ALTERNATIVE 3: SHA WITH ADDITIONAL SET-ASIDES Sample Clauses

ALTERNATIVE 3: SHA WITH ADDITIONAL SET-ASIDES. ‌ Under Alternative 3, an SHA similar to the Proposed Action would be developed with additional set-asides. The primary silvicultural management regime would include several options for mid- rotation management that are primarily determined by factors including steepness of slopes and the feasibility of using ground-based logging equipment, as well as ecological considerations and desired future condition. The specific marbled murrelet conservation measures include establishing Special Set-Aside (SSA) areas. SSAs total 3,819 acres and are unique sites, both forested and non-forested, with perceived high conservation value that would provide a greater amount of older forest habitat within the Enrolled Lands than would occur under current Forest Practices Rules. SSAs are assumed to include Presumed Habitat (totaling 453 acres), More-Likely-Than-Not habitat (886 acres of Western Hemlock), and Marginal Nesting Habitat which are defined as forests that will “age into” More-Likely-Than-Not habitat during the life of the Permit (2,469 acres of Western Hemlock with an age class of 94-129 and 11 acres of Xxxxxxx Fir with an age class of 184-219). These areas would be retained for the life of the SHA, producing older trees that could provide nesting opportunities to marbled murrelets by the end of the Permit term. Existing Occupied Sites would not be harvested during the life of the SHA and would be subject to a 300-foot managed Occupied Site Buffer. Additionally, if new Occupied Sites are discovered, up to 3 Occupied Sites would be managed the same as under the No Action Alternative for up to 3 years. If a fourth nest site or occupied stand is discovered within the same year, no murrelet- specific harvest restrictions would be imposed. Components of Alternative 3 that would not be included in the No Action Alternative are deferment of harvest within SSAs for the term of the Permit and provisions for protecting new Occupied Sites discovered in the Enrolled Lands during the term of the Permit that differ from the protections required under the Forest Practices Rules (No Action). In exchange for providing additional retention of some or all existing Potential Nesting Habitat (within SSAs), Applicant would be provided take coverage for all of Applicant’s owned lands.

ALTERNATIVE 3: SHA WITH ADDITIONAL SET-ASIDES. Under Alternative 3, the Applicant would set aside an estimated 2,515 acres in SSAs (which includes Murrlet Habtiat Development Areas). These SSAs would have reasonably foreseeable positive impacts on species that prefer the habitat types set aside in SSAs, such as old growth forests, potentially unstable slopes (many of which are likely protected under the Forest Practices Program under all alternatives), and forested wetlands (many of which are also likely protected under the Forest Practices Program under all alternatives). While timber harvest activities have the potential to negatively affect wildlife both directly and indirectly, these effects are not expected to be significantly different under any of the alternatives under consideration.
ALTERNATIVE 3: SHA WITH ADDITIONAL SET-ASIDES. Under Alternative 3, the Applicant would agree to voluntarily protect (i.e., not harvest) known Occupied Sites (1,240 acres), and Murrelet Habitat Development Areas (64 acres), and other areas of Potential Nesting Habitat (2,515 acres) as Special Set-Asides (SSAs), for the life of the proposed SHA, and the USFWS would issue an Enhancement of Survival Permit under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA that would authorize “incidental take” of marbled murrelets while conducting otherwise lawful forest practices on the Enrolled Lands. Management within Forests & Fish Buffers: The effects of Alternative 3 are similar to those described under Alternative 2, except there would be no selective management within areas identified as SSAs (2,515 acres). The projected increase in Potential Nesting Habitat in the Forests & Fish Buffers is the same as the No Action Alternative. Potential for incidental take would be limited to noise and visual disturbance, and habitat degradation associated with small areas subject to road construction or selective harvest in Forests and Fish Buffers.

Migratory Birds The primary concern for migratory birds from actions authorized by this EA is in regard to the loss or disturbance of occupied nests and of individual birds. Timber harvest has the potential to affect migratory birds during the breeding and nesting season (May 15 to July 15) through disturbance and resource alteration. Disturbance to nesting birds includes physical ground changing disturbance, presence of humans, auditory disturbance, nest destruction, any action that results in nest abandonment, direct injuring or death of a bird. While timber harvest activities have the potential to affect migratory birds both directly and indirectly, there are no significant differences in these effects under any of the alternatives under consideration. Implementation of The Service’s Nationwide Standard Conservation Measures (Appendix D; available online at xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/library/collections/avoiding-and-minimizing-incidental-take-migratory- birds) can reduce or minimize potential impacts to migratory birds, but implementation of these measures is voluntary.

  • Payments Set Aside To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

  • How Are Distributions from a Xxxx XXX Taxed for Federal Income Tax Purposes Amounts distributed to you are generally excludable from your gross income if they (i) are paid after you attain age 59½, (ii) are made to your beneficiary after your death, (iii) are attributable to your becoming disabled, (iv) subject to various limits, the distribution is used to purchase a first home or, in limited cases, a second or subsequent home for you, your spouse, or you or your spouse’s grandchild or ancestor, or (v) are rolled over to another Xxxx XXX. Regardless of the foregoing, if you or your beneficiary receives a distribution within the five-taxable-year period starting with the beginning of the year to which your initial contribution to your Xxxx XXX applies, the earnings on your account are includable in taxable income. In addition, if you roll over (convert) funds to your Xxxx XXX from another individual retirement plan (such as a Traditional IRA or another Xxxx XXX into which amounts were rolled from a Traditional IRA), the portion of a distribution attributable to rolled-over amounts which exceeds the amounts taxed in connection with the conversion to a Xxxx XXX is includable in income (and subject to penalty tax) if it is distributed prior to the end of the five-tax-year period beginning with the start of the tax year during which the rollover occurred. An amount taxed in connection with a rollover is subject to a 10% penalty tax if it is distributed before the end of the five-tax-year period. As noted above, the five-year holding period requirement is measured from the beginning of the five-taxable-year period beginning with the first taxable year for which you (or your spouse) made a contribution to a Xxxx XXX on your behalf. Previously, the law required that a separate five-year holding period apply to regular Xxxx XXX contributions and to amounts contributed to a Xxxx XXX as a result of the rollover or conversion of a Traditional IRA. Even though the holding period requirement has been simplified, it may still be advisable to keep regular Xxxx XXX contributions and rollover/ conversion Xxxx XXX contributions in separate accounts. This is because amounts withdrawn from a rollover/conversion Xxxx XXX within five years of the rollover/conversion may be subject to a 10% penalty tax. As noted above, a distribution from a Xxxx XXX that complies with all of the distribution and holding period requirements is excludable from your gross income. If you receive a distribution from a Xxxx XXX that does not comply with these rules, the part of the distribution that constitutes a return of your contributions will not be included in your taxable income, and the portion that represents earnings will be includable in your income. For this purpose, certain ordering rules apply. Amounts distributed to you are treated as coming first from your non-deductible contributions. The next portion of a distribution is treated as coming from amounts which have been rolled over (converted) from any non-Xxxx IRAs in the order such amounts were rolled over. Any remaining amounts (including all earnings) are distributed last. Any portion of your distribution which does not meet the criteria for exclusion from gross income may also be subject to a 10% penalty tax. Note that to the extent a distribution would be taxable to you, neither you nor anyone else can qualify for capital gains treatment for amounts distributed from your account. Similarly, you are not entitled to the special five- or ten- year averaging rule for lump-sum distributions that may be available to persons receiving distributions from certain other types of retirement plans. Rather, the taxable portion of any distribution is taxed to you as ordinary income. Your Xxxx XXX is not subject to taxes on excess distributions or on excess amounts remaining in your account as of your date of death. You must indicate on your distribution request whether federal income taxes should be withheld on a distribution from a Xxxx XXX. If you do not make a withholding election, we will not withhold federal or state income tax. Note that, for federal tax purposes (for example, for purposes of applying the ordering rules described above), Xxxx IRAs are considered separately from Traditional IRAs.
