Billing Criteria for Complexes Sample Clauses

Billing Criteria for Complexes. An incident-specific cost apportionment agreement should be considered for allocating costs between fires involving multiple jurisdictions that are managed as an Incident Complex. Only costs that cannot be reasonably attributed to an individual fire will be assigned to the Complex code unless otherwise directed in an incident-specific cost apportionment agreement. Incident costs charged to the Complex will be allocated to individual fires based the percentage of effort involved in managing individual fires. The allocation method employed will be documented in the incident-specific cost apportionment agreement By default, when wildfires are assigned to a complex, costs for each fire within the complex will be apportioned as described in Clause 38.a above. By default, costs charged to the complex code will be allocated to individual fires prior to apportionment as follows: = + � ∗ Where: � (1 + 2 + 3 + ⋯ + ) = , ℎ ℎ = ℎ = ℎ =

Billing Criteria for Complexes. ‌ Unless otherwise directed in a Cost Share Agreement, when wildfires are assigned to a complex, costs for each fire within the complex will be apportioned as described above under AFS, DNR and USFS Incident Billing Criteria. Unless the following direction is superseded by a Cost Share Agreement approved by the AFS Manager, DNR Chief of Fire and Aviation and/or the USFS Director of Fire, Fuels and Aviation, complex costs that cannot be attributed to individual fires will be prorated. DNR and AFS agree that costs attributed to an individual fire equates to the effort involved in managing that fire. Therefore, it is assumed that complex costs that cannot be assigned to an individual fire can be apportioned as a percentage of effort/cost attributed to each fire. Every effort will be made to assign costs to individual fires that are appropriate to that fire. Only costs that cannot be reasonably attributed to an individual fire will be assigned to the complex.
