The purpose of this study is to explore and analyze the variables that determine the success of implementing dynamic governance in West Java. This research was conducted qualitatively using a literature review research design. The data obtained were then analyzed following the steps of qualitative data analysis by Miles, Huberman & Saldana. The results of this study reveal that there are at least four elements that contribute significantly to the success of dynamic governance in West Java, namely the typical pentahelix collaboration, creative funding, digital government, and the Jabar Open Data program. The implications of this study confirm two things. First, program forms in dynamic governance are based on problems in the local environment, so that each region has a different type of program. It's just that in principle the program must be adaptive and accommodating. Second, the design of dynamic governance is the most reliable design for the needs and conditions of the people of West Java today. It could be that the design of agile governance will be adopted by the West Java Provincial Government when dynamic governance is deemed irrelevant and unsolvable.

Approximately 60,000 tons per day of waste from taconite mining, tailing, are added to the west arm of Lake Superior at Silver Bay. Tailings contain nearly the same amount of quartz and amphibole asbestos, cummingtonite and actinolite in fibrous form. Cummingtonite fibres from 0.01μm in length have been found in the water supply for Minnesota municipalities.The purpose of the research work was to develop a method for asbestos fibre counts and identification in water and apply it for the enumeration of fibres in water samples collected(a) at various stations in Lake Superior at two depth: lm and at the bottom.(b) from various rivers in Lake Superior Drainage Basin.

In the West Nile District of Uganda lives a population of white rhino—those relies of a past age, cumbrous, gentle creatures despite their huge bulk—which estimates only 10 years ago, put at 500. But poachers live in the area, too, and official counts showed that white rhino were being reduced alarmingly. By 1959, they were believed to be diminished to 300.
