Maintaining a soil pH greater than 6.5 is important to Brussels sprouts growth in this location, but in the field trial, the pre- planting lime application likely precluded this benefit of the biochar-only and mix soil amendments. Biochar particles are negatively charged and can improve nutrient retention and availability in soils with low cation exchange capacity (CEC), but the field trial soils had sufficient CEC levels, and this specific benefit of biochar was unlikely for this location. However, increased soil organic matter (SOM) may have been a mechanism for improved crop yield in some areas since this factor affects water-holding capacity and nutrient retention. Comparison of SOM and crop yields between the two test plots suggested that increased SOM levels due to the treatments in one test plot may have had a beneficial effect on crop yields, relative to the other test plot where SOM levels were not affected by treatments. Studies have also shown that the application of a biochar-only treatment can initially have a negative effect on bioavailability of nutrients in the soil. Biochar binds well to positively charged nutrients [e.g., calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), potassium (K), sodium (Na), and ammonium (NH4)] that are essential for plant growth. Over time, this effect can enable biochar to act as a slow-release fertilizer in the soil, but initially it can limit nutrient availability. In one of the test plots, the first year crop yield results were relatively low in biochar-only treated soils, and much higher in compost-only treated soils. This suggested that these nutrient dynamics occurred and that nutrient availability played a role in plant growth for these soils. However, poor crop yields from mix treated soils in the first year relative to the other treatments and control conditions were con...

  • Traffic Measurement and Billing over Interconnection Trunks 6.1 For billing purposes, each Party shall pass Calling Party Number (CPN) information on at least ninety-five percent (95%) of calls carried over the Interconnection Trunks. 6.1.1 As used in this Section 6, “Traffic Rate” means the applicable Reciprocal Compensation Traffic rate, Measured Internet Traffic rate, intrastate Switched Exchange Access Service rate, interstate Switched Exchange Access Service rate, or intrastate/interstate Tandem Transit Traffic rate, as provided in the Pricing Attachment, an applicable Tariff, or, for Measured Internet Traffic, the FCC Internet Order. 6.1.2 If the originating Party passes CPN on ninety-five percent (95%) or more of its calls, the receiving Party shall xxxx the originating Party the Traffic Rate applicable to each relevant minute of traffic for which CPN is passed. For any remaining (up to 5%) calls without CPN information, the receiving Party shall xxxx the originating Party for such traffic at the Traffic Rate applicable to each relevant minute of traffic, in direct proportion to the minutes of use of calls passed with CPN information. 6.1.3 If the originating Party passes CPN on less than ninety-five percent (95%) of its calls and the originating Party chooses to combine Reciprocal Compensation Traffic and Toll Traffic on the same trunk group, the receiving Party shall xxxx the higher of its interstate Switched Exchange Access Service rates or its intrastate Switched Exchange Access Services rates for all traffic that is passed without CPN, unless the Parties agree that other rates should apply to such traffic. 6.2 At such time as a receiving Party has the capability, on an automated basis, to use such CPN to classify traffic delivered over Interconnection Trunks by the other Party by Traffic Rate type (e.g., Reciprocal Compensation Traffic/Measured Internet Traffic, intrastate Switched Exchange Access Service, interstate Switched Exchange Access Service, or intrastate/interstate Tandem Transit Traffic), such receiving Party shall xxxx the originating Party the Traffic Rate applicable to each relevant minute of traffic for which CPN is passed. If the receiving Party lacks the capability, on an automated basis, to use CPN information on an automated basis to classify traffic delivered by the other Party by Traffic Rate type, the originating Party will supply Traffic Factor 1 and Traffic Factor
