Analytical Procedures. For each measurement parameter, reference the applicable standard analytical procedure(s) or provide a written description of the analytical procedure(s) to be used. Provide performance information for each analytical procedure in terms of accuracy, precision and detection limits. Method performance information should meet or exceed the Quality Assurance objectives identified in element number 5. For the sake of convenience, all or part of elements number 8, 9, 10, 11, and 13 may be incorporated into this element. The choice of when to reference a manual's test procedure and when to document a complete Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) can only be made on a case‑by‑case basis. It has been observed that few laboratories, external to the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP), follow exactly, all important details of a standard reference method. Other times standard reference methods provide or allow options (example ‑ the use of different gas chromatography columns for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) determinations). Reference to analytical methods in the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Publications, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or "Standard Methods" can be appropriate; however, required sample preparation procedures (filtration, digestion, etc.) also need to be referenced. For example, the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s “Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes" provides three (3) different test procedures for most metal determinations and at least four (4) sample preparation protocols for each metal. Each combination of metal determination and sample preparation exhibits different degrees of accuracy, precision, and sensitivity of measurement. Different quality control audits are used for each combination of metal determination and sample preparation. The exact combination used for each metal must be specified.
Analytical Procedures. The internal auditor should apply analytical procedures as the risk assessment procedures at the planning and overall review stages of the internal audit.

Analytical Procedures. Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) The weighed sample (generally 10 to 40 g) is irradiated epithermally for 20 minutes in a neutron flux with an approximate density of 1 x 1011 neutrons/cm2/second. Counting begins seven days after irradiation. The counting time is somewhat variable (6 to 11 minutes) and is matrix dependent. Counting is done on a germanium- lithium co-axial counter. The counting data is accumulated on a VAX computer and is subsequently converted to concentrations. Numerous international reference samples are irradiated with each batch of routine samples.Elements determined by INA analyses include: Na, Sc, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, As, Se, Br, Rb, Zr, Mo, Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, Cs, Ba, La, Ce, Xx, Eu, Tb, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, W, Ir, Au, Th, and U. The sample weight is also reported. Data for Zn, Se, Zr, Ag, Cd, Sn, Te, and Ir are not published because of inadequate detection limits and/or precision.

Analytical Procedures. The Contractor must obtain all testing data related to this work from a reliable laboratory. The Contractor must conduct routine inspections of all off-site laboratories (which are under the Contractor’s employment) in order to assess the internal quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) programs’ materials, equipment, and processes. All analytical services must be completed according to the Environmental Protection Agency's approved methods and other standards (National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)) required to ensure continued accreditation of the analytical laboratory. The Contractor must maintain a quality assurance and quality control program (QA/QC) that is approved by the County. The QA/QC program must include field, laboratory, and data components. The field QA/QC program must be designed in a way that prevents any compromise on sample quality or sample analyses during handling and transport. The laboratory QA/QC program must include analysis of blank, duplicate, and spiked samples to verify the precision and accuracy of the analyses. Additionally, compliance with all supplementary QA/QC procedures established by the accredited laboratory is required. Prior to their submission to the County, the results of the sample analyses shall be subject to review as part of the data QA/QC program. The Contractor must advise the appropriate County personnel on whether to accept or reject any suspicious or nonconforming results following a discussion with said personnel.

Analytical Procedures. Analytical procedures are used in the planning and final stages of the audit. In the planning phase, we use analytical procedures to identify unusual financial transactions and compare relationships to expected results. We compare current-year information to the prior years for balance sheet items, revenues, and expenditures. In the final stages of the audit, the financial statements are reviewed to identify expected relationships, such as comparing debt paid to expenditures recorded on governmental funds, transfers between funds, depreciation expense, etc. For all significant relationships identified, explanations are obtained as to why the situation occurred and additional audit procedures are applied to resolve any concerns.

  • Referral Procedures Section 1. For Local Unions now having a job referral system as contained in their Collective Bargaining Agreement, the Contractor agrees to utilize such system and it shall be used exclusively by such Contractor, except as it may be modified by this Article. Referrals shall not be affected by obligations of Union membership or the lack thereof. Where airport security clearance requirements apply to work to be performed, the Contractor shall inform the Union’s hiring hall dispatcher of those requirements when requesting workers. Section 2. In the event that Local Unions are unable to fill any request for employees within the time specified by the local CBAs the Contractor may employ applicants from any other available source. The Contractor shall inform the Union of the name and social security number of any applicants hired from other sources and shall refer the applicant to the Local Union for dispatch to the projects prior to the commencement of work. Section 3. There shall be no discrimination against any employee or applicant for employment because of his/her membership or non-membership in the union or based upon race, creed, color, sex, age or national origin, or any other legally protected class of such employee or applicant. Section 4. No employee covered by this Agreement shall be required to join any Union as a condition of being employed on the project; provided, however, that an employee who is a member of the referring union at the time of the referral shall maintain that membership while employed under the Agreement. All employees shall, however, be required to comply with the union security provision of the applicable Collective Bargaining Agreement, for the period during which they are performing on-site work, except as modified by this Agreement. The Contractor agrees to deduct union dues or representation fees, whichever is applicable, from the pay of any employee who executes a voluntary authorization for such deductions and to remit the dues to the Union or Council. Section 5. The parties agree that where a Contractor is not party to a current Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Union having jurisdiction over the affected work, the Contractor may request by name, and the Local will honor, referral of up to a maximum of five (5) persons per each contractor (“core” employees), provided that the Contractor first demonstrate that those persons possess the following qualifications: (1) Any license required by state or federal law for the project work to be performed; (2) Have worked a total of at least one thousand (1,000) hours in the construction craft during the prior three (3) years; (3) Were on the Contractor’s active payroll for at least sixty (60) out of the one hundred eighty (180) calendar days prior to the contract award; (4) Have the ability to perform the work safely. The Contractor may elect to hire its first “core” employee to be a xxxxxxx. After the contractor hires his first core employee, the Union will refer to such contractor one journeyman employee from the hiring hall out-of–work list for the affected trade or craft, then refer one of such Contractor’s “core” employees as a journeyman, and shall, alternate, one core employee and one employee from the out-of-work list, until such Contractor’s crew requirements are met or until such Contractor has hired five (5) “core” employees, whichever occurs first. Thereafter, all additional employees in the affected trade or craft shall be hired exclusively from the hiring hall out-of-work list(s). For the duration of the Contractor’s work the ratio of “core” employees to hiring hall referrals shall be maintained and when the Contractor’s workforce is reduced, employees shall be reduced in the same ratio as was applied in the initial hiring. All employees, core and union, shall be dispatched from the appropriate union. Trust benefits shall be paid on all employees, core and union. Section 6. Upon referral or dispatch from a Union, “turnaround” or refusal of any worker by the Contractors, requires written explanation from the Contractor that shall be communicated from the Prime Contractor to the Port and affected Union within 48 hours. Section 7. Individual seniority will not be recognized or applied to employees working on the project. This provision will not interfere with or supersede the use by individual Contractors of “call lists” maintained by such Contractor pursuant to addenda to the local Collective Bargaining Agreement between such Contractor and a Union signatory to this Agreement. Section 8. The selection of craft foremen and/or general foremen and the number of such foremen and/or general foremen required shall be entirely the responsibility of the Contractor. Craft foremen shall be designated working foremen at the request of the Contractor.

The program is to ensure that the Mortgage Loans are originated and serviced in accordance with Accepted Servicing Standards and the Underwriting Guidelines; guard against dishonest, fraudulent, or negligent acts; and guard against errors and omissions by officers, employees, or other authorized persons.

  • Testing Procedures Testing will be conducted by an outside certified Agency in such a way to ensure maximum accuracy and reliability by using the techniques, chain of custody procedures, equipment and laboratory facilities which have been approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. All employees notified of a positive controlled substance or alcohol test result may request an independent test of their split sample at the employee’s expense. If the test result is negative the Employer will reimburse the employee for the cost of the split sample test.

  • Additional Procedures Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrowers may withdraw a Dutch Auction by written notice to the Auction Manager no later than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time so long as no Qualifying Bids have been received by the Auction Manager at or prior to the time the Auction Manager receives such written notice from the Borrower Representative. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled; provided that a Term Loan Lender may modify a Return Bid at any time prior to the Expiration Time solely to reduce the Reply Price included in such Return Bid. However, a Dutch Auction shall become void if the Borrowers fail to satisfy one or more of the conditions to the purchase of Term Loans set forth in, or to otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(c) of the Second Lien Credit and Guaranty Agreement. The purchase price for all Term Loans purchased in a Dutch Auction shall be paid in cash by the Borrowers directly to the respective assigning Term Loan Lender on a settlement date as determined by the Auction Manager in consultation with the Borrowers (which shall be no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due), along with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) on the applicable Term Loans up to the settlement date. The Borrowers shall execute each applicable Auction Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of a Dutch Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrowers, and the Auction Manager’s determination will be conclusive, absent manifest error. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer Document, in consultation with the Borrowers, will be final and binding. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Borrowers, the Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates contained in the Offer Documents or otherwise or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information. The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such under a Dutch Auction shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9, 10.2 and 10.3 of the Second Lien Credit and Guaranty Agreement to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, each reference therein to the “Credit Documents” were a reference to the Offer Documents, the Auction Notice and Auction Assignment and Acceptance and each reference therein to the “Transactions” were a reference to the transactions contemplated hereby and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Dutch Auction.
