. Introduction In Mediterranean area, some studies in the later ’90 (Piñol et al . 1998) predicted a continue increase of the number of days of very high fire risk, and more frequent catastrophic wildfires. Some studies, in the same period, suggested universal increases in fire frequency with climatic warming (Overpeck et al .

The article reconstructs the activities of the Cassa, by taking ad- vantage of its yearly reports. The agency was effective in the first two decades, thanks to substantial technical autonomy and, in the 1960s, to a strong focus on industrial develop- ment; however, since the 1970s it progressively became an instrument of waste and misalloc- ation. Below this broad picture, we find important differences at the regional level, and signi- ficant correspondence between the quality of state intervention and the regional patterns of GDP and productivity. Keywords: Southern Italy, regional development, State intervention, industrialization, con- vergence.
