  • SNW Virtual Meeting Minutes Sept 2020
    Barents Euro-Arctic Council Working Group on Environment Subgroup on Nature and Water Minutes of the virtual meeting 23.9.2020 1. Opening of the meeting Chair of the Subgroup Anna Kuhmonen opened the meeting and introduced the agenda. The meeting started with a round of introductions. The list of participants can be found at the end of this document. Ilona Grekelä acts as secretary and writes the minutes. 2. Adoption of the minutes from the previous meeting The Minutes from the previous meeting were adopted. The annex 1 to the SNW work programme 2020-2022 Project list has been updated. This document was delivered to the subgroup ahead of the meeting. New updates are welcome in the future as well to the email addresses: [email protected] and [email protected]. Always before the meeting SNW’s members will get the updated project list. 3. Suggestion on Biodiversity commitment from the Barents Region Ms. Henna Haapala, Ministry of the Environment of Finland (presentation) WGE chair Ms. Henna Haapala presented a suggestion for a joint voluntary commitment to protect biodiversity, that could be given under the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Haapala noted that the Barents region has unique and special ecosystems and already long experience of cross-border initiatives to protect it. The CBD has invited stakeholders ranging from public and private organizations to individuals to give voluntary commitments. Link to CBD is especially topical now, as the Aichi targets are expiring in 2020 and a new global biodiversity framework is being negotiated. The voluntary commitment from the Barents region is suggested to focus on freshwater ecosystems primarily in the river catchment areas that cross either international borders or borders between regions/counties/oblasts.

  • Pasvikdalen Og Varangerhalvøya Mandag 23
    Turrapport NOF Travel Pasvikdalen og Varangerhalvøya mandag 23. – søndag 29. juni 2008 av Morten Günther Turdeltagerne samlet ved Sortbrysttjern - © Per-Arne Johansen. © Morten Günther 2008 Skog og myr, klipper og langgrunne strender. Grenseområdene i Øst-Finnmark har mye å by på. Det fikk vi nok en gang erfare da NOF Travel besøkte Pasvikdalen og Varangerhalvøya for annen gang i slutten av juni 2008. Denne rapporten presenterer de viktigste observasjonene og opplevelsene fra turen sett fra reiselederes synsvinkel. Til sammen deltok 12 personer fra ulike deler av landet. Transporten mellom lokalitetene foregikk med bil. Deltagerne fordelte seg på tre leiebiler med fire personer i hver: en Volkswagen Passat, en Volkswagen Touran og en Volkswagen Golf. Kommunikasjonen mellom bilene foregikk ved hjelp av walkie-talkie. Artslista endte til slutt på 126 observerte fuglearter. De aller fleste av områdets mest karakteristiske arter ble observert, dog med unntak av jordugle og lavskrike. De aller fleste artene ble sett av samtlige turdeltagere. Av pattedyr registrerte vi vånd, ekorn, bisam, rødrev, hare, steinkobbe og havert. Gruppa fungerte bra sammen sosialt og vi opplevde ingen uhell eller andre komplikasjoner underveis.

  • Fylkesros for Troms Og Finnmark, 2019-2021
    Risiko- og sårbarhetsanalyse for Troms og Finnmark 2019-2020 Forord Risiko- og sårbarhetsanalysen for Troms og Finnmark (fylkesROS) beskriver store hendelser som kan ramme samfunnet, og som kommuner eller etater ikke kan håndtere alene. Dersom vi ser oss tilbake, har Troms og Finnmark vært rammet av mange hendelser bare på noen få år. Eksempler på dette er ulike typer skred, langvarige strømbrudd, sperret veg, masseankomst av flyktninger og terrortrussel (nasjonalt). Disse hendelsene har vist at de regionale etatene fortsatt må arbeide for å bedre kommunikasjon og samvirke i situasjoner hvor uønskede hendelser oppstår, selv om vi har erfaringer som viser at man håndterer hendelser godt både lokalt og regionalt. Det er viktig for Fylkesmannen å ha en tett og god dialog med lokale, regionale og nasjonale beredskapsaktører for å kunne tilrettelegge for best mulig beredskap. Det er summen av alle beredskapsaktører sitt beredskapsarbeid som utgjør den regionale beredskapen. Ett av Fylkesmannens oppdrag i så måte er å ha oversikt over risiko og sårbarhet i Troms og Finnmark. Å lage en FylkesROS er ett av verktøyene. FylkesROS for Finnmark og Troms 2019-2021 er en begrenset revisjon basert på FylkesROS for Troms 2016-2019 og FylkesROS for Finnmark 2014-2017. Vi starter i 2020 arbeidet med en grundigere revisjon av FylkesROS for Troms og Finnmark. FylkesROS er et felles dokument til det beste for de som bor og oppholder seg i Troms og Finnmark. Oppfølgingsplanen vil følges opp gjennom det årlige møtet til fylkesberedskapsrådet. Fylkesmannen vil takke alle som har bidratt inn i analysearbeidet og ønske lykke til med det videre arbeidet for et trygt og godt Troms og Finnmark.

Simmons Andrea Mitchell University Professor of Law, Political Science and Business Ethics University of Pennsylvania 3501 Sansom St, Philadelphia, PA 19104 [email protected] Abstract: International political borders have historically performed one overriding function: the delimitation of a state’s territorial jurisdiction, but today they are sites of intense security scrutiny and law enforcement. Traditionally they were created to secure peace through territorial independence of political units. Today borders face new pressures from heightened human mobility, economic interdependence (legal and illicit), and perceived challenges from a host of nonstate threats. Research has only begun to reveal what some of these changes mean for the governance of interstate borders.

Høringsutkastet til ny flerbruksplan er utarbeidet av miljømyndighetene i Norge, Russland og Finland. Planarbeidet er forankret i handlingsprogrammet til den norsk-russisk miljøvernkommisjonen (2019-2021) og har vært gjennomført som et eget prosjekt bla. med finansering fra EU’s Kolarctic program. Planarbeidet har vært koordinert på norsk side av Statsforvalteren i Troms og Finnmark. I Russland er Pasvik statlige naturreservat ansvarlig og i Finland den regionale ELY-senteret (Nærings-, trafikk og miljøsentralen i Lappland). Flerbruksplanen har ingen formell juridisk, men vil være et viktig forvaltningsverktøy i det fremtidige samarbeidet om grensevassdragene og deres nedbørfelt. Relevante punkter fra planens tiltaksprogram vil bli tatt inn i øvrige internasjonale og nasjonale plandokument med formell juridisk status. Det ble gjennomført et høringsmøte for norske organisasjoner den 19. mai 2019 ved NIBIO Svanhovd. Innspill fra dette møtet er vurdert i vedlegg 2. Innspill til høringsutkastet sendes skriftlig til Statsforvalteren i Troms og Finnmark, postboks 700, 9815 Vadsø eller [email protected] innen fredag 11. juni. Det er åpent for alle å gi innspill. Vi gjør oppmerksom på at Troms og Finnmark fylkeskommune har sendt den regionale vannforvaltningsplanen for norsk-finsk vannregion på høring med høringsfrist den 31. mai. Deler av innholdet er overlappende, men den regionale vannforvaltningsplanen omhandler ikke tiltak i Russland.
