Wage Contingency. If, during the term of this Agreement, either State or Federal participation levels are reduced, State caps their funding participation in a Provider Wage lower than wages paid under this Agreement, or either the State or federal sharing formula is modified in any manner that would result in an increased cost to the County to maintain the wage and/or benefit level described in this Agreement, then the County’s overall contribution will not increase, rather the IHSS provider wages will be adjusted to reflect the reduced State and/or Federal contribution. The Riverside County PA shall make every effort to provide to the Union a written description of any adjustments to be made pursuant to this section at least fourteen calendar (14) days prior to the effective date of such adjustments. Upon receipt of a written request from the Union to do so, the Riverside County PA will meet and confer regarding the impact of the above-described loss of funding or funding participation wage cap. In no case will the County, be required to increase its contribution level toward the affected benefit and/or wages, as applicable.
Wage Contingency. If, during the term of this Agreement, either state or federal participation levels are reduced or, either the state or federal sharing formula is modified in any manner that would result in an increased cost to the County and/or the Public Authority, wages may be reduced by an amount necessary to keep the total cost to the County and/or the Public Authority the same as such cost existed on the day prior to the effective date of such reduction or modification. The Public Authority shall provide to the Union a detailed written description of any proposed adjustments to be made pursuant to Section 7, Wages, thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such adjustments. Upon receipt of a written request from the Union to do so, the Public Authority will meet and confer to discuss the impact of the above-described loss of funding, but in no case shall the Public Authority be required to increase its contribution toward wages.

Wage Contingency. A. If either state or federal participation levels are reduced or, either the state or federal sharing formula is modified in any manner that would result in an increased cost to the Placer County Public Authority to maintain the wage levels described in this MOU, wages will be reduced by an amount necessary to keep the total percentage to the Public Authority no more than the percentage that existed on the day prior to the effective date of such reduction or modification, but in no event shall the hourly wage exceed the maximum wage rate for which State participation is provided. It is expressly understood that the implementation of this Section could result in a wage level that is below the wage described in Section 6.1.A. of this Agreement.
B. If, during the term of this Agreement, either state or federal participation levels are increased or, either the state or federal sharing formula is modified in any manner that would result in a reduced cost to the Placer County Public Authority to maintain the wage and benefit levels described in this MOU or would provide additional funds at no additional cost to the County that could be used for program or benefit enhancements, the parties shall re-open negotiations regarding the issue of wages and benefits only.
C. The Public Authority shall provide to the Union a detailed written description of any adjustments to be made pursuant to this section at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any adjustments made pursuant to the various provisions of Section 6.2.

Upon receipt of a written request from the Union to do so, the Public authority will meet and confer to discuss the impact of the above- described loss of funding, but in no case shall the Public Authority be required to increase its contribution toward wages. If, the state authorizes an increase in participation that exceeds $12.10 per hour, the union may request in writing to meet and confer on the subject of wages only, at a time which is mutually agreeable to both parties.
Wage Contingency. If the State or Federal participation levels are reduced, or the State or Federal participation levels change resulting in an increase to the Public Authority's/County's MOE, or the State or Federal sharing formula is modified in any way that would result in increased cost to the Public Authority or County to maintain the wage level and/or wage supplement described in this MOU, or the State and/or Federal government limits, caps or reduces its participation in wages, wage supplements, and/or health benefits, or takes any other actions that increase the Public Authority's or the County's share of funding and/or costs for Provider compensation, including but not limited to in any ways unforeseen at the time this Agreement is reached, then the County/Public Authority shall have the right to reopen this MOU, and upon written notice, the Parties will promptly (within 30 days) meet and confer to discuss changes to this MOU related to reducing wages, wage supplements, and/or benefits, and/or so that the Public Authority's/County's MOE remains the same as it would have been had the State and/or Federal participation levels not changed.
Wage Contingency. If the County Maintenance of Effort (MOE) is increased for the Public Authority and/or County as a result of the wage increase in this agreement and/or it is determined that because of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) the County will be penalized for eliminating the Health Benefits to increase Provider wages, the County is entitled to re-open negotiations and withdraw the wage increase request submitted to the state. If, during the term of this agreement, either the State and/or Federal participation levels are reduced in a manner that results in increased cost to the Public Authority and/or County; State realignment funding is reduced in a manner that results in increased cost to the Public Authority and/or County; the State caps its funding participation in a Provider wage lower than wages paid under this agreement; Federal and/or State changes happen, including Court decisions and/or in relation to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), that increase the cost to the current County Maintenance of Effort (MOE); or the State and/or Federal sharing formula is modified in any manner that would result in an increased cost to the Public Authority and/or County, the County is entitled to reduce wages by an amount necessary to keep the total Public Authority and/or County cost the same as it was before the State and/or Federal change, provided, however, that the facts the County relies upon in determining the increase in costs are subject to verification and the County must bargain with the Union over the impacts of any change to wages.
