A central part of this work is the develop- ment and application of a laboratory for process control research in Halden. This simulator-based control room, HAMM- LAB (Halden Man-Machine Laboratory), is now being used actively in a range of projects to develop and test new decision-support, information-sup- port and management-supprt systems for the process industry. A thorough review of the Halden Project and its value for Norway and Norwegian industry was carried out in 1995 through a committee appointed by the Research Council of Norway.

(IFE) is Norway's research institute for tended for a new nuclear and other energy-related tech- nologies. Slightly more than half of the Institute's total research activity revolves around its two research reactors at Halden and Kjeller. IFE's remaining ac- tivities are in the areas of petroleum technology (30%) and other energy technologies (15%). The Institute has had a very successful year in 1995, strengthening its technical and economic position. This is especially the case with the Halden site, which generated increa- sed turnover and produced a very positi- ve financial result The OECD Halden Reactor Project rese- arch programme focuses on safety and operational reliability in nuclear power stations and other complex process plants. There is a strong and increasing international interest in this work. During 1995 two East European coun- tries (Slovakia and Hungary) became members of the Halden Project, as did South Korea. This brought the total Project membership to 19 by the close of the year. IFE continues to collaborate actively in the international effort to im- prove safety in Russian nuclear installa- tions, particularly the nuclear power plants on the Kola Peninsula. This was the subject of a new initiative, whereby IFE entered into an agreement within a NOK 20 million budgetary framework. This work will involve close collaborati- on with the Norwegian authorities, in- cluding the Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority, and with other Nordic countries. The Halden research campus provides an interface with leading international technological research institutes and with industry, giving IFE access to tech- nologies and research data that form the basis of an increasing amount of contract work for Norwegian industry. The scope three-year period, and that die Institute should begin preparing an application for a licence to continue operating the Halden reactor after the year 2000. The Research Council's governing body con- curred with these conclusions, and parti- cularly emphasised the significance of the Project for Norway and its neigh- bours. Further, the Research Council stressed that "the Halden Project, judged by research criteria, is a very successful project, and is the only international re- search project of significant size based in Norway." In Autumn of 1995, based on these positive recommendations from die Research Council, the government and the Norwegian Parliament approved extension of the Project for a new three- year period (1997-99) provided an agre- ement is established with the other member countries. in Norwegian industry.

It follows a similar structure to and complements the final report entitled “Air quality in 7 Norwegian municipalities in 2015 – Summary report for NBV results” (NILU rapport 21/2017) where information on air quality in the seven main city areas in Norway was presented. This report constitutes a user guide for the NBV-services, available at http://www.luftkvalitet-nbv.no, in municipal areas. It provides recommendations on how to best use each product for air quality planning purposes and explains the main strengths and limitations of the results.

  • Anbefaling Om Statlig Forskrift for Kommunene I Viken Og Gran Kommune I Innlandet Fra Midnatt Natt Til 16.3.2021
    15.3.2021 Anbefaling om statlig forskrift for kommunene i Viken og Gran kommune i Innlandet fra midnatt natt til 16.3.2021 Oppsummering • Helsedirektoratet anbefaler iverksettelse av tiltak i samsvar med covid-19-forskriften kapittel 5A for kommunene i Viken fylke og Gran kommune i Innlandet • Tiltakene anbefales iverksatt fra midnatt natt til 16.3.2021 med varighet til og med 11. april 2021 • I møte med Statsforvalteren i Oslo og Viken, kommunene, FHI og Helsedirektoratet svarte 23 kommuner at de ønsket å bli omfattet av kapittel 5A i Covid-19 forskriften, 13 svarte nei, 3 var usikre og de øvrige tok ikke ordet i møtet. Statsforvalter begynte møtet med at hun ønsket at de kommunene som ikke ønsket å bli omfattet av forskriften tok ordet. Gran kommune i Innlandet ønsket å omfattes av forskriften på grunn av nærhet til Lunner og tett kontakt til Oslo. • Helsedirektoratet og FHI mener det er behov for sterke tiltak i kommuner som har en raskt økende smittetrend. Det er betydelig forskjell på smittetrykket mellom ulike kommuner i Viken. Likevel vil Helsedirektoratet og FHI anbefale at vedtaket omfatter hele fylket. I Viken dominerer den engelske virusvarianten med økt smittsomhet. Det er behov for tiltak som begrenser mobilitet gjennom pendling og sosiale og kulturelle aktiviteter mellom kommunene. Over halvparten av kommunene i Viken melder om utfordringer med TISK-kapasiteten. Kapasiteten i spesialisthelsetjenesten i Helse Sør-Øst er presset klinisk på grunn et høyt antall innleggelser og på laboratoriene på grunn av høyt prøvevolum. • Kommunene må til enhver tid konkret vurdere behovet for lokale vedtak og anbefalinger i tillegg, avhengig av den lokale smittesituasjonen.

    1 Upcoming projects Infrastructure Construction Division About Bane NOR Bane NOR is a state-owned company respon- sible for the national railway infrastructure. Our mission is to ensure accessible railway infra- structure and efficient and user-friendly ser- vices, including the development of hubs and goods terminals. The company’s main responsible are: • Planning, development, administration, operation and maintenance of the national railway network • Traffic management • Administration and development of railway property Bane NOR has approximately 4,500 employees and the head office is based in Oslo, Norway. All plans and figures in this folder are preliminary and may be subject for change. 3 Never has more money been invested in Norwegian railway infrastructure. The InterCity rollout as described in this folder consists of several projects. These investments create great value for all travelers. In the coming years, departures will be more frequent, with reduced travel time within the InterCity operating area. We are living in an exciting and changing infrastructure environment, with a high activity level. Over the next three years Bane NOR plans to introduce contracts relating to a large number of mega projects to the market. Investment will continue until the InterCity rollout is completed as planned in 2034. Additionally, Bane NOR plans together with The Norwegian Public Roads Administration, to build a safer and faster rail and road system between Arna and Stanghelle on the Bergen Line (western part of Norway).

  • NORWAY by Børre Ludvigsen1
    NORWAY by Børre Ludvigsen1 0.1 Introduction As Norway was part of the kingdom of Denmark until 1814, legislation gov- erning the production and sale of tobacco and pipes during the 17th and 18th centuries was issued from Copenhagen. The bulk of the literature covering the introduction of tobacco and early growth of the clay pipe industry is also Danish. According to Carl Nyrop2 tobacco came to Denmark around 1620 and its use spread quickly.3 It appeared in Norway even earlier as it seems to have been known in Bergen sometime between 1612 and 1614. By 1619 king Christian IV prohibited its use aboard Norwegian naval vessels because of its damage to health and by 1632 the law was extended to the country as a whole be- cause of “the great damage the drinking of tobacco imposes on our subjects in the kingdom of Norway”. (Christian IV may well have been influenced by his brother-in-law James I’s abhorrence of the drug, but it is also argued that the initial ordinance may have had more to do with the danger of fire aboard ship.) However by 1640 the king capitulated to Norwegian sailors’ insatiable addiction. Writing to Korfits Ulfeldt, the Lord Treasurer, he admonishes him to provide tobacco for the Norwegian sailors in the navy remarking that they “will hardly stay healthy for long without that stuff which they prefer in place of their breakfast”. His concern for the welfare of the rest of his Norwe- gian subjects lasted only until the greater advantage of taxation to the king’s purse became apparent, leading to the law’s repeal in 1643.
