Susceptibility Sample Clauses

The Susceptibility clause defines the extent to which a party, product, or process is vulnerable to certain risks, influences, or conditions. In practice, this clause may specify particular hazards, such as environmental factors or operational stresses, that could impact performance or safety, and outline the responsibilities for mitigating these vulnerabilities. Its core function is to clearly allocate responsibility and set expectations regarding the management of identified risks, thereby reducing uncertainty and potential disputes between parties.
Susceptibility. The inability of a plant variety to restrict the growth and development of a specified pest or pathogen.
Susceptibility. Susceptibility, understood as a measure of potential impact, in this case of the pelagic longline fishery, is expressed as the product of four conditional probabilities: availability (i.e. overlap of fishery effort with the distribution of the population/species), encounterability (i.e. the probability that a population/species could encounter fishing gear released within the geographic range of the species, in this case with the hooks baited), selectivity (probability that the fishing gear captures a population/species that encounters the gear; the hooks in this case) and post-capture mortality (▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 2010, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 2011). In the current study, for species that consume waste, bait and/or are captured by the fishery, we estimated the susceptibility to incidental capture considering the availability, encounterability or access to bait and probability of remaining captured or selectivity, and the probability of post-capture mortality, considered to be 1. This is because birds captured in the hooks or tangled in the line during setting are found during the hauling with a probability of mortality of 1 (or very close to 1). The attributes considered were multiplied as suggested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. (2011).

An acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall not mean that City has accepted, or the other party has been relieved of, responsibility for: (i) compliance with the Laws; (ii) the proper application of construction means or methods; or (iii) correcting any portion of the Project if it later is determined that any portion of the Project is inconsistent with the Final Documents and Drawings.

  • Subsurface Conditions Unless the Contract Documents stipulate specific quantities and units of rock or unsuitable soils, the Contractor shall assume material below the surface of the Earth to be earth and other material that can be removed by power shovel or similar equipment. Should conditions encountered below the surface of the ground be at variance to the number of unit requirements as indicated by drawings or specifications, and absent an agreed-upon unit price established prior to the bid by Addendum, or after contract execution by Change Order, the Contract Sum and/or time shall be adjusted as provided in the Contract Documents for changes in the work.

  • Compatibility 1. Any unresolved issue arising from a mutual agreement procedure case otherwise within the scope of the arbitration process provided for in this Article and Articles 25A to 25G shall not be submitted to arbitration if the issue falls within the scope of a case with respect to which an arbitration panel or similar body has previously been set up in accordance with a bilateral or multilateral convention that provides for mandatory binding arbitration of unresolved issues arising from a mutual agreement procedure case. 2. Nothing in this Article and Articles 25A to 25G shall affect the fulfilment of wider obligations with respect to the arbitration of unresolved issues arising in the context of a mutual agreement procedure resulting from other conventions to which the Contracting States are or will become parties.”.
