  • Revisjon Av Konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene I Hemnes, Hattfjelldal Og Grane Kommuner I Nordland
    Olje- og energidepartementet Postboks 8148 Dep 0033 OSLO Vår dato: 05.11.2020 Vår ref.: 200700445-123 Arkiv: 315 / 155.Z Saksbehandler: Deres dato: Ragnhild Stokker Deres ref.: Revisjon av konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene i Hemnes, Hattfjelldal og Grane kommuner i Nordland - NVEs innstilling På bakgrunn av krav fra Hemnes, Hattfjelldal og Grane kommuner, åpnet NVE sak om revisjon av konsesjonsvilkår for reguleringene i Røssågavassdraget, inkludert Øvre og Nedre Røssåga kraftverk. Statkraft Energi AS er konsesjonær. NVE har lagt vekt på hensynet til naturverdiene som finnes i vassdraget og balansert dette mot hensynet til Røssågareguleringenes store betydning for kraftproduksjon og kraftsystemet. Vi anbefaler at det innføres nye og moderne standard konsesjonsvilkår for Røssågareguleringene. Vilkårene vil gi myndighetene hjemmel til å pålegge relevante, avbøtende tiltak. Videre anbefaler vi at det slippes en minstevannføring nedstrøms Nedre Røssåga kraftverk på 30 m3/s hele året, samt smoltutvandringsflom med varighet i tre døgn i mai/juni. Vi anbefaler også at det fastsettes begrensninger for effektkjøring for driftsvannføringer lavere enn 60 m3/s. I tillegg at vannstanden i Stormyrbassenget holdes stabilt høy i hekkeperioden for fugl. Vi foreslår at det pålegges konsesjonæren å yte tilskudd til et fond, ved årlige utbetalinger på 150 000 kr, som skal fremme fisk, vilt og friluftsliv i kommunene. Foreslåtte restriksjoner for vannføring og vannstand vil ikke føre til krafttap, sammenlignet med dagens praksis. Fleksibiliteten og regulerbarheten i systemet vil i liten grad bli påvirket.

Dating of late- to post-tectonic Sveconorwegian granitic intrusions from South Norway by the SIMS U-Pb method on zircons and by internal Pb-Pb isochrons on rock-forming minerals indicates a major event of granitic magmatism all across southern Norway in the period 950 to 920 Ma. This magmatic event included emplacement of mantle- derived magma into the source region of granitic magmas in the lower crust east of the Mandal-Ustaoset shear zone, and formation of hybrid magmas containing crustal and mantle-derived components.

  • Krever Større Tilgjengelighet Snart Går En Million Nordmenn Ut I Sommerferie
    Pressemelding NextGenTel 17. juni 2010. Aldri helt fri: Krever større tilgjengelighet Snart går en million nordmenn ut i sommerferie. Men stadig flere av oss opplever at jobben krever større tilgjengelighet. Tre av fire nordmenn (74,8 prosent) sier at kravene om tilgjengelighet har økt de siste to årene. Det er særlig blant menn at opplevelsen av tilgjengelighet er stor. I en trendanalyse blant 504 beslutningstakere i norske bedrifter svarer 76,3 prosent av mennene at de opplever høyere krav til tilgjengelighet enn tidligere. Tilsvarende tall for de kvinnelige beslutningstakerne er 69,2 prosent. - Mobiltelefon, bredbåndslinjer og mobilbredbånd har gjort det mye lettere å være tilgjengelig, enten det er via telefon eller via epost. For mange kan nok disse nye mulighetene oppleves mer som et krav enn en mulighet, sier direktør for marked og informasjon Morten Ågnes i NextGenTel AS, som står bak trendanalysen. Han understreker samtidig at funnene fokuserer på krav fra kunder, leverandører og forretningsforbindelser. Undersøkelsen viser at kun en av fire bedrifter (23,2 prosent) krever at medarbeiderne alltid skal ha internettilgang. Trendundersøkelsen viser at det er store aldersmessige forskjeller i forhold til opplevelsen av økt krav til tilgjengelighet. Og det er særlig medarbeidere i aldersgruppen 36 til 50 år, som har opplevd en spesielt stor økning i kravet til tilgjengelighet de siste to årene. Her bekrefter åtte av ti (77,2 prosent) et høyere krav til tilgjengelighet. For personer over 65 år er tilsvarende tall 64,9 prosent, en forskjell på over 12 prosentpoeng. Lettere å ta ferie i små bedrifter Trendundersøkelsen viser også at det er stor forskjell på om du jobber i en stor eller liten bedrift.
