Principles Guiding Future Wildlife Mitigation Projects. In order to advance mitigation for the remaining 16,880 acres, the Parties shall adhere to the following key principles, and shall work collaboratively in their implementation. 1. The Parties shall operate within the Council’s review and recommendation process under the Northwest Power Act. All new wildlife mitigation projects in the Willamette will be covered by an ODFW umbrella project called “Willamette Wildlife Mitigation.” Independent science review will be provided at the programmatic level on the project selection criteria, as discussed below, but not for individual acquisition or restoration projects. 2. ODFW shall work with Tribes and regional stakeholders (including other federal and Oregon state agencies, local governments, and non-governmental organizations) in developing project selection criteria, setting priorities, and implementing future Willamette wildlife mitigation projects. Project selection criteria will address targeted wildlife species and may address other species and resources of interest to Tribes and regional stakeholders that would benefit from the wildlife projects, (e.g., fish species, whether anadromous or resident, including lamprey, as well as other resources of interest, such as amphibians, insects, or culturally important plants, etc). ODFW will work with affected Tribes on a government-to-government basis to ensure a collaborative approach that reflects each Tribe’s unique interests in Willamette wildlife mitigation. 3. ODFW shall openly develop a new process or adapt an existing one for evaluating and prioritizing all Willamette wildlife mitigation projects. Any entity, including Tribes and regional stakeholders, may submit proposed projects. This process will include regional coordination, consideration of cost effectiveness, and public transparency. 4. The project selection criteria must expressly consider funding from sources other than those provided by BPA under this Agreement. ODFW shall ensure that project proposals that include substantial contributions from other entities (and maximize the acreage concurred in by ODFW) have those contributions reflected positively in the final project rankings. In addition, the Parties support using ecosystem services markets as specified in ORS 468.581-468.587 (including the potential sale of credits in those markets to reduce the costs attributable to this Agreement) so long as the conservation goals of this Agreement remain paramount. 5. The project selection criteria devel...

  • Aggravating and Mitigating Factors The penalties in this matter were determined in consideration of all relevant circumstances, including statutory factors as described in CARB’s Enforcement Policy. CARB considered whether the violator came into compliance quickly and cooperated with the investigation; the extent of harm to public health, safety and welfare; nature and persistence of the violation, including the magnitude of the excess emissions; compliance history; preventative efforts taken; innovative nature and the magnitude of the effort required to comply, and the accuracy, reproducibility, and repeatability of the available test methods; efforts to attain, or provide for, compliance prior to violation; action taken to mitigate the violation; financial burden to the violator; and voluntary disclosure. The penalties are set at levels sufficient to deter violations, to remove any economic benefit or unfair advantage from noncompliance, to obtain swift compliance, and the potential costs, risks, and uncertainty associated with litigation. Penalties in future cases might be smaller or larger depending on the unique circumstances of the case.

To provide equally effective alternate access, alternates are not required to produce the identical result or level of achievement for persons with and without disabilities, but must afford persons with disabilities equal opportunity to obtain the same result, to gain the same benefit, or to reach the same level of achievement, in the most integrated setting appropriate to the person’s needs. b) The Plan for New Content must include sufficient quality assurance procedures, backed by adequate personnel and financial resources, for full implementation. This provision also applies to the School’s online content and functionality developed by, maintained by, or offered through a third-party vendor or by using open sources. c) Within thirty (30) days of receiving OCR’s approval of the Plan for New Content, the School will officially adopt, and fully implement the amended policies and procedures.
