Ecological Resources Sample Clauses

Ecological Resources. The proposed transmission line from Habarana to Valachchenai is located in the central and eastern dry zone of the country. Agroecologically, the project area belongs to two zones, DL1 and DL2 dry lowlands, receives 1000-1500 and 1500-2000 mm annual rainfall, respectively, mainly during the inter monsoon and northeast monsoon seasons from October to February. The major soil types are Reddish Xxxxx Earth, Low Humic Gley soil, Non Calcic Xxxxx soil, Solodized Solonets and Regosols. Alluvial soils are found in the flood plains of Mahaweli River. The project area is found within the floristic region Dry and arid lowlands. The characteristic vegetation types are: tropical dry -mixed evergreen forests with Manilkara community, mixed community (Chloroxylon-Vitex-Berrya- Schleichera series), tropical thorn forests (Manilkara-Chloroxylon-Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx series), Damana and Villu grasslands, flood-plain wetlands, riverine and gallery forests. The existing and proposed transmission line cuts across several major habitat types such as degraded dry- mixed evergreen forest (e.g. in Minneriya National Park), scrublands including abandoned Chena (shifting cultivation) in different stages of succession, riverine forest especially on the banks of Mahaweli river and other streams, small patches of grasslands, villus, xxxxx xxxxxx, home gardens, forest plantations, road-side vegetation and a few human settlements. Infrastructure Facilities: Polonnaruwa – Batticaloa region has a network of roads that lead to most interior parts of the two districts, though the quality of minor roads is not very high. Household electrification rates in the North Central province that encompasses Polonnaruwa district and Eastern province that encompasses Batticaloa district are 60% and 64% respectively. Monthly electricity consumption per household varies from 50-60 kWh per month in the two districts. Industrial Activities: Industrial activities are relatively low in both districts. Over 90% of the industrial establishments in Polonnaruwa district are small-scale industries that employ about a total of 1500 persons. Batticaloa has 6 comparatively larger industries that employ about 2150 persons. Socio-economic Conditions: Only a minor part of the population has had no education at all (7%). About 70% of the population has had secondary education. Unemployment remains at 8% of the economically active population, which is somewhat lower than in most other regions in the rural dry zone. Over 85% o...

  • Electric Storage Resources Developer interconnecting an electric storage resource shall establish an operating range in Appendix C of its LGIA that specifies a minimum state of charge and a maximum state of charge between which the electric storage resource will be required to provide primary frequency response consistent with the conditions set forth in Articles 9.5.5, 9.5.5.1, 9.5.5.2, and 9.5.5.3 of this Agreement. Appendix C shall specify whether the operating range is static or dynamic, and shall consider (1) the expected magnitude of frequency deviations in the interconnection; (2) the expected duration that system frequency will remain outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (3) the expected incidence of frequency deviations outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (4) the physical capabilities of the electric storage resource; (5) operational limitations of the electric storage resources due to manufacturer specification; and (6) any other relevant factors agreed to by the NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner, and Developer. If the operating range is dynamic, then Appendix C must establish how frequently the operating range will be reevaluated and the factors that may be considered during its reevaluation. Developer’s electric storage resource is required to provide timely and sustained primary frequency response consistent with Article 9.5.5.2 of this Agreement when it is online and dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. This excludes circumstances when the electric storage resource is not dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or dispatched to receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. If Developer’s electric storage resource is charging at the time of a frequency deviation outside of its deadband parameter, it is to increase (for over-frequency deviations) or decrease (for under-frequency deviations) the rate at which it is charging in accordance with its droop parameter. Developer’s electric storage resource is not required to change from charging to discharging, or vice versa, unless the response necessitated by the droop and deadband settings requires it to do so and it is technically capable of making such a transition.
