POTENTIAL FOR CUMULATIVE IMPACTS Sample Clauses

POTENTIAL FOR CUMULATIVE IMPACTS. Cumulative impacts are defined by the U.S. Council on Environmental Quality as impacts on the environment that result from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions. The ACOBAR Experiment took place over two years, from 2010 to 2012. Prior to the ACOBAR Experiment, the Fram Strait Tomography Experiment, part of the DAMOCLES Project, installed a prototype acoustic tomography system in Fram Strait. One source and one receiver were deployed in August 2008 for a duration of one year. The source transmitted 60-sec signals from 205 to 305 Hz every three hours (xxxx://xxxxxx.xxxxx.xx/). NERSC has just been awarded a research grant from the Norwegian government for the UNDER ICE project, which is part of a larger Eurpoean Union funded research initiative called AROMOS. The tomography portion of the research project will replicate the work done in the ACOBAR Experiment with three WRC sources installed for two years (2014 to 2016) in a triangular arrangement. The east and westernmost sources will be deployed in approximately the same area as during ACOBAR (Moorings A and B), however, the northernmost source will be north of the ACOBAR Mooring C, closer to the Gakkel Ridge. It is not anticipated that these small research projects with deep active acoustic sources transmitting very infrequently will combine to cause cumulative impacts. During the past few years, two pilot studies measuring the ambient noise in Arctic environments have been conducted. One study deployed two passive acoustic recorders, one in the Fram Strait and one in the Chukchi Sea, from autumn 2008 to autumn 2009 to compare the Atlantic and Pacific Arctic acoustic habitats, respectively (Xxxxx et al. 2012). Airgun signals were detected year-round in Fram Strait, including every day from July to September, 80 to 95% of days per month from March to June, and 30 to 65% of days per month from October to February. With only a single recorder, distances to the seismic surveys could not be calculated, but the signals appeared to be from sources located at great distances (Xxxxx et al. 2012). The second study deployed two autonomous receivers, one in the Fram Strait and one in the Greenland Sea, from June 2009 through June 2010 (Xxxxxx et al. 2012). Ambient noise levels for the frequency band of 15 to 840 Hz were calculated. During the summer months (May to September), airgun signals were detected almost every hour per month at both dep...

  • Termination Due to Force Majeure Event If the period of Force Majeure continues or is in the reasonable judgment of the Parties likely to continue beyond a period of 120 (one hundred and twenty) Days, the Parties may mutually decide to terminate this Agreement or continue this Agreement on mutually agreed revised terms. If the Parties are unable to reach an agreement in this regard, the Affected Party shall after the expiry of the said period of 120 (one hundred and twenty ) Days be entitled to terminate the Agreement in which event, the provisions of Articles 16 and 17 shall, to the extent expressly made applicable, apply.

  • Offtake constraints due to Backdown The Solar Power Developer and Buying Entity shall follow the forecasting and scheduling process as per the regulations in this regard by the Appropriate Commission. The Government of India, as per Clause 5.2(u) of the Indian Electricity Grid Code (IEGC), encourages a status of “must-run” to solar power projects. Accordingly, no solar power plant, duly commissioned, should be directed to back down by a Discom/ Load Dispatch Centre (LDC). In the eventuality of backdown, including backdown on account of non-dispatch of power due to non-compliance with “Order No. 23/22/2019- R&R dated 28.06.2019 of Ministry of Power regarding Opening and maintaining of adequate Letter of Credit (LC) as Payment Security Mechanism under Power Purchase Agreements by Distribution Licensees” and any clarifications or amendment thereto, except for the cases where the Backdown is on account of events like consideration of grid security or safety of any equipment or personnel or other such conditions, subject to the submission of documentary evidences from the competent authority, the SPD shall be eligible for a minimum generation compensation, from Buying Entity, restricted to the following and there shall be no other claim, directly or indirectly against SECI: Duration of Backdown Provision for Generation Compensation Hours of Backdown during a monthly billing cycle. Generation Compensation = 100% of [(Average Generation per hour during the month) X (number of backdown hours during the month)] X PPA tariff Where, Average Generation per hour during the month (kWh) = Total generation in the month (kWh) ÷ Total hours of generation in the month
