autumn


Explanation:
Does "spareprosjekt høsten 2008" appear consistently in the text without the Norwegian "i" or "på" before the word "høsten"? The reason I am asking is that this may be the name of the project, so that the sentence may thus translate to "the advertising tied to Savings Project Fall 2008 was initiated by XXX"

fall / autumn


Explanation:
"Fall" is the more common term for "Autumn" in the United States. So depending on whether you're translating in to UK or US English, you'd use either the one or the other.
