    Abstract: La vitesse excessive est aujourd'hui responsable d'environ un tiers du nombre - inacceptable - de tués sur les routes. Réduire les vitesses moyennes de seulement 5% permettrait de sauver environ 20% des tués sur les routes. Ce rapport, préparé par un Groupe de travail du Centre conjoint OCDE/CEMT de Recherche sur les Transports, examine ces enjeux importants et identifie les améliorations nécessaires pour s’attaquer au problème de la vitesse, que ce soit au niveau des politiques ou de l’exploitation des infrastructures. Il esquisse un cadre pour parvenir au meilleur résultat en termes de sécurité routière tout en préservant l'environnement et en contribuant à une mobilité durable.

    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: L’adjudication par appels d’offres est un moyen d’ouvrir le marché des transports ferroviaires à la concurrence tout en conservant un réseau intégré de services. Cette pratique a été utilisée pour les transports ferroviaires de marchandises dans certains pays. Mais elle est surtout intéressante pour les réseaux de transport de passagers lorsque des services subventionnés rendent difficile, voire impossible, l’instauration d’une concurrence entre des trains assurant les mêmes trajets. Ce rapport passe en revue les expériences d’adjudication par appels d’offres des services ferroviaires mises en œuvre à ce jour de par le monde. Il cherche à tirer des enseignements susceptibles d’améliorer la conception des concessions et de la réglementation, à partir d’exemples de réussite ou de cas moins probants. Les travaux reposent sur des examens approfondis - menés par d’éminents experts - des expériences de concessions de transports ferroviaires de voyageurs au Royaume-Uni, en Australie, en Allemagne, en Suède et aux Pays-Bas. Ils s’appuient également sur des exemples de concessions de fret ferroviaire en Amérique latine.

    Abstract: Much of the current policy debate has considered infrastructure charges as a form of “fiscal” instrument for managing transport demand. The Round Table analysed the opportunities for setting infrastructure service prices so that they also provide guidance for the supply of services. It discussed the possibilities of increasing the finances available for transport infrastructure investment and maintenance by introducing a quasi-market for transport infrastructure services. The general public impression is that charges are a just another tax increase in disguise. Infrastructure charging that uses a mix of “fees for service” and capacity expansion criteria is expected to correct this impression, and thus to improve the political acceptability of infrastructure pricing.

    Series Statement: CSNI Technical Opinion Papers no.9
    Keywords: Nuclear Energy
    Abstract: This technical opinion paper represents the consensus of risk analysts in NEA member countries on the current state of the art of level-2 probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) and its applications in accident management of nuclear power plants. Level-2 PSA models the phenomena that could occur following the onset of core damage that have the potential to challenge the containment integrity and lead to a release of radioactive material to the environment. The paper's objective is to present decision makers in the nuclear field with a clear technical opinion on the status as implemented in industrial PSAs. The intended audience is primarily nuclear safety regulators, researchers and industry representatives dealing with safety management and severe accidents. Government authorities and nuclear power plant operators may also be interested in the paper.

    Abstract: La Table Ronde analyse la raison d’être de la libéralisation du secteur des taxis et l’expérience acquise dans les pays membres de l’OCDE et de la CEMT en matière de réglementation de la profession. Cette réglementation s’articule autour de plusieurs axes, à savoir l’accès au marché, les tarifs et la qualité des services. Le débat conceptuel arrive à la conclusion que la thèse selon laquelle des restrictions à l’entrée du marché améliorent l’utilisation de la capacité n’est guère étayée par les faits. Au contraire, on peut alléguer que l’augmentation du nombre d’entrées dans la profession et les économies de densité qui en découlent, ainsi que la diminution des temps d’attente pour l’usager, justifient l’octroi de subventions à l’entrée.

    Abstract: Le débat en cours sur les politiques à mener traite le plus souvent les redevances d’utilisation des infrastructures comme s’il s’agissait d’instruments fiscaux destinés à gérer la demande de transport. La Table Ronde a analysé les perspectives de voir l’offre de services infrastructurels guidée également par les prix de ces services. Elle a débattu des possibilités d’accroître les moyens mobilisables pour financer les investissements en infrastructures de transport et l’entretien de ces dernières en créant un quasi-marché des services d’infrastructures de transport. Le public a souvent l’impression que les redevances représentent une hausse déguisée de la taxation. Une tarification qui prend en compte l’usage des infrastructures (moyennant une redevance par unité de service) et certains critères pour accroître la capacité des infrastructures devrait corriger cette impression et favoriser ainsi l’acceptabilité politique de la tarification des infrastructures.

    Abstract: Pour de nombreux urbanistes, il est important de contenir l’étalement urbain, qui est considéré comme à l’origine des coûts environnementaux et de la congestion. En revanche, beaucoup d’économistes attribuent des avantages à l’étalement urbain, qui permet par exemple aux ménages d’accéder à des logements plus grands et moins chers. Cette Table Ronde examine les coûts et les avantages de l’étalement urbain, en mettant en évidence les liens qui existent entre forme urbaine et croissance économique. Elle étudie les arbitrages à faire quand on tente de contenir l’extension des villes. Les débats prennent appui sur des communications de Mme Elizabeth Deakin (UC Berkeley) et de MM. Matthew Kahn (Tufts University), Gilles Duranton (University of Toronto) et David Banister (University College London).

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Forty Years of Uranium Resources, Production and Demand in Perspective; The Red Book Retrospective
    Keywords: Nuclear Energy ; Electronic books
    Abstract: La première parution de la publication bisannuelle, Ressources, production et demande de l'uranium, remonte à 1965 et, depuis lors, il s’est imposé à travers le monde comme un ouvrage de référence sur l’uranium. En 40 ans d’existence, le Livre rouge a accumulé une impressionnante moisson de données officielles fournies par les gouvernements. La rétrospective du « Livre rouge » a été entreprise pour collecter, rassembler, analyser et publier toutes les informations clés recueillies dans les 20 éditions du Livre rouge parues entre 1965 et 2004. Par ailleurs, c'était l'occasion de compléter certaines informations afin de présenter un état des lieux aussi achevé et exhaustif que possible. Au final, la Rétrospective du Livre rouge dresse un tableau évolutif complet du secteur de l’uranium à l’échelle mondiale dans les domaines suivants : prospection, ressources, production, besoins liés aux réacteurs, inventaires et prix. On y examine dans le détail le chemin parcouru par les grands pays producteurs d’uranium, notamment l’Allemagne (y compris l’ex-République démocratique allemande), l’Australie, le Canada, les États-Unis, la Fédération de Russie (y compris l’ex-Union des républiques socialistes soviétiques) et la France. Ainsi peut-on, pour la première fois, obtenir une vision globale de la production et de la demande annuelles et cumulées d’uranium depuis l’avènement de l’ère atomique. Outre les données chronologiques et les documents connexes, on trouvera dans la Rétrospective du Livre rouge des analyses d’experts qui jettent une lumière nouvelle sur certaines dimensions importantes du secteur comme : le coût des découvertes, les ratios entre ressources et production, et le délai qui sépare la découverte de la production, entre autres.

    Abstract: Interest in nuclear energy continues to grow in many countries as a means to ensure security of energy supply and to limit greenhouse gas emissions from the power sector. In this context, recyclable materials constitute an asset for broadening the resource base for nuclear fuel supply, especially in medium- and long-term perspectives. This report provides an overview of recyclable fissile and fertile materials inventories which can be reused as nuclear fuel. It reviews the options available for managing those materials, through recycling and/or disposal. The potential energetic value of recyclable materials is assessed, taking into account the variability of retrievable energy contents of various materials according to technology and strategy choices made by the owners of the materials. The analyses contained in this report will be of particular interest to energy policy makers and to nuclear fuel cycle experts.

    Abstract: Containing sprawl is a major preoccupation of many urban planners, who view sprawl as responsible for driving up environmental costs and congestion. Nevertheless, many economists see benefits to sprawl, allowing households access to larger and cheaper properties. This Round Table examines the costs and benefits of sprawl, shedding light on the linkages between urban form and economic growth, and explored the tradeoffs involved in trying to contain sprawl. Discussions were based on papers prepared by Elizabeth Deakin (UC Berkeley), Matthew Kahn (Tufts University), Gilles Duranton (University of Toronto) and David Banister (University College London).

    Abstract: This volume provides a state-of-the-art report on the modelling of aqueous-solid solution systems by the combined use of chemical thermodynamics and experimental and computational techniques. These systems are ubiquitous in nature and therefore intrinsic to the understanding and quantification of radionuclide containment and retardation processes present in geological repositories of radioactive waste. Representative cases for study have been chosen from the radioactive waste literature to illustrate the application of the various approaches. This report has been prepared by a team of four leading experts in the field under the auspices of the OECD/NEA Thermochemical Database (TDB) Project.

    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: This Round Table examines the basic case for liberalisation of the taxi industry, and reviews experiences with taxi (de-)regulation in OECD and ECMT member countries. There are a number of aspects to regulation of the taxi industry including entry, price and service quality regulation. The discussions of these aspects concluded that little empirical evidence supported the argument that entry restrictions improved capacity utilisation. On the contrary, the case could be made that increased entry and associated economies of density, as well as shorter passenger waiting times, warranted subsidies for entry.

    Parallel Title: Druckausg.
    Keywords: Nuclear Energy ; Canada ; Radioaktiver Abfall ; Endlagerung ; Geowissenschaften
    Abstract: The long-term safety of deep disposal of radioactive waste is strongly dependent on the performance of the geological setting. The geology fulfils important safety functions including isolating the waste from human contact or intrusion, providing a stable physical and chemical environment, insulating against external disturbances, and preventing or delaying the transport of radioactive materials away from the waste. Thus, a sound understanding of the geology's history and evolution is central in supporting assessments that examine the long-term performance and safety of deep disposal. This conference proceedings examines how geoscientific arguments and data are compiled and linked to create a unified description of the geological setting to support a safety case. It also examines practical aspects and limitations in collecting, linking, extrapolating and communicating such information.

    Abstract: Cost data for the construction and operation of facilities are essential for the evaluation of infrastructure services supplied by private or public providers. This roundtable examines what data is needed for evaluation; which methods best measure the efficiency of service provision and benchmark providers; how regulatory regimes impact costs; and how regulators can counter the asymmetry of information as well as the incentive for data providers to selectively serve business rather than user interests.

    Series Statement: Radioactive Waste Management
    Keywords: Nuclear Energy ; Spain
    Abstract: In the deep disposal of radioactive waste, the presence of several barriers serving complementary safety functions enhances confidence that the waste will be isolated and contained to protect human health and the environment. The barriers include the natural geological barrier and the engineered barrier system (EBS). The EBS itself may comprise a variety of sub-systems or components, such as the waste form, container, buffer, backfill, seals and plugs. These proceedings include the main findings and presented papers from the third NEA-EC workshop on engineered barrier systems, which focused on the role of EBS modelling in the safety case for deep disposal. The workshop examined the modelling tools currently available and identified complex areas of assessment in which further dialogue is needed.

    Abstract: These proceedings present the main findings from, and the papers delivered at, the fourth NEA-EC workshop on Engineered Barrier Systems (EBS), which took place in Tokyo, Japan, in September 2006. This final workshop of the series focused on strategies and methods to demonstrate that EBS designs will fulfill he relevant requirements for long-term safety, engineering feasibility and quality assurance. The workshop highlighted that large-scale experiments have confirmed the feasibility of techniques for manufacturing and installing engineered components in disposal systems and have also provided valuable lessons to improve designs and refine practical aspects to construct and implement EBS.

    Abstract: Taxis are an essential mode of transport for disabled and older people. The combination of the personal service they offer, their wide availability and door-to-door operations enable them to respond particularly well to the travel needs of people with disabilities. Although several countries have made progress in improving the accessibility of taxi services, much remains to be done. This joint ECMT/IRU study examines factors relating to the design and manufacture of taxi vehicles and considers practical measures to increase the production and use of accessible taxis.

    Abstract: Competitive tendering provides a way to introduce competition to railways whilst preserving an integrated network of services. It has been used for freight railways in some countries but is particularly attractive for passenger networks when subsidised services make competition between trains serving the same routes difficult or impossible to organise. This report examines experience to date from around the world in competitively tendering rail services. It seeks to draw lessons for effective design of concessions and regulation from both the successful and less successful cases examined. The work is based on detailed examinations by leading experts of the experience of passenger rail concessions in the United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands. It also draws on examples of freight rail concessions in Latin America.
