Clarification of Opposition by Unauthorized Persons. SSOC and each SSOC Member shall deliver to TCA a signed letter in the form of Exhibit E (“Non-Opposition Letter”) no later than five (5) business days after the Effective Date. If TCA becomes aware that an individual has taken an action or makes a statement in the Environmental Review Process that would constitute a violation of the Agreement under this Section or Section 5.1.2 if such action were undertaken by SSOC or an SSOC Member, and such individual states or implies that he represents SSOC or an SSOC Member, or that such action or statement is the position of SSOC or an SSOC Member, the SSOC Designee or the SSOC Member, as applicable, shall, as promptly as possible but no later than 3 business days of a request by TCA, indicate to TCA whether the individual was authorized to speak on behalf of the SSOC or SSOC Member. If the individual was not authorized to speak on behalf of the SSOC or SSOC Member, TCA may submit the Non-Opposition Letter signed by SSOC or the applicable SSOC Member to the appropriate agency for inclusion in the administrative record to clarify the position of SSOC or the SSOC Member. In the event that there is a reasonable likelihood that the Non-Opposition Letter would be insufficient to clarify the position of SSOC or the SSOC Member, and that the statement or action that is covered by this Section could adversely affect the approval of a Post Settlement Alignment in the Environmental Review Process, then upon request by TCA, SSOC or the SSOC Member, as appropriate, shall meet and confer with TCA to identify a mutually- agreeable approach to clarify SSOC’s or the SSOC Member’s position. If SSOC or an SSOC Member becomes aware that an individual has taken an action or made a statement that is covered by this Section, the SSOC Designee, or SSOC Member, as applicable, shall promptly notify TCA of such action or statement.
