Transition to a Probabilistic Sample Clauses

Transition to a Probabilistic. Modeling Approach‌ C.03.1.1 and results of data collection activities at the WVDP and WNYNSC. Then, in consultation with the agencies, and considering input by other contractors (as requested by the agencies), the Contractor shall, as appropriate, transfer the existing component modules (groundwater flow, contaminant transport, contaminant release, human health impact, etc.) and associated input parameters from the 2010 FEIS deterministic PA into a probabilistic simulation computer code such as GoldSim™. The probabilistic modeling approach shall be sufficiently robust to support the development of a long-term probabilistic PA for use in the Phase 2 decision making process for the WVDP and the WNYNSC. The Contractor shall compare both the deterministic and probabilistic results to assess model equivalency and calibration, and using the probabilistic modeling approach, perform sensitivity and uncertainty analyses to help identify changes, if necessary, in the model structure, input parameter distribution, and the need for additional data, or the need for different modeling approaches. These sensitivity analyses will also be used to evaluate the relative importance of the model components (representations of natural and engineered systems and physical processes) to help determine whether specific components deserve additional study. The agencies expect this to be an iterative process whereby the results from site scientific data collection activities at the site could be used to incrementally improve the probabilistic modeling framework, if necessary. The Contractor will use the probabilistic platform to complete a thorough evaluation of the nature and magnitude of uncertainty in the analysis and determine the extent to which uncertainty may be reduced. The Contractor will provide recommendations to the agencies for near term direction of on-site data collection activities to reduce uncertainty or otherwise refine the analysis. The Contractor will incorporate new information from the studies within the probabilistic platform as appropriate. Through this process, the agencies will attempt to reach agreement on the technical basis of all modeling components. The result of this effort will be a working probabilistic model. Transition from a deterministic modeling approach to a probabilistic modeling approach is to be completed within 1 year following NTP and authorization by the agencies to proceed with work. The agencies expect the iterative process described a...

  • Reasonable Suspicion Testing All Employees Performing Safety-Sensitive Functions A. Reasonable suspicion testing for alcohol or controlled substances may be directed by the Employer for any employee performing safety-sensitive functions when there is reason to suspect that alcohol or controlled substance use may be adversely affecting the employee’s job performance or that the employee may present a danger to the physical safety of the employee or another. B. Specific objective grounds must be stated in writing that support the reasonable suspicion. Examples of specific objective grounds include but are not limited to: 1. Physical symptoms consistent with alcohol and/or controlled substance use; 2. Evidence or observation of alcohol or controlled substance use, possession, sale, or delivery; or 3. The occurrence of an accident(s) where a trained manager, supervisor or lead worker suspects alcohol or other controlled substance use may have been a factor.

  • BUSINESS CONTINUITY/DISASTER RECOVERY In the event of equipment failure, work stoppage, governmental action, communication disruption or other impossibility of performance beyond State Street’s control, State Street shall take reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions. Specifically, State Street shall implement reasonable procedures to prevent the loss of data and to recover from service interruptions caused by equipment failure or other circumstances with resumption of all substantial elements of services in a timeframe sufficient to meet business requirements. State Street shall enter into and shall maintain in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement with appropriate parties one or more agreements making reasonable provision for (i) periodic back-up of the computer files and data with respect to the Trusts; and (ii) emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to provide services under this Agreement. State Street shall test the ability to recover to alternate data processing equipment in accordance with State Street program standards, and provide a high level summary of business continuity test results to the Trusts upon request. State Street will remedy any material deficiencies in accordance with State Street program standards. Upon reasonable advance notice, and at no cost to State Street, the Trusts retain the right to review State Street’s business continuity, crisis management, disaster recovery, and third-party vendor management processes and programs (including discussions with the relevant subject matter experts and an on-site review of the production facilities used) related to delivery of the service no more frequently than an annual basis. Upon reasonable request, the State Street also shall discuss with senior management of the Trusts any business continuity/disaster recovery plan of the State Street and/or provide a high-level presentation summarizing such plan.”
