Purpose and Scope of Project. 3.1. The aim of this Project is to collect data on the housing circumstances of people in England as well as the condition and energy efficiency of their home for MHCLG, BEIS, other government departments and the wider research community to develop policy, and to produce National Statistics and other statistical/analytical outputs.
3.2. Data sharing for the purpose of this Project will enable BEIS to use the data of the EHS in combination with other sources or on their own to produce Fuel Poverty or other statistical outputs. That will improve the department’s evidence base significantly.
Purpose and Scope of Project. In accordance with, and subject to, the terms described in this Agreement, and as more fully described in Articles IV, V, VI, VII, the Parties agree to collaborate under the Research and Development Plan for the identification of CART Identified Compound(s) and Drug Product(s) for the ultimate
Purpose and Scope of Project. The goal of the project was to educate and involve stakeholders in the Upper Cache Creek watershed by engaging them in the monitoring and evaluation of existing and potential restoration sites within the watershed. A series of bioassessment workshops, along with ongoing field training, were tools used to educate citizens about the contributions they could make toward improving water quality. Stakeholders learned that they can contribute and play a major role in the health of their watershed. The results of volunteer monitoring efforts are displayed in the photos of the aquatic reference collection, along with a GIS map reflecting the sites where monitoring occurred during the term of the Agreement. These efforts have also been captured in a GIS database. An additional tool, developed to contribute to water quality in the region, was a list of nine Best Management Practices (BMPs). These practices will be part of a coordinated permitting program in the Upper Cache Creek and Upper Putah Creek watersheds, developed in partnership with the Natural Resources Conservation Service that will assist stakeholders with the implementation of restoration projects using specific BMPs. The local demonstration site in the Scotts Creek sub-watershed of the Upper Cache Creek watershed exhibits several of these BMPs.
Purpose and Scope of Project. The project area is one of the highest quality natural areas in the City of Roseville and surrounding areas. The section along Secret Ravine is part of a preserve mandated by the Army Corps of Engineers and maintained by the City of Roseville. The area has a very small maintenance budget that provides for only minimal maintenance activity. This portion of Secret Ravine is of prime importance to the annual salmon and steelhead spawning run since it contains and is adjacent to the most productive spawning areas in the Dry Creek watershed. About 80% of spawning occurs in Secret Ravine. Because of its natural beauty, varied terrain, and nearness to urban areas the area has long been used by Off Road Vehicles (ORVs) including all terrain vehicles, four wheel drive trucks and SUV’s, and dirt bikes. Numerous roads have been created by vehicles and hillsides have been denuded by vehicles practicing hill climbing. In one spot a dirt bike track was built by digging pits and piling dirt in hills. Several structural ramps were built. In large storms the creek overtops its banks and the roads become secondary channels resulting in erosion and sediment deposition in the stream channel. In areas where vehicles drive in the channel stream features have been destroyed resulting in wide shallow, xxxxx xxxxxxx. As the project area is a large spread out area, with numerous access points on both private and public land and it was very difficult to limit vehicle traffic and limiting access became the focus of this project since it didn’t make sense to re-vegetate impacted sites when vehicles would continue to access the area and destroy the improvements. Dry Creek Conservancy (DCC) mobilized an active group of residents from the China Garden Road area of Rocklin, members of the Granite Bay Flycasters and others to raise the issue with the Cities of Rocklin and Roseville. DCC initiated meetings with Xxxxxx Hospital and the City of Roseville to address access from hospital property. These discussions took place over a number of years and resulted in the installation of both a gate and boulder barriers. Both cities began to make efforts to place barriers to access where they could. In addition, both cities began to require installation of black iron fences in developments to prevent access to open space areas. In Rocklin fences were installed as lots were developed and before building occurred. The City of Rocklin placed a permanent barrier at the end of China Garden Road that com...
Purpose and Scope of Project. 1) The purpose of this collaboration between parties is to promote Kindergarten readiness, grade-level reading, and family engagement, by working as partners with the common goal of improving the efficacy of Spanish-speaking caregivers to feel equipped to promote young children’s early learning, social and emotional growth, and school readiness.
2) The program series uses narrative from the educational mini-series La Fuerza de Creer 2 (LFDC) created by Univision and with collaborations from Too Small To Fail, Vroom, and Literacy Partners. Literacy Partners has developed a facilitator toolkit with videos and guided conversations regarding critical child development and positive parenting.
3) In partnership with FGLRC, Literacy Partners is bringing La Fuerza de Familias Initiative to Latino communities in Florida with parent engagement workshops, partner training, and sharing accompanying curriculum.
4) The curriculum will include a facilitator’s guide and other resources so that early childhood education programs, libraries, family literacy programs, and others can use our content to implement a parent workshop series for Spanish-speaking parents on a “turn-key” basis.
5) The goal is to facilitate a pilot community of practice in Broward County, Florida by creating a supportive peer-learning environment with a pedagogical approach rooted in popular education and parent organizing rather than didactic formal instruction.
6) FGLRC will serve as an intermediary for the Literacy Partner s’ team with Florida stakeholders.
7) Florida Grade-Level Reading Campaign Director, Xxxx Xxxxx, will work closely with Literacy Partners’ National Director of Parent Education, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, and Literacy Partners staff and an advisory group of experts to implement the parent engagement tool locally.
8) The main focus of the partnership is to help activate this tool to Spanish-speaking parents/providers in partnership with Florida stakeholders including parents, community- based partners, education, and government liaisons.
9) This valuable relationship will ensure fidelity to the model and delivery of quality results with a keen eye towards issues impacting family engagement locally.
Purpose and Scope of Project. 2.1.1.1 The Project aims primarily at providing more convenient access and better supporting facilities for tourists visiting LYM with a view to enriching their experience.
2.1.1.2 The Project comprises the following works elements: Construction of a Public Landing Facility and Improvement Works to Existing Lookout Points and Viewing Platform (by CEDD) Construction of a promenade with a public landing facility (i.e. landing steps) capable of accommodating vessels with lengths up to 30m and draughts of about 3m; Construction of a breakwater; Dredging of seabed to provide sufficient water depth for navigation of vessels; and Improvement works for five existing lookout points and an existing viewing platform to improve their structural capacity. Development of a Waterfront Promenade and Related Improvement Works (by Architectural Services Department (ArchSD)) Construction of a carp-shaped platform and a pavilion with children’s play area; Beautification works for the promenade, five lookout points and an existing viewing platform to improve their visual appearance; and Streetscape improvement works.
2.1.1.3 The location, site boundary and general layout of the Project are shown in Figure 2.1.
Purpose and Scope of Project. The tasks that will be conducted as part of this agreement are outlined in the attached “Appendix A”. It is understood between the parties that any amendments to the scope of services and/or timetable may require renegotiation of fees and/or the termination date.
Purpose and Scope of Project. 4.1. The homelessness data linking project will support the work being carried out by the Homelessness Policy Team in the Department. By linking data sources on homelessness, MHCLG will be able to measure the effectiveness of a range of homelessness programmes and monitor the implementation and impact of the 2017 Homelessness Reduction Act (‘the 2017 Act’).
4.2. H-CLIC (Homelessness Case Level Information Collection) collects demographic data, for example, nationality and ethnic group; the circumstances leading to and following on from a household’s homelessness application being made; the actions taken by the local authority on each case; and all temporary accommodation placements.
4.3. In addition, MHCLG require local authorities to provide personal data on households, such as names and addresses. This data needs to be collected through H-CLIC so that MHCLG can link the data collected on applicant households to other data sources.
4.4. The purpose of the Project is to assess the longer term outcomes of those assisted with their homelessness, the success of other MHCLG intervention projects or to collect wider characteristics about those who are homeless to better assess why some interventions fail or succeed.
4.5. In requesting the personal and case level data provided through H-CLIC, MHCLG will create pseudonymised MHCLG identifiers that allow analysts to monitor the 2017 Act and to identify patterns within homelessness, by:
4.5.1. tracking cases across local authority boundaries and the country; and
4.5.2. following families/individuals in their journeys over time.
4.6. The exact method used to link the data is yet to be determined. This work will be carried out by the Data Team at MHCLG. All work carried out by the Data Team at MHCLG will use appropriate security measures and procedures to ensure the privacy of individuals is maintained. Any analysis of the H-CLIC data will be a carried out by the Homelessness Analysis Team using only on a pseudonymised version of the H-CLIC data.
4.7. MHCLG will retain a version of the pseudonymised linked dataset until 2028 and use analysis of these data to inform similar future policies/related policy questions.
4.8. The steps comprising the Project are set out in clause 6. This Agreement does not relate to any data sharing between the Parties not forming part of the Project.
Purpose and Scope of Project. 4.1. The aim of this Project is to evaluate the impact of the Expanded Programme against its objective of reducing crime, poor school attendance, anti-social behaviour, unemployment and domestic violence and abuse.
4.2. Data sharing for the purpose of the evaluation of the Programme will significantly improve the evidence base, and in particular improve understanding of whether this type of programme is effective in intervening with families with multiple problems.
4.3. The Analysis of the data will be useful for informing future policies of this kind (payment by results, social impact bonds, closer partnership working), in particular whether this is an effective way of engaging individuals/families with multiple problems in such initiatives. It will be used to provide information fed back to local authorities to help them understand the impact of the work they are doing with families locally.
4.4. In order to estimate what would have happened to troubled families if they had not been subject to the Programme, it is necessary to compare the outcomes of a similar group of families who did not receive support under the Programme. By linking individual level data, for families taking part in the Programme as well as a similar group of families not taking part, the evaluators will be able to look at history and outcomes before and after participation in the Programme, and at comparable points in time for the comparison group, to ensure that treatment and comparison groups are similar in terms of these and other characteristics.
4.5. This will be achieved by using personal data supplied to ONS by Local Authorities on individuals identified as part of a troubled family and individuals from a comparison group of families. The exact method used to link the data may vary during the course of the project, initially the linking to the National Administrative Datasets will be done by the individual Departments/health agencies however in the future it may be done by ONS. All work carried out by ONS will be in their Secure Linkage Facility and appropriate security measures and procedures will be put in place to ensure the privacy of individuals is maintained.
4.6. In requesting each data extract from Departments/health agency, ONS will supply a dataset containing personal data and a pseudo-anonymised unique identifier for each individual. The personal identifiers (name, date of birth and address) will be removed from the data extract created by each Department/health ag...
