Benchmark Values Sample Clauses

Benchmark Values. This analysis compared PAH and metal concentrations from Port Xxxxxx samples to threshold levels obtained from the literature. The Port data were compiled from effluent, sediment, and mussel tissue samples collected in conjunction with the Ballast Water Treatment Plant (BWTP) permit (APSC, 1995), the Alyeska Environmental Monitoring Program (Xxxxx and Shaw, 1993, 1994b, 1995, 1996), the LTEMP Monitoring Program (Kinnetics Laboratories Inc., 1995, 1996) and U.S. ACE sampling in the Small Boat Harbor (U.S. ACE, 1995) data. Benchmark values were obtained from the U.S. EPA (1996) program for developing Ecotox Thresholds, benchmark determinations for freshwater (Xxxxx, 1996), sediment effects levels (Xxxx and Xxxxxx, 1995), and wildlife threshold levels (Xxxxxxx et al., 1995). The purpose of each study was to synthesize effects-based data into useful criteria for determining at what levels adverse effects occur. We compared benchmark values from the references listed above to PAH and metal concentrations in the BWTP effluent, PAH concentrations in sediments from various locations in the Port, and benzo[a]pyrene concentrations in mussels collected from several beaches. The number of times sample concentrations exceeded benchmark values was tallied and compared between different sub-areas. These results were compared to the ranks from the conceptual model. The results of this analysis can be found in Section 7.1.

Benchmark Values. Xxxxxx ANGB must monitor and report analytical results for the parameters listed on Part A on Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) for outfall 003. The benchmark values listed below are not effluent limitations, and exceedances do not constitute violations. However, if Xxxxxx ANGB’s sampling demonstrates exceedances of benchmark values for two consecutive monitoring periods, Xxxxxx ANGB shall submit a corrective action plan within 90 days of the end of the monitoring period triggering the plan. Parameters Monitoring Requirements Benchmark values Total Suspended Solids (TSS) (mg/L) 1 / 6 months Grab 100 Oil and Grease (mg/L) 1 / 6 months Grab 30 Footnote (1) This is the minimum number of sampling events required. Dischargers are encouraged to perform more than the minimum number of sampling events.

  • Measuring EPP parameters Every 5 minutes, EPP probes will select one “IP address” of the EPP servers of the TLD being monitored and make an “EPP test”; every time they should alternate between the 3 different types of commands and between the commands inside each category. If an “EPP test” result is undefined/unanswered, the EPP service will be considered as unavailable from that probe until it is time to make a new test.

  • Measuring DNS parameters Every minute, every DNS probe will make an UDP or TCP “DNS test” to each of the public-­‐DNS registered “IP addresses” of the name servers of the domain name being monitored. If a “DNS test” result is undefined/unanswered, the tested IP will be considered unavailable from that probe until it is time to make a new test.

  • Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification The interest rate on a Loan denominated in dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.14(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

  • Economic Price Adjustment is the adjustment to the Aircraft Basic Price (Base Airframe, Engine and Special Features) as calculated pursuant to Exhibit D.

  • Performance Adjustment Rate Except as otherwise provided in sub-paragraph (e) of this paragraph 3, the Performance Adjustment Rate is 0.02% for each percentage point (the performance of the Portfolio and the Index each being calculated to the nearest .01%) that the Portfolio's investment performance for the performance period was better or worse than the record of the Index as then constituted. The maximum performance adjustment rate is 0.20%. For purposes of calculating the performance adjustment of the portfolio, the portfolio's investment performance will be based on the performance of the retail class. The performance period will commence with the first day of the first full month following the retail class's commencement of operations. During the first eleven months of the performance period for the retail class, there will be no performance adjustment. Starting with the twelfth month of the performance period, the performance adjustment will take effect. Following the twelfth month a new month will be added to the performance period until the performance period equals 36 months. Thereafter the performance period will consist of the current month plus the previous 35 months. The Portfolio's investment performance will be measured by comparing (i) the opening net asset value of one share of the retail class of the Portfolio on the first business day of the performance period with (ii) the closing net asset value of one share of the retail class of the Portfolio as of the last business day of such period. In computing the investment performance of the retail class of the Portfolio and the investment record of the Index, distributions of realized capital gains, the value of capital gains taxes per share paid or payable on undistributed realized long-term capital gains accumulated to the end of such period and dividends paid out of investment income on the part of the Portfolio, and all cash distributions of the securities included in the Index, will be treated as reinvested in accordance with Rule 205-1 or any other applicable rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as the same from time to time may be amended.
