Recent reports state the court has approved the city of Hamburg’s €40 million lawsuit against the primary contractor HochTief
who has stopped working in four areas of the €600 million project this past November
HochTief blames the architect due to differences in its plans
In 2003, Hamburg developer Alexander Gérard commissioned the Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron to design a new concert hall built upon the historic warehouse
the heart of the project revolves around the Grand Hall
The building also includes a smaller Recital Hall
a 250 room five-star hotel and 45 residential flats
The Elbphilharmonie building was originally approved by the Hamburg city parliaments with a total cost estimate of €241.3 million
of which €114.3 million is to be undertaken by the public sector
the public sector share has grown to €323 million along with the constant delay of the opening date
The project’s 2010 completion date has long passed and now the new April 2014 date still seems unlikely
HochTief believed the steel roof structure was insufficient for the 3,800-tonne roof
an independent expert has confirmed the roof’s safety and hopes work will continue on
Hamburg plans to sue HochTief’s parent company Adamanta in three suites relating to the delays

The transition of the storied Hamburg Süd brand identity continues as Maersk works to consolidate the company while today’s news is that the last link to the family that owned the company for many years will come to an end
Philip Oetker announced on his LinkedIn feed that he will be leaving Hamburg Süd and Maersk by the end of July
His family has been investors and then owners of the shipping company for 87 of its 152-year history
“The world of shipping is magical in its ability to bring people together
I count myself fortunate to have been able to actively accompany this industry for almost two decades,” wrote Oetker in his farewell message
He quoted the storybook character “Winnie the Pooh” saying how hard it is to say goodbye
Oetker is part of the company’s senior management team with his position listed as Head of Hamburg Süd SAM Excellence
His focus was the commercial operations of the company which had continued to operate as a subsidiary of Maersk
Recent reports indicate Hamburg Süd operates a fleet of 132 containerships with a total TEU capacity of 646,500.
the company’s original focus was service between Hamburg and Brazil and the La Plata countries
August Oetker became involved and in 1936 his investment company acquired an initial 25 percent stake in the company
the company had to overcome the loss of its fleet and strict limitations imposed by the Allies on post-War German shipping
Oetker became the sole owner of Hamburg Süd
guiding the company’s restoration and eventual entry into container shipping
When Maersk announced the agreement to acquire the company in 2016
they reported Hamburg Süd was the world's seventh largest container shipping line and a leader in the North — South trades
Hamburg Süd had over $6.7 billion in revenues mostly from its container line activities
The shipping business generated more than half of the combined revenues of all the companies owned by Dr

A Mendocino County judge on Friday ordered the county to issue an after-the-fact permit to bury a county supervisor's wife on their rural property outside of Ukiah
"This is an important precedent in recognizing the Constitutional right to home burial in California," said Barry Vogel
attorney for Supervisor and former Congressman Dan Hamburg
Dan Hamburg sued the county when it refused to issue a home burial permit and death certificate for his wife
a county attorney said it did not object to the permit and Judge Cindee Mayfield issued the order for the documents
Hamburg could not be reached Friday for comment
Carrie Hamburg was quietly buried without a permit on their property following her death
The case triggered debate over human home burials
Only California and Washington have created regulations that effectively prohibit most home burials
California law gives each individual the right to direct the disposition of his or her remains
but the law also contains prohibitively expensive regulations some say are as onerous as creating a new cemetery
Hamburg's lawsuit contended that the law "creates a fundamental road block to any private-property burial by imposing an overbroad scheme of statutes and policies for which no compelling governmental interest exists or has been asserted."
It also said that California's prohibition of burials outside established cemeteries violates fundamental constitutional rights and questioned the harm of burying people at home when it's often done for dogs
State Cemetery and Funeral Bureau personnel have said state regulations are concerned with the future of parcels that might be sold and subdivided
causing undisclosed bodies to be unearthed
Vogel said Hamburg's case is the third he knows of in which a Mendocino County judge upheld home burials
who was buried behind his hardware store in Gualala
was for the burial of a 10 day old baby in the Anderson Valley
Vogel said he's been told there are a number of other people in the county who have been buried at home but he does not have the particulars
He said Hamburg is relieved and pleased by Mayfield's ruling and the county's withdrawal of its objection

19 (Bloomberg) — The port of Hamburg
Germany’s gateway to the Baltics and China
is adding jobs as a surge in sea freight boosted cargo handling to record levels in the first six months of the year
Europe’s third-largest commercial harbor handled 4.8 million standard containers
Port of Hamburg Marketing said in a statement yesterday
General cargo handling rose 8.8 percent to 51.6 million tons
“There are more workers employed in the handling terminals than in the boom year 2008,” said Ingo Egloff
“The port economy is specifically seeking and employing more workers.”
Freight volume is picking up as the shipping industry comes to grips with the overcapacity that triggered the worst price slump since containerization became global in the 1970s
the world’s biggest container-shipping line
today raised its full-year profit forecast as a reduction in costs boosts earnings
which handles about 75 percent of the containers at the German port

Turnover in Hamburg may reach 145 million tons this year
topping the 2008 record of 140 million tons
which climbed 7.4 percent to 2.5 million TEUs
are rising at a faster rate than exports as container traffic with China rose 13 percent to more than 1.4 million TEUs
Exports rose 6.3 percent to 2.3 million TEUs
That more than compensated for a decline in traffic between Hamburg and Russian ports
Traffic surged 33 percent with Africa and 13 percent with India
Russia is Hamburg’s biggest trading partner after China with the German port serving as a transfer hub
moving cargo from deep-sea ships from Asia to smaller feeder vessels destined for the Baltic Sea
Delays of 70 hours or more for ships carrying 6,000 TEUs to 7,000 TEUs and construction work continue to impede the traffic flow as more ultra-large container ships call at the port
located about 130 kilometers (80 miles) from the North Sea
has plans to deepen and widen the navigation channel on the River Elbe that currently prevents the new-generation vessels from leaving and entering the port fully loaded
it is not yet in recovery,” Oliver Drebing
an analyst at SRH Alster Research in Hamburg
The global fleet of container ships that can carry 14,000 TEUs or more is forecast to triple by the end of 2016
with the biggest carrying more than 18,000 TEUs
according to the June Global Port Tracker report
