Sluttrapport for prosjekt: Vedlikehold, videreutvikling og tiltaksanalyse av forsvarssektorens miljødatabase

During the period 2009-2012 FFI has adapted the Norwegian defence environmental database (NDED) to fit the defence sector’s requirements through the project 1153: Maintenance, development and measures analysis of the NDED, financed by the Ministry of Defence (MoD). NDED is established to collect relevant environmental information and store it in one place. The information gathered here serves two purposes: 1. Cover the defence sector’s requirements on reporting to the environmental authorities and other interested parties. 2. Form the foundation for decisions concerning environmental efficiency measures on the defence sector’s own activities on all levels of the organization. In the project period a lot of the effort has been directed toward the upgrading of the software to TEAMS SR, as well as improving the data quality in all the reporting areas. This ensures good reports in the time ahead and a shift of the resource usage toward analysis work. The reporting in the NDED has generally been good on the environmental aspects of waste, energy, fuel and water throughout the entire project period and lacking in the areas of ammunition, chemicals and accidental emissions. The digital form (DBL 750) for reporting of ammunition was upgraded in 2012 and will hopefully result in a higher degree of reporting in the next period. Overall the estimated values published in the project period are more accurate than in previous years, mostly due to an increased degree of reporting and that the background experience is more solid. Establishment of data imports during the period has been one of the main reasons for the improved reporting. NDED has been considerably strengthened with regards to the amount of data, the degree of detail and the quality of the data during the project period. It now has a size and scope that enable environmental efficiency analysis of the defence sector’s activities.
