Methods for setting the Reference Condition (E1) value of a metric Sample Clauses

Methods for setting the Reference Condition (E1) value of a metric. ‌‌ Various methods of setting the Reference Condition (E1) value of a particular metric for a particular site/waterbody or environmental-similar group of sites/waterbodies can be used depending the data available. Obviously the reference condition or high quality sites used to determine the E1 values should be sampled in the same way as the samples for the sites being assessed. The following are several possible options in roughly decreasing order of preference. i) If a suitable RIVPACS-type predictive model involving an adequate number of environmental similar reference condition sites is available, then the E1 values are best based on RIVPACS-type site- and season- specific predictions of the expected fauna and metric values. ii) In the absence of a RIVPACS model, if a suitable number of reference condition sites of an environmentally-similar type are available, the E1 values can be based on the mean or median metric value for these sites. iii) If a suitable number of an environmentally-similar type of ‘high’ quality sites (of uncertain reference condition) are available, the E1 values can be based on the mean, median or perhaps an upper percentile (75% or 90%) value of the metric for these sites. iv) If only a very small number of an environmentally-similar type of ‘high’ quality sites (of uncertain reference condition) are available, then the E1 values cannot be reliable estimated and might be based using the maximum of the few values available. However, the maximum value is not a stable measure and increases with the number of sites on which it is based. v) If no ‘reference condition’ or ‘high’ status sites are available then, some form of hind- casting or extrapolation to reference conditions will be necessary to provide appropriate values of E1.

  • Reallocation to a Class with a Lower Salary Range Maximum 1. If the employee meets the skills and abilities requirements of the position and chooses to remain in the reallocated position, the employee retains the existing appointment status and has the right to be placed on the Employer’s internal layoff list for the classification occupied prior to the reallocation. 2.

  • Determination of Gross-Up Payment Subject to sub-paragraph (c) below, all determinations required to be made under this Section 6, including whether a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, shall be made by the firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company to audit its financial statements for the year immediately preceding the Change in Control (the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive within 30 days after the date of the Executive's termination of employment. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group affecting the Change of Control, the Executive may appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required under this Section 6 (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the "Accounting Firm"). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with the work it performs pursuant to this Section 6 shall be promptly paid by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within 5 days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall furnish the Executive with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on the Executive's applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"). In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to sub-paragraph (c) below, and the Executive is thereafter required to make a payment of Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall promptly determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within 5 days after such determination.

In making a determination under clauses (A) or (B) above, if on the Determination Date, five trading days had not passed since the closing of the Company’s initial public offering of its Common Stock (“IPO”), then the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be the average closing prices or closing bid prices, as applicable, for the shorter period beginning on and including the date of the IPO and ending on the trading day prior to the Determination Date (or if such period includes only one trading day, the closing price or closing bid price, as applicable, for such trading day).
