Starum

The Norwegian Civil Defence and Emergency Resource Center, Oppland civil defence district is located at Starum, Norway. The Norwegian Civil Defence is a state resource enhancement for public safety agencies when handling large and special events - an important player in the Norwegian rescue service.
