Introduction and Overview. Political Science is an academic field of study focusing on key questions of political power, processes, and the authority of the institutions of the state. Analysis of governmental organizations and processes often involves understanding the political system (actors, institutions, and law) as a whole – in other words “politics” – “who gets what, when, and how.” The study of politics also requires examining the role of citizens and how they can influence (and are influenced by) governmental institutions, processes, and the law. Political Science also examines the “behavior” of informal political processes and actors – interest groups, media, public opinion, political culture, and non-governmental actors. Political Scientists study such processes in an effort to develop general principles or theories about the way the world of politics works. Subfields within Political Science include: U.S. institutions and government, international relations, comparative politics, political theory, public administration, public policy, and the law. Overall, Political Science as a discipline is housed within the larger academic sphere of the social sciences and thus employs an array of research methodologies in the development of said principles and theories. In accordance with Article XX-C of the Public School Code of 1949, this Agreement ensures that a student who successfully completes an Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) degree in Political Science (or any AA or AS degree that incorporates the competencies required and outlined below) at an institution participating in the Commonwealth’s statewide college credit transfer system can transfer with junior standing into a parallel bachelor degree program at a participating four-year institution. In order for students to transfer the full associate degree into a parallel bachelor degree program at a participating four-year institution with full junior-standing, all of the following criteria must be met: The associate degree must include a minimum of 60 college-level credits. The associate degree must include at least twelve (12) college-level credits that incorporate the competencies identified in four Major-Specific Content Areas as well as all of the Required General Competencies identified in this agreement. The student must successfully complete 30 credits of foundation-level coursework from the Transfer Credit Framework. The total number of Political Science credits completed at the associate-d...

Introduction and Overview. On February 18, 2010, the United States, the States of California and Oregon, PacifiCorp, Indian tribes, and a number of other stakeholders signed the Klamath Hydroelectric Settlement Agreement (KHSA). The original KHSA was subsequently amended and signed in April and November 2016; the amendments did not affect the interim measures. The amended KHSA lays out the process for transferring ownership of PacifiCorp’s Klamath Hydroelectric Project to an independent dam removal entity (DRE) and then eventual decommissioning and removal of four dams on the Klamath River (i.e., X.X. Xxxxx, Copco 1, Copco 2, and Iron Gate dams) by the DRE following approvals from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The KHSA includes provisions and detailed actions for the interim operation of the dams and mitigation activities prior to removal of the dams or the termination of KHSA. One of these measures titled: Interim Measure 15 - Water Quality Monitoring states that PacifiCorp shall fund ($500,000 per year) long-term baseline water quality monitoring to support water quality improvement activities, dam removal studies, permitting studies (as necessary), and form a long-term record to assess trends and other potential changes in the basin. This includes funding for blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) and cyanobacteria toxin monitoring, to protect public health. This plan addresses the eleventh year of monitoring under Interim Measure 15 (hereafter referred to as IM 15). Since the goals and objectives of IM 15 remain the same and the sampling entities and locations are basically unchanged since monitoring began in 20091, this document provides a brief summary of the of IM 15 goals and objectives, sampling strategies, and any updates and/or changes to the sampling from previous plans. Detailed discussions on goals, objectives and the rationale for the parameters sampled can be found in the previous study plans, available on the Klamath Basin Monitoring Program (KBMP) website (xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx under the Collaboration tab on the Home page). This website hosts all of the IM 15 study plans and results. These study plans are also available on the PacifiCorp Klamath Hydroelectric Project website (xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/energy/hydro/klamath-river.html). This study plan outlines the parameters to be sampled, their frequency and location by sampling entity for the monitoring period from February through December 2020. The IM 15 monitoring program includes monitoring of the Klamath...
