This paper is one of a series prepared on the behalf of the IEEE System eration Committee to focus industry attention on current &%ems faced by system operaton. The paper contains 6 short-note reports, describing arrent and SO2 Reduction Program: The S o 2 laws will be implemented in 2 phases. In Phase I, which begins in 1995,261 generating units from 110 power plants are required to effectively limit their SO2 emissions under 2.5 lb MBtu (Table 1). At the receive fi SO^ emission allowances: emerging needs of electric utilities in the emission area. b e g w n of each ye? starting in I 995, each Phase-I unit will

Grœnlandica, which is part of Nunatta Atuagaateqarfia, the main library in Greenland, serves as the national library. It has a collection of 56,000 volumes, and is responsible for legal deposit and the library's research collection, including the largest collection in the Arctic region of material on Greenland, the Inuit, and the Arctic. It suffers from shortages of space, staff and funds, but one of its main challenges is to preserve the unique early printed works. A new national and research library is scheduled to open as part of a new university campus in 2005, when it will be separated from the public library.
