Municipality of Groningen Sample Clauses

Municipality of Groningen. The municipality of Groningen in The Netherlands is divided into 10 departments, each of which has different tasks and responsibilities. In the realm of sustainability, the municipality is, among other things, responsible for implementation of local policies, waste collection, cleansing of the city and support of sustainable environmental projects. The municipality of Groningen is an organization that has to operate on EU and national sustainability laws and regulations and in a social and economic context. Most of their policies are built on EU and national sustainability regulations. However, the municipality also introduced policies that go beyond these regulations. For example, the municipality defined and introduced additional sustainability guidelines in the domain of travel, energy use, waste generation and purchase. Regarding sustainability, the municipality of Groningen has formulated a general goal of acting as sustainably as possible. In light of this goal the municipality has developed a fundamental vision to become CO2 neutral by 2035. This goal has been further specified in two main sub-goals: make sustainability a key criterion in all purchase decisions; and reduce direct and indirect energy consumption and carbon emissions. These goals concern the municipality as an organization, but also the different facilities the municipality is responsible for, such as sport facilities, public transport, and traffic control systems, to name a few. By transforming the municipality to a sustainable organisation, the municipality aims to function as a good example to the citizens and companies of Groningen. Among others, they have started reconstructing their own buildings to increase the energy-efficiency of these buildings. Additionally, they introduced a wide range of policies related to energy use, transport, waste generation and purchase to decrease CO2 emissions and increase sustainability.

  • Public Works Installation work which is considered public works is excluded from purchase under this Contract. Historically, the New York State Bureau of Public Works has maintained that installation, maintenance, and repair of equipment attached to any wall, ceiling, or floor, or affixed by hard wiring or plumbing is public work. In contrast, installation of a piece of equipment which is portable or a “plug-in” free-standing unit would not be considered public work. Thus, this Contract does not authorize installation where the equipment becomes a permanent part of the building structure, or is otherwise incorporated into the fabric of the building (e.g. installation on a wall, ceiling, or floor in a fixed location, or affixed by hard-wiring or plumbing).
