GRANTS FROM DISASTER RESPONSE FUNDS Sample Clauses

GRANTS FROM DISASTER RESPONSE FUNDS. Disaster Response Funds are defined in Policy 3.3. Disbursements from Disaster Response funds shall be made only in the furtherance of the scientific and educational purposes of the IEEE within the geographic area affected by the disaster. The disbursements shall be in the form of grants to academic institutions, charitable organizations, or government agencies. Types of activities that may be supported, include such things as: equipment, services, scholarships, classroom and laboratory materials or programs developed for retraining or other professional activities to help engineering and technology professionals in the geographic area affected. The IEEE Region Committee where the disaster occurred shall be delegated expenditure authority for the fund consistent with Policy 3.3.E. On behalf of the Foundation, the IEEE Region Committee shall:  Solicit and select the activities to be supported,  Issue formal grant agreements based on the Foundation approved template that restricts the use of the grants funds to the project that has been determined to further the scientific and educational purposes of IEEE and requires project reporting  Oversee the successful completion of the funded activities  Provide reports to the IEEE Foundation Board of Directors The IEEE OU must also comply with Policy 5.2.

  • Primary Frequency Response Developer shall ensure the primary frequency response capability of its Large Generating Facility by installing, maintaining, and operating a functioning governor or equivalent controls. The term “functioning governor or equivalent controls” as used herein shall mean the required hardware and/or software that provides frequency responsive real power control with the ability to sense changes in system frequency and autonomously adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in accordance with the droop and deadband parameters and in the direction needed to correct frequency deviations. Developer is required to install a governor or equivalent controls with the capability of operating: (1) with a maximum 5 percent droop ± 0.036 Hz deadband; or (2) in accordance with the relevant droop, deadband, and timely and sustained response settings from an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for equivalent or more stringent parameters. The droop characteristic shall be: (1) based on the nameplate capacity of the Large Generating Facility, and shall be linear in the range of frequencies between 59 and 61 Hz that are outside of the deadband parameter; or (2) based on an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. The deadband parameter shall be: the range of frequencies above and below nominal (60 Hz) in which the governor or equivalent controls is not expected to adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations. The deadband shall be implemented: (1) without a step to the droop curve, that is, once the frequency deviation exceeds the deadband parameter, the expected change in the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations shall start from zero and then increase (for under-frequency deviations) or decrease (for over-frequency deviations) linearly in proportion to the magnitude of the frequency deviation; or (2) in accordance with an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. Developer shall notify NYISO that the primary frequency response capability of the Large Generating Facility has been tested and confirmed during commissioning.
