QUALIFYING PROCESS. A. Qualification of models should occur via use of ASTM Methods E2558 and E2515 at the “worst case” burn rates identified using the appropriate Program test method (see Attachment 2 and the ASTM methods). For retrofit device qualification, some variances of the above test methods may be necessary. Any variances will need to be approved by EPA, preferably in advance of testing. Testing must be conducted by an EPA accredited test laboratory or a certification body (see Partnership Agreement, Definitions section). A test report will be prepared using a template supplied by EPA.
QUALIFYING PROCESS. At the conclusion of the calendar year management will produce documentation to support which employees are not qualified for this benefit. For program areas with the capability, a report will be produced of non-qualifying functions and hours expended on the non-qualifying activities. For program areas without this capability a more generalized report listing the individuals not qualified for the benefit and the reasons wherefore, will be produced. Employees determined by management not qualified for this benefit, based upon this review, will be notified in writing by management within 45 days. These employees may have access to background data supporting the report and will be afforded the opportunity to challenge the assessment. Any relevant information submitted by a challenging employee will be considered by management and a final determination will be made within 45 days. The qualifying process and any subsequent review is not grievable. Sincerely, _ Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, Director Governor's Office of Employee Relations Xxxx X.
