Purpose and Background. The purpose of this Agreement is to provide the Executive with certain cash severance payments and welfare benefits in the event that the Executive becomes unemployed as a result of a change in control of the Division and, thus, has no employment with the Company or its affiliates, or with the Person that acquires the Division or that Person's affiliates. This Agreement is intended to provide the Executive with no payments or benefits in the event that the Executive remains employed by the Company or any of its affiliates, or becomes employed by the Person that acquires the Division or such Person's affiliates. On the date of this Agreement, the Executive is employed by either the Company or by one of the Company's affiliates that is involved in the operations of the Division. The provisions of this Agreement that provide for the Company to have rights or obligations or to take actions with respect to the Executive's employment shall be interpreted to mean that either the Company or the Company's affiliate that actually employs the Executive shall have such rights and obligations and may take such actions. Generally, this Agreement contemplates that, if the Executive is employed by the Company or any of its affiliates with respect to the Division immediately prior to the occurrence of a change in control of the Division, a two-year trigger period will begin to run. During such two-year period, if the Executive becomes unemployed under certain specified circumstances, then either the Company or the Person that acquired the Division will provide the Executive with the payments and benefits required by this Agreement. Thus, two events must happen before the Executive is entitled to payments or benefits under this Agreement: (i) there must have actually occurred a change in control of the Division or the Company, and (ii) the Executive's employment must be terminated with respect to the Company and its affiliates without the Executive being offered employment with the Person that acquires the Division or any of its affiliates. This Agreement is intended to provide the Executive with financial assistance in the event that the Executive becomes unemployed, but it is not intended to provide the Executive with a bonus. By way of example, assume that the Executive is presently employed by Fortis Benefits Insurance Company, which is an affiliate of the Company, with respect to the Fortis Family Division, which is indirectly controlled by the Company.

Purpose and Background. The purpose of this attachment to the Rocky Flats Legacy Management Agreement (RFLMA) is to specify the legacy management requirements that will ensure the response action selected and approved in the final Corrective Action Decision and Record of Decision (CAD/ROD) for the Central Operable Unit (OU) remains protective of human health and the environment. The remedy specified in the final CAD/ROD is supported by a Comprehensive Risk Assessment, which is based on a specific land use. The remedy, therefore, relies on certain physical and institutional controls, which must be maintained to ensure long-term protectiveness. The remedy also includes engineered features – landfills and water treatment systems – which must be maintained to remain protective. Reduced levels of residual soil contamination remain at the site and may continue to affect surface water. Contaminated groundwater also exists at the site and may impact surface water quality. Continued routine monitoring for groundwater and surface water is therefore required. Air, soil, and ecological receptors have been extensively monitored for many years and routine monitoring is no longer required. Legacy management requirements described in this attachment are intended to address the requirements of the following statutes: • Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); • Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) including applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs); and • Colorado Hazardous Waste Act (CHWA). Modifications to this attachment will occur in accordance with the provisions of Part 10 of RFLMA.
Purpose and Background. The Department of Environmental Conservation is responsible for the management of more than four million acres of state land and conservation easements and numerous facilities under its jurisdiction. From forests and lakes to parks and campgrounds, it is an enormous undertaking to preserve and protect such vast and diverse environmental resources. The Department’s ability to adequately maintain these resources is greatly enhanced with the help of many individuals and groups that volunteer their time and talent to help preserve and enhance these resources for all to enjoy. Pursuant to the powers set forth in ECL § 3-0301, the Department has made use of volunteers for a wide range of activities. Such activities may involve remediating vandalism, picking up litter and trash, establishing or maintaining trails, providing interpretive services for school groups and other citizens, managing fish and wildlife habitats, or otherwise providing positive benefits to state land and facilities. This Policy establishes the procedures the Department will use to consider stewardship proposals made by individuals and groups through the Program Application process. At its sole discretion, the Department may provide the assistance of personnel, facilities and supplies in support of the activities described in the subsequent Agreement. Consistent with all other laws and regulations, stewardship activities may be recognized by the placement of appropriate signs on or near the designated stewardship area. Other forms of recognition, including but not limited to certificates, press releases, and newsletters may be provided as the Department deems appropriate.
