The network of SALT offices keep growing. We are now also established in beautiful Vestnes in Møre og Romsdal. Senior Advisor Tale Skrove has brought both the job and her office dog Pelle back home. With this expansion, SALT strengthens our presence along the western coast of Norway. You are warmly welcome to stop by Tale for a conversation about potential collaborations and new projects where SALT can contribute with our expertise. Our office is located in Stadionvegen 2 at Helland.
Since its launch in 2016, SALT has managed the current Norwegian Fishing for Litter scheme. As the scheme is not proposed to be continued in next year’s national budget, it is an urgent need to establish new solutions. This is the message from Project Manager Hilde Rødås Johnsen and Managing Director Kjersti Eline Tønnessen Busch at SALT, in a recently published statement.
Through the Fishing for Litter scheme, more than 1,600 tonnes of marine litter have been collected — a result SALT is proud of. Together with the organization Norwegian Harbours (Norske Havner) and The Norwegian Fishermen Association (Norges Fiskarlag), we are now exploring how the valuable experience gained through the scheme can be used to develop waste reception facilities in all Norwegian ports. Learn more about this initiative here.
