## Slide 4

## Texas Emissions Reduction Program Fundingbased on new HB 1365

- Funding restored to an average of $150 million per year
- 87.5% ($130 million) of funding for TCEQ’s emission reduction programs.
- 0% for the light-duty purchase and lease incentives
- 0% for energy efficiency programs.
- 9.5% ($14.25 million) for new technology and research (TCET).
- 3.0% for administrative costs of TCEQ and the Energy Systems Lab at Tx A&M.

## SIP Credit for Energy Efficiency

- Basic idea:  reduce energy consumption, then reduce emissions from power plants; quantification of geographic emissions reductions done via Art Diem (EPA-OAP) method.
- State worked with OAQPS and proposed first plan to obtain SIP credits for voluntary energy reductions measures, in conjunction with Texas Senate Bill 5.

## Municipal/County Action Plan

- Sponsored “Clean Air Resolution”
- Counties and cities agreed to:
- 	1.  Inventory vehicles and update within four years.
- 	2.  Perform an energy efficiency audit of all county and 	   city buildings utilizing a 1999 baseline.
- Resolution passed by:
- Counties: Collin, Dallas, Denton and Tarrant.
- Cities: Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Richardson, Plano, Garland and Denton.

## Goals of Municipal Actions

- Consistent with criterion for voluntary reductions through the proposed EPA EE/RE SIP credit guidance.
- Meet/exceed requirements of SB5, which require municipalities in 41 critical non-attainment counties to reduce energy consumption by 5% per year through 2007.
- Building retrofits consistent with/exceeding Energy Star standards.

- Esther R. Miller
- Presentation at blah blah

## Oveview

- Description of Returns Based Methodology
- Description of People Based Methodology
- Scenario to Compare Differences

## Step 1:  	Obtain Administrative 				Records and match by PIK

- Internal Revenue Service (IRS) 1040 files
- Address as of April 15, 2002 (Y1)
- Address as of April 15, 2003 (Y2)
- Number of exemptions – filer, spouse, child, parent
- Social Security Numident File
- Collapse records to Census Numident Person Characteristics File (PCF)
- File contains modeled age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin for all persons with an SSN

## Step 2:	Assign Characteristics:		Return Based Methodology

- Age
- Filer and spouse exemptions are assigned filer’s age from PCF
- Child exemptions are assigned to a 19 and under age category
- Parent exemptions are assigned to a 65+ age category
- Sex
- Filer is assigned filer’s sex from PCF
- Spouse exemption is assigned opposite sex of filer
- Child and parent exemptions are assigned sex by random number generator

## Step 2:	Assign Characteristics:		Return Based Methodology 			(cont.)

- Race and Hispanic origin
- Filer, spouse, child, and parent exemptions are all assigned filer’s race and Hispanic origin from PCF

## Step 2:	Assign Characteristics:		Person-Level

- Age, sex, race, Hispanic origin assigned directly from match to PCF
- Migration status assigned directly from Y1-Y2 FIPs code matche

## Step 3	Assign Migration Status:		Compare FIPS code Y1-			Y2

- Y1 and Y2 FIPS codes
- 	Return Based
- Filer, spouse, child, and parent exemptions are all assigned filer’s Y1 and Y2 state and county FIPS codes
- Person Based
- Filer matched across Y1-Y2
- Spouse matched across Y1-Y2
- All dependents matched across Y1-Y2

## Step 4:	Migration Scenario

| 2001 |  |  | 2002 | 2003 |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Type of Exemption | Age | State | Status | Type of Exemption | Age | State |

| Spouse | 56 | NJ | Same | Divorce | 58 | MA |
| Daughter | 14 | NJ | Same | Daughter | 16 | MA |
| Son | 20 | NJ | Same | Son | 22 | NJ |
| Son | 20 | NJ | Same | Student | 22 | WI |

## Step 5:	Migration Scenario

| 2001 -  202 |  |  | 2002 - 2003 |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Type of Exemption | Age | Migration Status | Type of Exemption | Age | Migration Status |
| Filer | 65 | nonmover | Filer  | 66 | nonmover |
| Spouse | 65 | nonmover |  |  |  |
| Daughter | < = 19 | nonmover |  |  |  |
| Son | <= 19 | nonmover | Son | Age <= 19 | nonmover |
| Son | <= 19 | nonmover |  |  |  |

## Step 4:	Compare Outcome – 			Return vs People Base

- Migration 2001 – 2002
- Return Based
- 	Filer		64
- 	Spouse	64
- 	Exemption	19 or younger

## Snoopy: An Assistant to the Hydrologic Program Leader

***Snoopy: An Assistant to the Hydrologic Program Leader***
***Mike Callahan – Senior Service Hydrologist, Louisville, KY***

- Why Snoopy?
- Snoopy was designed to overcome some of the limitations of the standard WHFS applications such as HydroBase, HydroView, etc. Snoopy is a graphical front end to the PostgreSQL database manager and the SQL language. It also has on-line help to aid the SQL novice and contains a data dictionary for the IHFS database.

- Data Lists
- It takes six steps to display the phone number of an observer using HydroView. You must repeat many of these steps to look at another phone number. Using Snoopy takes only one step and all the phone numbers are displayed in a scrolling window. Many different lists can be developed which combine data from multiple tables. This lets the forecaster or HMT see the data they need in the hydrologic database without giving them the ability to edit tables as one does with HydroBase. The user does not need to know any SQL. This example displays flood contact phone numbers:

- SQL Learning Aids
- Snoopy is a good SQL teacher. First, the user can see all the tables, columns, and data in any database without SQL. In the case of the IHFS database, a description of every table and column is included. Second, the program includes a “Query Maker” which sets up a typical query. Third, a pop-up window with sample SQL commands and syntax is available. Using these tools, one can learn SQL quickly and easily.

- Ad Hoc Queries & Global Editing
- With a knowledge of SQL, Snoopy allows the hydrologic program manager to answer questions about their hydrologic service area, and to make global edits to their data. These examples, show the SQL commands to  display a list of data collection platforms owned by the USGS that do not report hourly and to assign IND as the secondary backup office for every point in the LMK hydrologic service area:

- Linux Support
- Any query and data list can be saved as a Linux file. This makes it easy to create, test, and include queries into scripts. Also, queries and data can be printed out. Data will be printed in a smaller font and rotated to landscape mode if necessary.

# Presentation: 345257

## A sample of advanced energy code requirements from the NW

- Chuck Murray
- Washington State University Extension Energy Program

## My parameters

- ASHRAE 90.1  - 2004
- IECC proposed 2006
- WSEC 2004
- Seattle 2004
- All my examples Zone 4 marine/ Zone 5.

## Commercial: Slab on Grade6000 SF / 20% Glazing to above grade wall area

## Commercial: With Basement6000 SF + basement 20% Glazing to above grade wall area

## Ground Contact Insulation

- Probably a good idea anywhere the winter ground temp is less than 52 degrees.
- This has been held up by ASHRAE 90.1 process

## Dorm

## Define Residential

- When compared commercial, residential has low internal gains
- IECC needs to develop a specific multi-family path for structures > 3 stories
- IECC needs to address high rise multi-family construction
- 	Complex systems like concrete platform construction, or highly glazed construction needs specific guidance.
- .

## HVAC

- Economizers:
- 	OK, Economizers  aren’t good in hot-humid climates....
- 	IECC: > 65,000 _54,000_ BTU
- 	IECC: no limit on number of units
- 	WSEC:
- 	If outdoor air is accessible > 20,000 BTU
- 	If outdoor is in not easily accessible > 54,000 BTU
- 	Seattle: Total Capacity of Units without Economizer 240,000 BTU or 10% of total units.

## Part Load HVAC Requirements

- Fan Power > 10 HP
- 	*IECC >25 *_*10*_* HP*
- Seattle: ECM motors required on VAV series terminals.
- Oregon: Pumps > 10 HP

## Lighting Controls

- Occupancy Sensors
- 	WSEC, Oregon: All classrooms, meeting and conference rooms and offices < 300 SF

## Mumps Outbreak – United States, 2006

**Epidemiology and Prevention of Vaccine-Preventable Diseases**
**National Immunization Program**
**Centers for Disease Control and Prevention**

**Revised January 2007**

## Mumps Outbreak, 2006

**Source of the initial cases unknown**
**Outbreak peaked in mid-April**
**Median age of persons reported with mumps was 22 years**
**Highest incidence was among young adults 18-24 years of age, many of whom were college students **
**Transmission of mumps virus occurred in many settings, including college dormitories and healthcare facilities **

## Slide 3

## Factors Contributing To Mumps Outbreak, 2006

**College campus environment**
**Lack of a 2-dose MMR college entry requirement or lack of enforcement of a requirement**
**Delayed recognition and diagnosis of mumps**
**Mumps vaccine failure**
**Vaccine might be less effective in preventing asymptomatic infection or atypical mumps than in preventing parotitis**
**Waning immunity **

## Mumps Diagnostic Testing

**Serum to test for mumps IgM  antibody within 5 days of illness onset**
**A swab from the parotid duct or other affected salivary gland duct**
**Parotid duct swab is the preferred viral sample  **

## Mumps Diagnostic Testing

**If the IgM antibody titer is negative, a second (convalescent) serum specimen for IgM antibodies should be obtained 2 to 3 weeks after onset of the illness**
**Paired serum specimens also can be used to detect a significant rise in the level of mumps IgG  **

## Mumps Diagnostic Testing

**Negative laboratory tests, especially in vaccinated persons, should not be used to rule out a mumps diagnosis**
**In the absence of another diagnosis, persons meeting the clinical case definition should be reported as a probable mumps case**

## Presumptive Evidence of Mumps Immunity

**Documentation of adequate vaccination**
**Laboratory evidence of immunity**
**Birth before 1957**
**Documentation of physician-diagnosed mumps **

## Presumptive Evidence of Mumps Immunity

**Adequate vaccination**
**1 dose for preschool-aged children and adults not at high risk of exposure to mumps**
**2 doses school-aged children grades (K-12****th**** grade) and for adults at high risk of exposure to mumps **

## Mumps Vaccination ofHealthcare Personnel

**Born in 1957 or later**
**documentation of 2 doses of live mumps virus vaccine (minimum interval between doses is 28 days)**
**Born before 1957 (without a history of physician-diagnosed mumps or laboratory evidence of mumps immunity)**
**consider recommending 1 dose of a live mumps virus vaccine **

## Mumps Vaccination ofHealthcare Personnel

**During a mumps outbreak healthcare facilities should strongly consider recommending 2 doses of mumps vaccine to unvaccinated personnel born before 1957 who do not have evidence of mumps immunity **

- Detours

- On a time-sharing system, a process is interrupted at any time.

- kernel service
- scheduler,memory management,network subsystem,etc
- other process
- etc
- cache miss, TLB miss

- Detour is time period not for a target process, which contains

## detour recorder

-   prev = current;
-   if( current – prev > precision ) {
-     array.push_back(prev);
-     array.push_back(current);
-   }
- }

- rdtsc() is called frequently
- Some experimental results,
- Running code at
-  BG/L IO node
-  700MHz PowerPC
-  Linux 2.4.19 based kernel
- rdtsc() is called every 0.1usec
- Minimum detour activety
- is 1.8 usec, which is timer update.
- If array is 2000 in size(1000 detours),
- it can record approx. 10 sec.

## Slide 1

**Notes:**
Bandelier is also home to a wide range of reptiles and a few amphibians.  Bullsnake (top left), Bullfrog (top right), Great Plains Skink (bottom left), Whip Snake (bottom right).

## Slide 2

**Notes:**
Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes are large, handsome but poisonous reptiles.

## Slide 3

**Notes:**
Their main food is small mammals such as mice or pocket gophers.

## Slide 4

**Notes:**
Many people fear rattlesnakes but  usually they pose very little threat.  If you encounter a rattlesnake be sure to give them plenty of room to escape.

## Slide 5

**Notes:**
They may even warn you by rattling their tails.  That means keep your distance.

## Slide 6

**Notes:**
Rattlesnakes can be active from early spring (if the day is warm enough) right through mid autumn.

## Slide 7

**Notes:**
Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes can be distinguished from other rattlesnakes by the alternating black and white strips just above their rattles.

## Slide 8

**Notes:**
Rattlesnakes have many benefits to the environment in which they live.  Just keep an eye (and an ear) watchful so you don’t have a negative encounter.

## Federal Railroad AdministrationRoadway Worker ProtectionDelivering Results

## Roadway Worker Fatalities

- Total = 73

- Note – Fatalities are only those linked to the RWP regulation.  Statistics do not include other engineering employee fatalities such as bridge worker, highway accidents, crane accidents, falls from equipment, death by natural cause, etc.

## Severe Engineering InjuriesJanuary-December

**Notes:**
This is from the SOFA analysis project

## Roadway Worker FatalitiesAverage Fatalities per Year

- Pre-Rule

- Post-Rule

## Roadway Worker FatalitiesType of Incident 1997-2004

- Total 20 fatalities

**Notes:**
Other = vehicle operated beyond authority limits.

## Roadway Worker FatalitiesType of Incidents

- Post Rule 1997-2004 (20 fatalities)

- Pre-Rule 1986-1996 (53 fatalities)

**Notes:**
For 1997 – 2004

Red = Four (20%) of incidents - workers struck by trains on an adjacent track; 
Blue = Six incidents (30%) - workers walked into the path of a train

These two categories combined (ten incidents) pertained to 	workers who entered the fouling space of an adjacent track in 	error or crossed in front of moving train/on-track equipment.  This accounts for 50 percent of the fatalities since 1997. 

Note the slight increase in adjacent track from 17% to 20%

Other = e.g, vehicle operated beyond authority limits.

## Roadway Worker FatalitiesType Railroad

- Pre-Rule 1986-1996 (53 fatalities)

- Post Rule 1997-2004 (20 fatalities)

- Note: passenger = commuter and Amtrak

**Notes:**
Note the increase in passenger pre to post regulation

## Roadway Worker FatalitiesTime of Year (Calendar Year)

- Pre-Rule 1986-1996 (53 fatalities)

## New Climate Observations Introduced

- FY2004 Target: 275 new ARGO floats deployed;
- FY2004 Actual:  529 ARGO floats, 792 total ocean observing platforms

- FY2004 Actual

**Cumulative observing platforms deployed**

## Reduce the Error in Global Measurements of Sea Surface Temperature

- Long-term Target: Error of 0.2 °C by 2008

- Expanding the in situ network will minimize the satellite bias error, enabling more accurate global sea surface temperature from a combination of satellite and in situ measurements

- Note: this measure is proposed as a new GPRA for FY2006; it is already reported on quarterly

- Satellite bias error: the systematic difference between satellite-derived vs. in situ measurements of sea surface temperature

- FY2004 actual
