Elevation Elevation is defined as restoring an employee to the higher classification, with permanent status, which was held prior to being granted a demotion or to a class that is between the current class and the class from which the employee was demoted. Upon elevation, an employee’s salary will be determined in the same manner that is provided for promotion in Section 43.5, above.
Scaling “Scaling,” as used herein, involves:
Blasting Blasting shall be permitted only for road construction purposes unless advance permission is obtained from Forest Service. Whenever the Industrial Fire Precaution Level is II or greater, a fire security person equipped with a long handled round point No. 0 or larger shovel and a 5 gallon backpack pump can filled with water, will stay at location of blast for 1 hour after blasting is done. Blasting may be suspended by Forest Service, in areas of high rate of spread and resistance to control. Fuses shall not be used for blasting. Explosive cords shall not be used without permission of Forest Service, which may specify conditions under which such explosives may be used and precautions to be taken.
Dressing Rooms 42.1 Adequate dressing rooms with standard size lockers and sitting areas shall be provided if the physical facilities permit.
Shift Rotation Routine shift rotation is not an approach to staffing endorsed by the Employer. Except for emergency situations where it may be necessary to provide safe patient care, shift rotation will not be utilized without mutual consent. If such an occasion should ever occur, volunteers will be sought first. If no one volunteers, the Employer will rotate shifts on an inverse seniority basis until the staff vacancies are filled.
Rotation Where the Employer's designate and the Union's designate at the local level agree that shifts be rotated, the shifts shall be rotated on an equitable basis among the employees involved.
Mowing Mowing, edging (of sidewalks, paved approaches and curbs), litter removal, herbicide treatment, grass clipping removal, and brush control are included under one bid item. Regular mowing under this contract is generally limited to mowing areas of shoulders, front and back slopes of ditches less than or equal to three-to-one (3:1) slope, roadside retention areas, dry roadside ditch bottoms, median islands and various width utility strips and similar areas. Slope mowing, which is also a contract requirement, is generally limited to slopes greater or steeper than three-to-one (3:1) and are relatively inaccessible to the use of conventional mowing equipment (e.g., steep slopes, retention area banks and shores, bridge/overpass banks, canal banks, wet roadside ditches, etc). These types of areas will normally require equipment specifically designed for this type of work. When slope mowing is performed, it will incorporate the use of string trimmers to protect the integrity of the slope and prevent damage to the turf. Sign posts, mailboxes, guardrails, trees, roadside outfall structures, fences, divider walls, shrubs, plants, light poles, utility flags or other such obstacles to mowing will be hand mowed or trimmed around as necessary to present a groomed appearance. Top of vegetation on wet bottom ditches areas must be cut-off to the water’s level. Particular attention will be paid to planted areas. Any damage that occurs to plants, trees, shrubs, mulched beds, tree rings, sprinkler heads, etc., will be repaired or restored, at the Contractor’s expense, before the cycle is completed. Mowing will also include grass clipping removal and litter removal, edging, and herbicide treatment. These costs will be included in the unit price bid for right-of-way mowing.
Traffic Management The Customer will not utilize the Services in a manner which, in the view of the Centre Operator, significantly distorts traffic balance on the Centre Operator’s circuits which are shared with other users. If, in the reasonable view of the Centre Operator, the Customer’s traffic patterns cause or may cause such distortion, the Customer should have a dedicated circuit capability. If the Customer declines to do so then the Centre Operator may suspend the Services while the matter is being resolved. If there is no resolution within 5 business days then either party may terminate the Agreement.
Foundation In their respective agreements, the parties have recommended that a temporary manpower/resource pool of permanent employees be set up to cover normal absences (Section 20 of the Agreement).
