2001 Budget Analysis: Technology, Trade, and Commerce Agency (2920)
$5 million (on a one-time basis) to increase the number of grants.
$1 million for the regional technology alliances (RTAs), nonprofit organizations that administer the program for the agency.
$113,000 for additional grant audits, which are currently performed by the Department of Finance (DOF).
$50,000 for outreach and communications—such as attendance at regional events, Web site design and maintenance, and miscellaneous expenses like postage.

This proposal lacks firm plans for the proposed funding. First, according to the agency, as much as $1.5 million of the $5 million for additional grants may be set aside for four existing
university-affiliated institutes that provide small technology-related businesses access to research and development activities. (These institutes are located at the California Institute of
Technology; University of Southern California; University of California, San Diego; and University of California, Berkeley.) It is not clear what specific activities this would entail or how the
funds would be allocated. Similarly, the agency states that the RTA funding is for administrative costs and expanding the "geographical coverage of the RTA network" by establishing new
centers. The agency mentions Sacramento, the San Joaquin Valley, and the Inland Empire as areas that are underserved by the existing RTAs. However, the agency has not made a specific
RTA proposal to justify the requested funds.
With respect to the outreach and communications request, funding for these items should come from the program's or agency's existing allocations. In particular, we note that the agency
received funding and positions in the current year for Web site development. With respect to the auditing request, the current auditing performed by DOF should be sufficient. Thus, the request
for additional audit funds is not necessary.
Given the concerns discussed above, especially the lack of definite plans for the proposed funding, we recommend that the Legislature delete the $6.2 million request.

NASA, Industry to Start Designing More Sustainable Jet Engine Core - NASA
Cross section of a typical turbofan jet engine highlights parts of the core HyTEC will work to advance. These include the high-pressure compressor, combustor, high pressure turbine, and power extraction components.
NASA

What Comes Next
Phase 2 builds on Phase 1 to create a compact core for ground testing that proves HyTEC’s capabilities.
“Phase 2 is very complex. It’s not just a core demonstration,” Nerone said. “What we’re creating has never been done before, and it involves many different technologies coming together to form a new type of engine.”
Technologies tested in the HyTEC program will help enable a much higher bypass ratio, hybridization, and compatibility with sustainable aviation fuels.
The bypass ratio describes the relationship between the amount of air flowing through the engine core compared to the amount of air bypassing the core to flow around it.
By decreasing the core size while increasing the size of the turbofan it powers – while maintaining the same thrust output — the HyTEC concept would use less fuel and reduce carbon emissions.
“HyTEC is an integral part of our RISE program,” said Kathleen Mondino, who helps lead RISE program technologies at GE Aerospace. “GE Aerospace and NASA have a long history of collaboration to advance the latest aviation technologies. The HyTEC program builds on this relationship to help chart the future of more sustainable flight.”
Another piece of the puzzle is hybridization. HyTEC’s hybrid-electric capability means the core will also be augmented by electrical power to further reduce fuel use and carbon emissions.
“This engine will be the first mild hybrid-electric engine, and hopefully, the first production engine for airliners that is hybrid-electric,” Nerone said.

FTB Publication 1017 | FTB.ca.gov
If a partnership has received a federal extension to file the partnership information return (IRS Form 1065, U.S. Partnership Return of Income), does this extension also apply to the filing of Form 592-F? 
No. Partnerships must have received an approval to extend the due date to file IRS Form 8804 (Section 1446), on IRS Form 2758, Application for Extension of Time to File Certain Excise, Income, Information, and Other Returns. 
134. What should the partnership do if the partnershipâs estimation of the allocable income for withholding results in an amount being over-withheld at year end based on the partnershipâs actual allocable income? 
When the partnership files Form 592-F, it can either request that the excess credits be applied to the next yearâs withholding liability or be refunded.
Withholding Agent Liability and Penalty
135. Is interest assessed on late payments of withholding?
Yes. The law requires the assessment of interest on late payments of withholding. Interest is computed from the due date of the withholding payment to the date paid. The imposition of interest is not a penalty. It is compensation to the state for the loss of the use of funds.
136. What is the withholding agentâs liability for failure to remit withholding?
We assess a liability for failure to remit withholding. Any person, including the withholding agent, who fails to remit or under remits withholding is liable for the greater of:

The amount actually withheld, plus interest.
The amount of taxes due from the nonresident, but not more than the amount required to be withheld, plus interest.

(R&TC Sections 18662 and 18668)
137. What is the penalty for failing to file complete, correct, and timely information returns (Form 592, Form 592-F, or Form 592-PTE)?
The penalty for the withholding agent is calculated per payee. For information returns filed before 01/01/2016 to 12/31/2019, the penalty is:

$30 if filed 1 to 30 days after the due date.

 Eligible Applicants
 

Eligible applicants include:

Local, state, and federal agencies including federal land management agencies;
Universities;
Special districts;
Native American tribes;
Private forest landowners; and
Non-profit 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(6) organizations (e.g., fire safe councils, land trusts)


 GHG Reduction Requirements
 

Forest Health projects must further the regulatory goals of the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. 
Applicants will be required to include a quantitative estimate of the net GHG benefit in terms of metric tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per the  Forest Health Quantification Methodology (QM) and Calculator Tool.

In this case, applicants must provide a justifiable qualitative description of how the activity will ultimately result in emissions reductions, further quantitative assessment of GHG impacts, or improve management actions or policy.


 Required Scale of Forest Health Projects
 


 Forest Health projects must focus on large, landscape-scale forestlands composed of one or more landowners, which may cover multiple jurisdictions. Large landscapes will usually include watersheds, firesheds, or larger logical management units. The total project area should aim to be no less than 800 acres in size; landscape units do not have to be contiguous.
 


 Funding Limits
 


 Eligible Forest Health projects must be large capacity, landscape-scale, with multiple benefits. The minimum grant amount requested for management activity projects should be no less than $750,000, with a maximum allowable request of $7 million.
 


 Project Readiness
 

Projects awarded with funding from the 2022/2023 fiscal year must be able to complete grant-related work by March 31, 2029.
Preference is given to projects that have environmental compliance (CEQA, NEPA, etc.) completed before the project application is submitted.

Stand-Up Paddleboarding in Sonoma County 
Paddleboarders will prefer to visit these parks on summer weekdays for a quieter, less-congested experience.
See Regional Parks' Paddling the Russian River page for paddling distances and times. 
Paddleboarding at Spring Lake
Another of Menth's paddling recommendations is Spring Lake Regional Park, with its placid water and beautiful views of northeast Santa Rosa. (See photo at top of page.) Spring Lake is ideal for beginning paddleboarders because of its convenient location and compact size. 
Paddlers at Spring Lake likely will share the lake with other SUP'ers and kayakers, which gives beginners peace of mind. Seasonal paddleboard rentals are available at the concession near the park's swimming lagoon (Violetti Road entrance) daily through the summer. 
If you have your own paddleboard, Spring Lake can be a destination for year-round paddling.
Paddleboarding on Bodega Bay

Menth recommends Doran Regional Park on Bodega Bay for more experienced paddlers only. Doran is on a long spit of sand with the open bay on one side and Bodega Harbor on the other. Paddlers can ply their craft on either side. Menth said some might prefer the harbor side because it offers destinations like the marinas, the mudflats and Bodega Bay's businesses and restaurants.
Paddlers considering Doran Beach should pay careful attention to the weather. “Paddlers need to be informed about wind, tide and surf conditions. All must be favorable and calm to have an enjoyable experience. The ocean temperature demands a wetsuit for the beginner, but an experienced paddler who doesn’t intend to spend a lot of time in the water probably won’t need one in summer and early fall.”
Bodega Bay Surf Shack is another local outfitter for paddling Bodega Harbor, and its paddleboard rentals include wetsuits and lessons. 

For more information about visiting Sonoma County's lakes, river and coast, go to the Find a Park page.

Sex Offender Registry	

The Madison County Sheriff's Office is providing information to the community, about certain convicted sex offenders, in accordance with New York State Corrections Law, Article 6-C, entitled Sex Offender Registration Act (SORA). SORA became effective in January 1996. SORA is New York's version of New Jersey's "Megan's Law." Megan Kanka was a young girl, living in New Jersey, who was raped and murdered by a twice convicted sex offender, who was living in Megan's neighborhood. SORA mandates that certain convicted sex offenders must register with the Division of Criminal Justice Services in Albany and/or the local law enforcement agency.It is important to understand that SORA has limitations. The law does not require that all convicted sex offenders register. In addition, many sex offenses go unreported. Therefore, there could be a sex offender living in your neighborhood and the authorities would not know it.The information contained in the Sex Offender Registry is constantly changing. Therefore, the Madison County Sheriff's Office does not make any express or implied warranties concerning the accuracy of the information in the Registry.

 
 
 

http://www.sheriffalerts.com/ny/madisonWe are pleased to provide the OffenderWatch® service for the citizens of our community. OffenderWatch is the nation’s leading sex offender registry network, which enables us to manage registered sex offenders in our community. With the free OffenderWatch family safety app and this website, you get the most accurate and up-to-date information available about sex offenders in our area.To Download the App: https://offenderwatch.com/owapp/The first link allows residents to search for offenders and/or register for email alerts.The second link is for residents to download and put on their phone and their child’s phone (OffenderWatch App) so if that child is getting calls, texts, emails from a sex offender, it will alert the parent.
The Superior Court of California - County of Ventura - Guardianship
The Ventura Courts Self-help Legal Access Center can assist you in completing the forms, but you will need to type them yourself. 
 Plan on spending at least one and a half to two hours completing the forms, since they are fairly extensive. Typewriters are available in the courts law library.
If the need for appointment of a guardian is urgent, and the hearing cannot wait the fifteen days required for a noticed hearing, the petition 
 can be brought on an ex parte basis, but the petitioner will have to demonstrate to the court that a true emergency exists.
Serving Notice
The natural parents of the minor need to be notified of the initial hearing on the petition for appointment of a temporary guardian, and all 
 relatives in the second degree need to be notified of the hearing on the appointment of a general guardian. These relatives include grandparents, 
 aunts and uncles and adult siblings of the minor. Notice must be given by someone other than the petitioner or proposed guardian. It must be a 
 disinterested person, over the age of 18.If the initial hearing is on an ex parte, or emergency basis, notice can be given to the natural parents 
 by telephone, and the declaration form re: ex parte notice must be completed and filed with the court.
Removal or Resignation of Guardian
If a guardian wishes to be removed or resign, but the guardianship is to continue with another guardian in place, the new proposed guardian 
 needs to be approved by the court and appointed on a temporary basis, before the general guardianship will change. A petition to resign may be 
 heard at the same time as the hearing on appointment of the general guardian.
Termination of Guardian
A guardianship may be terminated if the court finds it is in the best interests of the minor. The natural parent or parents may petition for 
 termination of the guardianship, and the court will make a decision based on the investigation report prepared by the courtâs investigator. 
 Forms for petitioning for termination of a guardianship are available in the court Clerkâs office.

For more information on Guardianship, visit the California Courts Self-Help Center.
