Tributary Assessment Program Sample Clauses

The Tributary Assessment Program clause establishes a framework for evaluating and monitoring the condition and performance of tributary water sources within a specified area. Typically, this clause outlines the procedures for regular assessments, data collection, and reporting on water quality, flow rates, or ecological health of tributaries that feed into a main water body. By setting clear standards and responsibilities for assessment, the clause ensures ongoing oversight and helps identify potential issues early, thereby supporting effective water resource management and compliance with environmental regulations.
Tributary Assessment Program. The District shall provide support for a Tributary Assessment Program separate from the Plan Species Account. The Tributary Assessment Program will be utilized to monitor and evaluate the relative performance of tributary enhancement projects approved by the Tributary Committee and directly funded by the initial contribution to the Plan Species Account (See Section 7.4.1). It is not the intent of the Tributary Assessment Program to measure whether the Plan Species Account has provided a 2% increase in survival for Plan Species. Instead, the program has been established to ensure that the dollars allocated to the Plan Species Account are utilized in an effective and efficient manner. The District shall develop, in coordination with and subject to approval by the Tributary Committee, the measurement protocols for the Tributary Assessment Program. The Tributary Committee may choose to either evaluate the relative merits of each individual tributary enhancement project or it may choose to evaluate an aggregation of projects provided that the total cost associated with the Tributary Assessment Program does not exceed $200,000 (not subject to inflation adjustment). Example 1. Adult steelhead and spring chinook survival measured at 99% but no other adult Permit Species have been studied. Tributary funding would remain at 2% for sockeye and summer/fall chinook but would be reduced to 1% based upon the results from the adult steelhead and spring chinook survival studies. Annual Contributions to the Plan Species Account would reduce the prospective payments from a full 8/8 contribution to a 6/8 contribution.
