Common use of Learning Plans Clause in Contracts

Learning Plans. A Learning Plan (Appendix H1) is required for class 2 Transboundary Waters. As such, a Learning Plan will be developed for both the Beaver and La Biche Rivers. The Learning Plan provides additional information to confirm or alter the assigned classification and contribute to baseline information for Transboundary Waters. As part of the Learning Plan, ratios of allocated withdrawals (or of actual consumption) to stream flow will be tracked on an instantaneous, daily, weekly, monthly or annual basis in support of the future development of Triggers and Transboundary Water Quantity Objectives, as required. Tracking metrics in water quantity conditions will include the tracking of stream flow and amount of water allocated for various uses. Learning Plans should help to understand baseline water quantity and reflect the seasonal site-specific characteristics of each water body. This information will be used to aid with evaluation of whether a Transboundary Water should change RIM classification.
