Communication Costs. 11.1 The eligibility of costs related to communication activities that provide public information on this Administrative Agreement will be subject to Schedule C (Eligible and Ineligible Expenditures). Canada, British Columbia and UBCM agree that the measures contained in the Previous Agreements to create and xxxxxx a culture of asset management planning were effective in increasing the capacity of the diverse range of Ultimate Recipients in British Columbia and UBCM to enhance their community’s sustainability. Under the previous Agreement (2014-2024), local governments in BC demonstrated a commitment to improving asset management practices within their respective communities. As awareness and knowledge has grown, asset management practices and culture has matured. However, as noted in the 2022 Status of Asset Management in BC Report, while moving in the right direction, there remains significant gaps and priority areas where local governments need to improve if they are to realize the full benefits of asset management. Using the results from the 2022 Status of Asset Management in BC Report as a guide, the Oversight Committee will develop and approve Asset Management Commitments, over the duration of this Agreement for ultimate recipients, consistent with the Asset Management for Sustainable Service Delivery: A BC Framework. Asset Management BC will be asked to provide expertise and input where appropriate. All Ultimate Recipients will be required to meet the Asset Management Commitments. Asset Management Commitments may vary depending on whether the Ultimate Recipient is; a Local Government, a non–local government entity, Translink, and/or BC Transit. Asset Management Commitments will focus on strengthening asset management capacity over the term of the Agreement while continuing to recognize the varying capacities of Ultimate Recipients and the range of ongoing asset management activities. The Oversight Committee will consider Asset Management Commitments under the following areas; • Reporting on continuous improvement of Asset Management practices over the duration of the Agreement, including reporting through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs Local Government Data Entry (LGDE) System, • Development and implementation of Long-term Financial Plans • Ongoing Asset Management education and training, and • Implementing asset management performance measurement.
Communication Costs. These are costs for telephone, Internet, telegraph, data lines, websites, fax, email, etc., when related directly to the operation of the program element.
Communication Costs. For the communication costs, we determine the number of bits transmitted by both the SM and the SP. In all the considered schemes, the number of communication phases equals to three, except in [14], where there are four phases required. Note that we consider the 80-bit security level. Therefore, the length of the hash function and the nonces/random numbers equals to 160 bits. For the schemes of [9–11], the sizes of the groups G1 and G2, related to the pairing operation, are 320 and 512 bits, respectively. When sending an EC point, it is sufficient to send the x-coordinate together with a sign bit. In addition, we assume that the length of identity related information equals to 32 bits. The length of the PUF responses equals to 128 bits. As can be concluded from Table 4, our scheme, together with [12], requires the smallest number of transmitted bits to be sent over the channel, compared to the other schemes. Consequently, in our scheme messages X0, X0 from SP contain 161 and 160 bits respectively, resulting in a total message size sent by the SP equal to 321. The message M1 consists of 1 hash (160 bit), 1 EC point (161 bit) and 1 ciphertext message (192 bits) containing the identity and an EC point. Therefore, the SM sends a message of size 511 to the SP.

Communication Costs. ETRX will bear a reasonable degree of communications costs in connection with its obligations hereunder. Should ETRX’s proven costs in communicating with HR exceed * in any given month, then HR agrees to pay any amount in excess of this * limit unless such amount is escalated to the JOC in accordance with the escalation provisions herein.
Communication Costs. Tips and alcohol are not reimbursable.
Communication Costs. Communication costs such as cell phones, pagers, internet access, local calls, telephone equipment purchases and/or installation and repairs, and data communications are considered routine and normal business costs and as such shouldbe recovered through the F&A process. This treatment of such costs allows for consistent recovery through the F&A rate mechanism and allows Tech to satisfy federal requirements that costs incurred for the same purpose in like circumstances are treated consistently as either a direct or an F&A cost. Long distance calls incurred through the ITC telecommunications system are allowable direct charges provided the calls can be directly assigned to a specific project and properly supported. Consistent with University policy, employees may receive, in the case of cell phone usage, a mobile telephone allowance for the business portion of a personal cell or personal digital assistant device. The allowance can be charged to departmental FUND (where approved by the department’s chair), University discretionary FUND or the PI’s discretionary FUND. The direct charging of communication costs to a sponsored agreement can only occur under exceptional circumstances. For example, network charges where a dedicated line is required for large data transmissions. Or in cases of a cell phone allowance, direct charging may be justifiable when the expense is related specifically to the technical substance of a project or there is an unusually high level of expense because of the nature of the activity. However, to be allowable (for agency reimbursement purposes) communication costs must have been specifically budgeted and included in the project proposal approved by the awarding agency.
Communication Costs. Orbitz shall be solely responsible for the cost of dedicated leased data lines, dial up lines and all related costs of other alternative methods of communication incurred in connection with the Interface. Each party shall bear its own costs for modems purchased or leased as necessary for communications between Orbitz's Services and Pegasus' Online Distribution Database and/or Reservation Function.
Communication Costs. The Company shall compensate the Director for all communication costs, such as subscription and call charges of telephone, fax and e-mail lines at the home address of the Director and fixed and variable costs of a mobile telephone or digital connection, with due understanding that the Director shall owe that which is charged to the Director by virtue of valid tax laws with regard to communication costs.
Communication Costs. The costs of the necessary communication with the Organiser shall be borne by the Organiser. The Traveller should, as far as possible, limit the costs by, among other things, using the Internet, WhatsApp and e-mail.
Communication Costs. LICENSEE shall be responsible for all communication costs from Licensee's facility to the designated Database server location, including, without limitation, all equipment and telephone costs and any connection charges thereto.
