The issue of cohabitation between hazardous industries and surrounding communities generates a range of multifaceted challenges for risk governance. It involves a number of actors and decision-making processes as well as foundational questions related to the understanding and acceptability of risk. This chapter explores how these challenges are approached in Norway, focusing in particular on the role of regulatory regimes. The safety regime established for major-accident industries is outlined and selected case studies are included to illustrate the range and variety of challenges encountered in risk governance processes. These include procedural and epistemic as well as normative issues which require institutional frameworks that are constructed to balance different concerns.
