Release of Nutrients Sample Clauses

Release of Nutrients. An assessment of nutrient release during marine dredging for CMPs would be carried out based on the predicted SS elevation and the testing results of EPD sediment monitoring station SS3 and SS4. It is roughly estimated organic-nitrogen (Org-N) released into the water column would be on average staying in the model domain for less than 3 days given the very high current velocity (up to >1 m/s) around the Project site. In this period of time, the released Org-N is assumed to be mineralized into inorganic nitrogen under optimal condition. Based on typical mineralization rate of 0.1/day (taken from typical value adopted in the Update Model), the mass of Org-N can be calculated to be Exp(- 0.1×3) = 74%. This means about 26% of Org-N would turn into inorganic nitrogen in this period. In the calculation for release of nutrient, it is assumed that 26% of Org-N (calculated from TKN – NH3) concentrations in the sediments would be released to the water based on the previous estimation. The remaining ammonia-N is also assumed to be released into the water column as well. The maximum predicted SS concentrations at each WSR is multiplied by 26% of the maximum concentration of Org-N in sediment (mg/kg) plus 100% of ammonia nitrogen at the EPD sediment quality monitoring station SS3 and SS4. Based on the data published since 1986 (10), maximum TKN at these two stations is 960 mg/kg, while that for ammonia-N is 28 mg/kg. Accordingly, the maximum potential elevation in TIN (mg/L) per kg of sediment is calculated to be ((960 mg/kg – 28 mg/kg)×26% + 28 mg/kg×100%) = 270.32 mg/kg . While nitrate and nitrite may also be constituent of TIN in marine water, they are generally in negligible concentration in view of low electrochemical potential of marine sediment. The calculations of maximum elevation in TIN (from TKN) at WSRs are shown below: TIN (mg ⁄𝐿) = SS (mg DW⁄𝐿) × TIN Release Potential in Sediment (mg N⁄kg DW) × 10−6 (10) Data of TKN and ammonia-N between 1987-2020 are available from EPD routine sediment quality monitoring data. Unionized ammonia (UIA) is also a water quality parameter of concern listed under WQO. Ammonia nitrogen is the sum of ionized ammonia and UIA. Under normal conditions of Hong Kong waters, more than 90% of the ammonia nitrogen would be in ionized form. EPD marine water quality monitoring data at SM6 and SM7 (same locations as SS3 and SS4) from 1986 to 2020 indicated that ~ 7.2% of ammonia nitrogen exists as UIA on average.

  • Release of Unknown Claims Employee expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by any statute (including, but not limited to, Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California and analogous laws of other states), which limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims. Employee does so understanding and acknowledging the significance of the release of unknown claims and the waiver of statutory protection against a release of unknown claims (including, but not limited to, Section 1542). Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states as follows: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542 or of any similar statute, and for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the Company Releasees, Employee expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, without limitation, all Claims which are known and all Claims which Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee’s favor at the time of execution of this Agreement and that this Agreement contemplates the extinguishment of all such Claims.
