Common use of Secondary Data Clause in Contracts

Secondary Data. a) Secondary data that directly affect the potential distribution of a disease can be used to determine the potential area of infection. Secondary data will only be used if all parties on the NBMCC agree and only if it is available, highly relevant and incontrovertible. b) Secondary data includes: i) spatial information on dams ii) the hydrologic regime (water levels, flow, turbidity etc) iii) water chemistry (oxygen levels, salinity, hardness, acidity, pollution etc). c) If the secondary data are known to limit the extent of potential distribution they should be combined with the modelling output to increase the robustness of the conclusions on potential distribution. d) It may also be useful to analyse a number of factors to establish the timing of management actions and response arrangements. Such factors may include: i) mechanisms of pathogen transmission ii) knowledge of potential vectors iii) natural barriers.
