Measures to Monitor, Minimize and Mitigate Negative Impacts Clause Samples

Measures to Monitor, Minimize and Mitigate Negative Impacts. Management actions such as major earthwork, removal of non-native vegetation, pesticide application, and other management activities, will be scheduled in advance, and notification at least 14 days before the activities will be provided to the Natural Resources Section of ADOT. Activities which are expected to result in major siltation or contamination of the channel will be delayed until the fish can be safely removed from the channel and temporarily housed in aquaria, fish farms (i.e., circular holding tanks) (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 1993), or small wading pools (Minckley, personal communication). If activities are going to require long-term removal of fish, arrangements can be made to house them at alternative locations or release them elsewhere. If mosquitofish occur in any water, they must be removed before Gila topminnow or desert pupfish are released. The mosquitofish in the Kyrene basin will be removed before reintroduction of pupfish and topminnow. If other non-native aquatic species occur at other potential reintroduction sites, the use of that basin must be decided on a site-specific basis. Actions such as annual trash clean-ups, research, and planting of native vegetation aren’t expected to result in significant take and can be minimized and mitigated by taking extreme care while performing these activities. Students, volunteers, and staff working in or around the channel will be supervised at all times by an ADOT employee, and instruction on proper safeguards will be provided to all personnel prior to initiating work in or around the channel.

Measures to Monitor, Minimize and Mitigate Negative Impacts. Management actions such as major earthwork, removal of nonnative aquatic species, pesticide application, and other management activities expected to result in take, will be scheduled in advance, and notification, at least 30 days before the activities, will be provided to the Department. This will allow the Department the opportunity to relocate fish temporarily if deemed necessary by the Department in consultation with the Service. If activities require long-term removal of fish, arrangements can be made to house them at alternative locations. If mosquitofish occur in any habitat covered under this Agreement, removal efforts must be attempted before topminnow and/or pupfish are released. If other nonnative aquatic species occur at potential sites, utilization of those habitats will be decided on a site- specific basis. Any loss of the populations due to such disturbances may require supplemental stockings of topminnow and/or pupfish. The Department will consult with the Service and criteria in the species’ recovery plans to determine the appropriate source population for initial and supplemental stockings.

  • Aggravating and Mitigating Factors The penalties in this matter were determined in consideration of all relevant circumstances, including statutory factors as described in CARB’s Enforcement Policy. CARB considered whether the violator came into compliance quickly and cooperated with the investigation; the extent of harm to public health, safety and welfare; nature and persistence of the violation, including the magnitude of the excess emissions; compliance history; preventative efforts taken; innovative nature and the magnitude of the effort required to comply, and the accuracy, reproducibility, and repeatability of the available test methods; efforts to attain, or provide for, compliance prior to violation; action taken to mitigate the violation; financial burden to the violator; and voluntary disclosure. The penalties are set at levels sufficient to deter violations, to remove any economic benefit or unfair advantage from noncompliance, to obtain swift compliance, and the potential costs, risks, and uncertainty associated with litigation. Penalties in future cases might be smaller or larger depending on the unique circumstances of the case.

  • Corrective Measures If the Participating Generator fails to meet or maintain the requirements set forth in this Agreement and/or the CAISO Tariff, the CAISO shall be permitted to take any of the measures, contained or referenced in the CAISO Tariff, which the CAISO deems to be necessary to correct the situation.
