Field Monitoring Sample Clauses
The Field Monitoring clause establishes the right and procedures for overseeing activities or operations conducted at a specific site or location. Typically, this clause allows one party—often the project owner or client—to observe, inspect, or review the work being performed by another party, such as a contractor or service provider, to ensure compliance with agreed standards and requirements. For example, it may permit regular site visits, progress checks, or the review of records related to field activities. The core function of this clause is to provide transparency and accountability, helping to identify and address issues early and ensuring that work is performed according to contract specifications.
Field Monitoring. (i) The power supply was checked to ensure the HVS works properly.
(ii) The filter holder and the area surrounding the filter were cleaned.
(iii) The filter holder was removed by loosening the four bolts and a new filter, with stamped number upward, on a supporting screen was aligned carefully.
(iv) The filter was properly aligned on the screen so that the gasket formed an airtight seal on the outer edges of the filter.
(v) The swing bolts were fastened to hold the filter holder down to the frame. The pressure applied was sufficient to avoid air leakage at the edges.
(vi) Then the shelter lid was closed and was secured with the aluminum strip.
(vii) The HVS was warmed-up for about 5 minutes to establish run-temperature conditions.
(viii) A new flow rate record sheet was set into the flow recorder.
(ix) On site temperature and atmospheric pressure readings were taken and the flow rate of the HVS was checked and adjusted at around 1.1 m3/min, and complied with the range specified in the updated EM&A Manual (i.e. 0.6-1.7 m3/min).
(x) The programmable digital timer was set for a sampling period of 24 hrs, and the starting time, weather condition and the filter number were recorded.
(xi) The initial elapsed time was recorded.
(xii) At the end of sampling, on site temperature and atmospheric pressure readings were taken and the final flow rate of the HVS was checked and recorded.
(xiii) The final elapsed time was recorded.
(xiv) The sampled filter was removed carefully and folded in half length so that only surfaces with collected particulate matter were in contact.
(xv) It was then placed in a clean plastic envelope and sealed.
(xvi) All monitoring information was recorded on a standard data sheet.
(xvii) Filters were then sent to ALS Technichem (HK) Pty Ltd. for analysis.
Field Monitoring. The City may periodically monitor collection system parameters such as participation, Container condition, Container weights, waste composition and Customer satisfaction. The Contractor shall assist the City by coordinating the Contractor’s operations with the City’s field monitoring to minimize inconvenience to Customers, the City and the Contractor.
Field Monitoring. Several field monitoring procedures will be conducted throughout the term of this Agreement. In particular, the starting and ending dates of salmon spawning may be monitored each year as described in Appendix J. Annual monitoring may also be used to identify when the Steelhead Fry Protection Period begins and/or ends. Fry stranding surveys may be conducted during the peak fry vulnerability periods to monitor fry stranding levels. All field monitoring studies shall be developed by consensus of the FCC and shall be conducted by a monitoring team composed of at least one representative of the City and at least one representative of another Party.
6.7.2.1 Whenever disputes arise regarding the data collected in field studies or the interpretation of that data within or between the FCC or the Field Monitoring team, the default start and end dates established in Sections 6.3.2.1 and 6.3.3.1 of this Agreement shall prevail.
6.7.2.2 Salmon Spawning Start and End Dates This Agreement specifies default start and end dates for salmon spawning. The City may elect to conduct annual surveys that will provide site specific data required to either delay the start or advance the end dates according to criteria listed in Appendix J. Surveys will be conducted as needed at index locations and/or reaches predetermined by the FCC. These surveys will be conducted at the direction of the FCC, acting through a Field Monitoring team as described in Appendix ▇.
3.3.1 will be implemented in the case of start date or maintained in the case of end date on the default dates unless the surveys indicate that spawning activity (according to evidence described in Appendix J) has begun or ceased, respectively. If survey observations are determined to be unreliable, the default dates shall determine the start or end of ▇▇▇▇ protection measures.
Field Monitoring. Field monitoring of disaster debris hauling service providers shall be performed in accordance with current federal, state, and local requirements and in coordination with City staff. The Service Provider may be asked to assist with the following tasks:
1. Debris Monitoring Employees – The Service Provider shall be required to perform adequate training for local staff hired at no expense to the City. Additionally, the Service Provider shall be prepared to bring in experienced field monitors to oversee operations and to perform tasks if there is a concern over the quality of work. The Service Provider shall provide all field personnel with badges (including a recent photo) identifying them as City vendors and field reference documents (e.g., sample completed tickets, etc.). All Service Provider employees must be able to effectively communicate to a level appropriate to their responsibilities. For example, a disposal site monitor must be able to accurately write a load ticket.
Field Monitoring. The Contractor shall provide a quality control team consisting at a minimum of two (2) monitors per site and one (1) monitor per recovery crew. This team shall monitor the recovery contractors for contract compliance, efficiency and regulatory compliance and provide feedback to the County through their management team. They shall be equipped with state–of-the art technology, which include digital cameras, computers and other communication devices and GPS units with an accuracy of 3 meters.
1. Responsibilities of the Quality Control Team: The Quality Control Team shall:
a. Document daily and weekly recovery work, ensuring that proper records are maintained for trip tickets and recovery costs.
b. Inspect means and methods to measure and record work and recommend changes that may be needed.
c. Stop work in progress that is not being performed or documented in the appropriate manner.
d. Inspect work in progress to ensure that removal efforts include debris of the proper type in the proper areas.
e. Check work in process to make sure that the proper work authorizations, permits, and other prerequisites has been received.
f. Report any improvements in work assignments and/or efficiency/productivity that may be appropriate.
g. Maintain digital photo and GPS documentation of recovery work on a weekly basis.
Field Monitoring. The Consultant shall provide trained staff in sufficient numbers to adequately monitor all operations (Monitors) supervised by Field Operations Managers. Duties of Monitors shall include, but are not limited to, the following:
5.3.1 Truck certification and documentation of all vehicles used in the debris removal activities.
5.3.2 Quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) of truck certification measurements throughout life of project.

5.3.4 As directed by the City, provide monitoring services and documentation of all eligible debris removal activities from second and subsequent passes on all roadways.
5.3.5 Ensure that ineligible debris is not collected by the debris removal contractor, unless directed in writing by the City.
Field Monitoring. The CONTRACTOR shall conduct field monitoring of their marketers/facilitators, including announced and unannounced observed interviews between marketers/facilitators and applicants. If the CONTRACTOR does not have field marketers, it shall develop a process for observing the actions of their marketers when assisting applicants (e.g., over the telephone). This process must be reviewed and approved by the STATE. The CONTRACTOR shall conduct secret shopping of their marketers/facilitators to ensure that marketers/facilitators are following the rules and do not coach or condone applicants to falsify information. The CONTRACTOR may use its employees as secret shoppers or may contract with another entity for such services. If all application assistance by the CONTRACTOR is provided over the telephone, the CONTRACTOR may meet the secret shopping requirement by recording telephone conversations to ensure the accuracy of the information provided. The CONTRACTOR must immediately remove from facilitated enrollment activities any marketing representative or facilitator found to be coaching or condoning applicants to falsify information. The CONTRACTOR must review all applications of any employee found to be engaged in fraud for the prior three months, make the appropriate adjustments to claims for applicants found to be ineligible, and report such findings to the STATE and the LDSS, if applicable. The CONTRACTOR shall submit its secret shopping plan to the STATE for approval prior to implementation.
Field Monitoring. After approval of the field sampling and quality assurance plan, field monitoring will be conducted in accordance with the Plan. It is anticipated that field monitoring will include the following: Collection of water quality samples in one location on the lake at the site of the potential intake identified by the OWNER as 2,328,053.308, 1,525,471.820. Based on online bathymetry maps of Lake ▇▇▇▇▇▇, this location has a depth of ~50 feet at full pool (~15 meters). The location will be accessed via boat and identified using global positioning system (fiPS). The boat will be stabilized to the most reasonable extent possible during sampling to ensure the same location is accessed each time. One ENfiINEER staff will be accompanied by one sub-consultant boat captain when conducting the water quality monitoring. Collection of water quality samples will occur at least two times per month for a consecutive 12- month period, for a total of 24 monitoring events. During times of lake turnover (~late September to late-October) and stratification (~early April to ~early May), collection of water quality samples may be increased to occur on a weekly basis, for up to an additional 6 monitoring events. A Secchi disk will be used to provide a quantitative measurement of water clarity. firab samples will be collected using a ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ sampler. For all sample events, in situ measurements (see Exhibit 1 for a list of parameters) will be collected using a calibrated handheld water quality meter. In situ measurements will be recorded at one-meter increments, from the bottom of the reservoir to the surface of the reservoir. firab samples for algae and chlorophyll-a will be only be collected at one location near the surface of the reservoir. firab samples for all other water quality parameters (see Exhibit 1) will be collected from five reservoir elevations, one near the surface, one near the bottom, and up to three other depths as determined in collaboration between the ENfiINEER and the OWNER. Based on the results of the initial samples, the number of samples collected at the lower elevations may be reduced.
