SARMa – Sustainable Aggregates Resource Management WP5 Günter Tiess, Montan University of Leoben 15-17 June, Region of Emilia Romagna, Bologna

Content of Presentation Purpose of WP5 Important issues Overview of WP5 Details of WP5

Purpose of WP5 WP addresses transnational aspects and possibilities for harmonizing policies/legislation related to 1) SARM 2) secure supply, 3) establishment of a Regional Centre for SARM and SSM. First 2 activities lead to recommendations for creation of a Aggregate Intelligence System (AIS) for SEE. multi-purpose, multi-scale interoperable Outputs will be summarized in a manual incorporating outputs of WP4, using in dissemination activities (workshops, brochures). Workshops on transnational supply: Will emphasize how to ensure SSM, considering environmental impacts considering increased recycling, enhancing economic development across SEE. Regional Centre has potential to become a durable result of the project.

Important issues of WP5 Creation of a SARMa-method and SSM-Policies Implementation of transnational view of theoretical and practical outputs in SEE. Know-how transfer through AIS integration and Regional Centre establishment of SARM and SSM, in order to achieve efficient implementation of SARM harmonized approaches, thus increasing sustainable quality of life, resource efficiency and long term cooperation in SEE countries.

Overview of WP 5 / Objectives Feasibility study and action plan for Regional Centre on SARM in SEE 5.4 Long term implementation of SARMa, i.e. Outputs of WP3,4,5. As well as AIS. 5.1 Legislation and policies harmonization Cross-border case studies, integrating SARM into land use planning, AIS-design M A SARM and SSM Manual for national and transantional level 5.3 SARM and SSM manual, recommend SEE countries to develop their aggregates resource management. 5.2 Sustainable supply among SEE Synthesis on supply aspects of case studies, land use planning, management, AIS-clarifiaction R

Overview of WP 5 / Methodology WP5 will be based on outcomes of W1-W4. WP5.1: Harmonization Case studies in defined areas (AT-SI-HU-HR + GR, RO + IT) WP 5.2: Securing supply Synthesis of collected information from WP 5.1 WP 5.3: Manual (national/transnational) Partners of WP4 and WP 5, providing information WP 4: Regional centre Feasibility study
