Risk Assessment An assessment of any risks inherent in the work requirements and actions to mitigate these risks.
Needs Assessment 1. The Contractor shall conduct a cultural and linguistic group-needs assessment of the eligible client population in the Contractor’s service area to assess the language needs of the population and determine what reasonable steps are necessary to ensure meaningful access to services and activities to eligible individuals. [22 CCR 98310, 98314] The group-needs assessment shall take into account the following four (4) factors:
a. Number or proportion of persons with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) eligible to be served or encountered by the program.
b. Frequency with which LEP individuals come in contact with the program.
c. Nature and importance of the services provided.
d. Local or frequently used resources available to the Contractor. This group-needs assessment will serve as the basis for the Contractor’s determination of “reasonable steps” and provide documentary evidence of compliance with Cal. Gov. Code § 11135 et seq.; 2 CCR 11140, 2 CCR 11200 et seq., and 22 CCR98300 et seq.
2. The Contractor shall prepare and make available a report of the findings of the group-needs assessment that summarizes:
a. Methodologies used.
b. The linguistic and cultural needs of non-English speaking or LEP groups.
c. Services proposed to address the needs identified and a timeline for implementation. [22 CCR 98310]
3. The Contractor shall maintain a record of the group-needs assessment on file at the Contractor’s headquarters at all times during the term of this Agreement. [22 CCR 98310, 98313]
Problem Statement School bus fleets are aging, and our communities have poor air quality. Replacing school buses with zero emission school buses will address both of these issues.
Screening and Assessment Grantee shall:
1. Comply with all applicable rules in the TAC for SUD programs as stated in the SUD UM Guidelines Information, Rules, and Regulations regarding Screening and Assessment.
2. When documenting a CMBHS Substance Use Disorder screening, Grantee shall conduct the screening in a confidential, face-to-face interview unless there is documented justification for an interview by phone.
3. Document Financial Eligibility in CMBHS as required in the SUD UM Guidelines.
4. Conduct and document a CMBHS SUD Initial Assessment with the client to determine the appropriate levels of care for SUD treatment. The CMBHS assessment will identify the impact of substances on the physical, mental health, and other identified issues including Tuberculosis, Hepatitis C, sexually transmitted infection (STI), and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
i. If client indicates risk for these communicable diseases, Grantee shall refer the client to the appropriate community resources for further testing and counseling.
ii. If the client is at risk for HIV, Grantee shall refer the client to pre and post- test counseling on HIV.
5. Grantee will also consider referring to the TRA Statewide HIV Intensive Residential Treatment facility to concurrently address medical needs and SUD.
6. If a client is living with HIV, Grantee will refer the client to the appropriate community resources to complete the necessary referrals and health related paperwork.
7. The assessment shall be signed by a Qualified Credential Counselor (QCC) and filed in the client record within three (3) service days of admission or a program may accept an evaluation from an outside entity if it meets the criteria for admission and was completed during the thirty (30) business days preceding admission.
Phase II A small portion of the work for the Phase II modifications to the Plattsburgh Substation will be performed by Transmission Owner, and the remainder will be performed by Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. A detailed definition of the specific scope for Transmission Owner and Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ including interface points shall be defined during the design phase and, as such documents become available, copies will be delivered to the NYISO, Transmission Owner, Noble Altona Windpark, LLC and Marble River, LLC. The full scope includes the installation of wave traps, CCVT’s and modifications and/or additions to relaying on the MWP-1 and MWP- 2 lines. These lines will be reconfigured at the completion of Phase II to connect to ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Substations on MWP-1 and the ▇▇▇▇ Substation on MWP-2. Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will design the upgrades and purchase the materials based on the outline specification that was prepared and issued by Transmission Owner. The work to be performed by Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will include both the materials for the exterior and interior installations and items for Transmission Owner installation inside the control building in existing relay panels and communication racks. In addition, Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be responsible for the exterior and interior construction work and will provide construction management services in coordination with Transmission Owner. The civil design for the foundations and the electrical design for the cable runs to the control room will be designed by, as approved by Transmission Owner, and installed under the supervision and control of Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The equipment will be selected and procured in accordance with the specifications developed during the detailed engineering phase, copies of which shall be furnished to the NYISO, Transmission Owner, Noble Altona Windpark, LLC and Marble River, LLC. The construction of the foundations, structures, wave traps, CCTV and cable runs into the control building to the termination cabinets will be completed by Clinton and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The work at the Plattsburgh Substation will be installed under Transmission Owner’s CPP-1. Transmission Owner will provide Protection and Controls Engineering, install and terminate wiring from the termination cabinets to the control panels and relays, install relays and equipment in the existing panels, and will commission such work inside the 230kV control building. Transmission Owner will develop the communications protocols and data flow over the circuits.
