Conservation and Recovery Efforts to Date Sample Clauses

Conservation and Recovery Efforts to Date. As previously described in section 2.1.2, threats from habitat loss due to timber harvest and severe wildfire, climate change, and barred owls continue to hinder recovery of the NSO. Conservation efforts by private landowners, agency staff, scientists and researchers, managers, and other parties on private and public lands are being implemented to address these primary threats and reverse the downward population trend based on the Recovery Actions in the Revised Recovery Plan (USDI FWS 2011). Conservation efforts include maintenance and restoration of NSO habitat, monitoring of avian diseases, development and potential implementation of a delisting monitoring plan, and management of the barred owl (USDI FWS 2011). As noted above, the effectiveness of these recovery efforts is currently being evaluated in response to a petition to uplist the NSO from threatened to endangered species status under the ESA.

  • Payment of Premiums; Substitution of Policy; Loss Reserve; Protection of Lender If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a condition of making the Loan, Borrower will pay the premiums required to maintain the Mortgage Insurance in effect. If Borrower was required to make separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, and (i) the Mortgage Insurance coverage required by Lender ceases for any reason to be available from the mortgage insurer that previously provided such insurance, or (ii) Lender determines in its sole discretion that such mortgage insurer is no longer eligible to provide the Mortgage Insurance coverage required by Lender, Borrower will pay the premiums required to obtain coverage substantially equivalent to the Mortgage Insurance previously in effect, at a cost substantially equivalent to the cost to Borrower of the Mortgage Insurance previously in effect, from an alternate mortgage insurer selected by Xxxxxx. If substantially equivalent Mortgage Insurance coverage is not available, Borrower will continue to pay to Lender the amount of the separately designated payments that were due when the insurance coverage ceased to be in effect. Lender will accept, use, and retain these payments as a non-refundable loss reserve in lieu of Mortgage Insurance. Such loss reserve will be non-refundable, even when the Loan is paid in full, and Lender will not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such loss reserve. Lender will no longer require loss reserve payments if Mortgage Insurance coverage (in the amount and for the period that Lender requires) provided by an insurer selected by Lender again becomes available, is obtained, and Lender requires separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a condition of making the Loan and Borrower was required to make separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, Borrower will pay the premiums required to maintain Mortgage Insurance in effect, or to provide a non-refundable loss reserve, until Lender’s requirement for Mortgage Insurance ends in accordance with any written agreement between Borrower and Lender providing for such termination or until termination is required by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 11 affects Borrower’s obligation to pay interest at the Note rate.
