Phase II (Additional Tools) Clause Samples
The 'Phase II (Additional Tools)' clause defines the terms under which additional tools or resources may be provided or implemented during the second phase of a project or agreement. Typically, this clause outlines what constitutes 'additional tools,' the process for their selection or approval, and any associated costs or responsibilities for both parties. For example, it may specify that new software, equipment, or services can be introduced if needed to meet project objectives. The core function of this clause is to provide a structured mechanism for expanding the scope of resources as the project evolves, ensuring flexibility and adaptability while maintaining clear expectations and accountability.
Phase II (Additional Tools). The Coordinating Committee shall jointly decide on additional Tools, for the District to implement in order to achieve the pertinent survival standard(s) using the following criteria:
1. Likelihood of biological success;
2. Time required to implement; and
3. Cost–effectiveness of solutions, but only where two or more alternatives are comparable in their biological effectiveness. Until the pertinent survival standard is achieved, the Parties shall continue to implement Phase II (Additional Tools) for the standard and for each Plan Species that is not meeting the pertinent survival standard, except as set forth in sub- Section 2.2.1 (Enough Already) and sub-Section 2.2.4 (Impossibility). The Coordinating Committee will determine the number of valid studies (not to exceed three years of study) necessary to make a Phase determination following the implementation of Additional Tools.
Phase II (Additional Tools). If the Coordinating Committee has determined, based on Phase I monitoring and evaluation or Phase III periodic monitoring, that Juvenile Project Survival is less than 91% or Juvenile Dam Passage Survival (measured or calculated) is less than 95%, the District shall move to Phase II for that Plan Species.
Phase II (Additional Tools). If the Coordinating Committee has determined, based on Phase I monitoring and evaluation or Phase III periodic monitoring, that Juvenile Project Survival is less than 91% or Juvenile Dam Passage Survival (measured or calculated) is less than 95%, the District shall move to Phase II for that Plan Species. (Phase II Additional Tools). If measurement and evaluation concludes that the survival standard(s) being evaluated are not achieved, the Coordinating Committee shall decide on additional Tools for the District to implement in order to achieve the survival standard(s) being evaluated using the following criteria: Likelihood of biological success; Time required to implement; and Cost-effectiveness of solutions, but only where two or more alternatives are comparable in their biological effectiveness. Until the survival standard(s) being evaluated are achieved, the Parties shall continue to implement Phase II (Additional Tools) for the standard and for each Plan Species that is not meeting the pertinent survival standard, except as set forth in Section 2.4 “Impossibility”. The Coordinating Committee will determine the number of valid studies (not to exceed three years) necessary to make a phase determination following the implementation of Additional Tools.
