not push this on state NFIP Coordinators, few if any programs could absorb this. This should be a separate statement. Dam Safety programs have nothing to do with CAP grants, LOMR submissions, etc. S.5. Redesign CAP and delegation programs to emphasize building state and local capability instead of simply buying state services One thing they need to do is adjust the grant cycle for CAP-SSSE – it is now out of sync, and states wait for 6-9 months into the year before they get an award – for that year. They need to fund for two years so that this grant can be in the same timeframe as the CTP grants. S. 6. Negotiate CAP participation individually with each state with each change of state administration, and require governor-level commitment from state, using many forms of federal funding as an incentive S.7. Same as to: States need to upgrade their entire programs: regulations, coordination, policies on where state emergency management funds are spent, their mitigation efforts, etc. There should be some minimum standards for state programs, which ASFPM should work with states/feds to create and promote. These are highly judgmental statements and not that accurate. More than 10 years ago I was supported by this program and we negotiated the workplans annually. I supported FEMA HQ on CAP and it’s highly customized. Suggest reworking these to positive tweaks rather than a negative tone. Some states do not have the political will to do what is suggested, but still implement strong NFIP support to local communities. S.8. Allow states to allocate up to 50% of CAP funding to state-selected non NFIP, but effective flood loss reduction activities (not projects) Don’t the fees come from flood insurance? If it is not NFIP it should not be funded! Unless I am missing something here! WHY NOT EFFECTIVE PROJECTS? such as education and outreach on other flood hazards. To ensure that these additional activities would be in keeping with the origination of the CAP funding (Flood Insurance Fund), these additional activities may need to be tied to flood insurance claims/loss reduction for the state. Recommendation to delete completely (x2): The funds to support CAP come from the fees associated with the sale of flood insurance. ASFPM should not support this recommendation. S.9. Tie CAP funding to NFIP and flood disaster reduction-related needs and add annual increases
Create financial incentives for communities that are taking additional flood-risk and floodplain management measures through more favorable cost-sharing for disaster assistance and other federal grants. Use FEMA Community Rating System or another similar community rating approach and establish sliding-scale for grants to provide incentives. [Congress, Administration, FEMA, HUD, USACE, DOT, EPA, others] (was 16.(b), with modified 16.(a)).) More favorable federal cost-sharing to incentivize flood risk management. Federal grants programs should be structured to reward those communities that go beyond the minimum requirements to reduce risks and costs of disasters. This would also serve to incentivize communities to take greater responsibility for flood hazard mitigation as it affects their own development and resiliency. Use FEMA Community Rating System or another similar community rating approach and establish sliding-scale for grants to provide incentives. Revise and implement federal agency Guidelines to reflect the new Principles and Requirements for Federal Investments in Water Resources to include resilience and sustainability; account for all benefits; provide greater emphasis on nonstructural approaches; and to balance economic, social and environmental concerns. [Council on Environmental Quality, working with federal water resources agencies] (was P.9) Revise and implement Guidelines reflecting new Principles and Requirements. In WRDA 2007 (Sec. 2031), Congress directed a substantial revision and modernization of the federal planning procedures for water resources development projects. The revision process has progressed, but needs to be completed and implemented. Congress should eliminate annual rider from Energy and Water Development appropriations bills that restricts participation by USACE in finalizing and implementing an updated P&R. Enable and support federal interagency and interdepartmental water policy coordinating mechanisms to implement the Principles, Requirements and Guidelines for Federal Investments in Water Resources. [Congress, Administration, FIFM-TF] (was P.8) Support coordinating mechanisms to implement Principles and Requirements. For decades it has been increasingly apparent from a wide range of audits and studies and that greater coordination among federal water agencies and programs is necessary; this is heightened by concerns about climate change and rising sea-levels. Such coordination is especially necessary in economic and environmental planning and evaluation for water resources development and for finalizing and implementing new Principles, Requirements, and Guidelines, required by WRDA 2007. The Administration has reestablished the FIFM-TF, which can assist,

8.9 Discussion TBD 8.10 Reporting Format Ideally, the results of testing to assess Throughput or Capacity with X% Loss should be presented using a Figure with a two-dimensional graph. The title of the graph shall include the metric name(s) and the Units of the y-axis (such as Throughput in Frames per second). The Units of the x-axis shall be Frame Size in octets. The Units of the y-axis shall be Frames per second. If the test traffic is bi-directional, then the sum of both traffic directions shall be plotted on the graph for each frame size tested. The y-axis may also present the corresponding bits per second scale, as an option. For tests with variable Frame size [RFC6985], the results shall be plotted according to the average Frame size of the traffic stream (which includes the factors of Frame frequency and Frame size). Along with the measured Frames per second for each Frame size, the Maximum theoretical Frames per second shall be plotted for each Frame size (for simple comparison purposes. The caption of the Figure shall describe all relevant aspects of the test, in sufficient detail to inform a reader and to distinguish each Figure from similar Figures with results from different test conditions conducted as part of the same campaign (such as different test set-ups and protocols used). There shall also be a legend, identifying the benchmark and any other metric-variants plotted. If the graphical results are summarized as a single number, then the result of metric assessment for the smallest Frame size shall be reported, with Units of measure. If the results are summarized in a table, then the example Table below should be used. 8.10-1: Example Throughput Tabular Reporting Requirement number Metric Name Frame Size, octets 64 256 IMIX 1518 Throughput-01 Throughput Capacity with X% Loss The example above assumes IPv4 addresses, and IPv6 addresses would increase the frame size (64 octets becomes 84 octets). 9 Latency 9.1 Background Latency is another key Benchmark for the NFVI. It is valuable to assess the one-way frame transfer time of a SUT at various levels of offered load. This information can assist capacity planning and network engineering when conducted under circumstances relevant to the production network of interest. Trial

Supporting business case For example A business case that demonstrates that revenue versus cost of the proposed network provides a positive return on investment for different take-up scenarios; and See Appendix G – Business Case. [The example Appendix G is highly simplified: the supplier shall include all necessary complexity while maintaining clarity. The supplier shall provide a business case sensitivity analysis considering different take-up scenarios. In its assessment, the NCC assessment will consider both the reasonableness of the take-up scenarios themselves as well as the related business case sensitivity results.] Evidence of sufficient funding availability (including an assumption of any government subsidy where appropriate) to build the network as planned. Evidence of funding is included in Appendix G. [The supplier shall include actual evidence of funding] Planning consents For example: Sample planning consents or applications; and/or The proposed network requires a significant number of new radio masts. As all are in national park areas, they cannot be built under the new notification-based General Permitted Development Order process. As a result planning applications are expected to be needed for all new sites.

country exports. Neither an exchange rate target nor a CPI target would allow the currency to depreciate; both would automatically prevent it by calling for sufficiently tight money. An exchange rate target would not allow the depreciation by definition, while a CPI target would work against it because of the upward effect on import prices that would otherwise result. In both cases, sticking with the announced regime in the aftermath of an adverse trade shock would likely yield an excessively tight monetary policy. A nominal GDP target, by contrast, would allow accommodation of the adverse terms of trade shock: it would call for a monetary policy loose enough to depreciate the currency against the dollar. Under a nominal GDP target, adverse supply shocks are automatically divided between real output loss and inflation. This is what one would want. Figure 1. Supply Shocks are More Frequent in Emerging Markets and Developing Countries Levels, or of Change? There is a potentially important question whether real GDP, the price level, and nominal GDP are to be defined in terms of levels or rates of change. The version of NGDP targeting that has been revived in recent years is often a proposal to target the level of NGDP rather than the rate of change. (Recall that the immediate context, in the case of industrialized countries, is an attempt to achieve monetary expansion even when the nominal interest rate is constrained by the Zero Lower Bound.) The argument is that if the expansion turns out to fall short of the target in the first year, and yet the intentions of the authority are ultimately credible, then the shortfall will automatically generate a further boost to public expectations of coming monetary expansion and inflation, a reduction in the real interest rate, and thereby an accelerated movement toward the target. This argument for targeting the level of NGDP rather than the rate of growth is the same that had been offered earlier for proposals to announce a target for the price level rather than the inflation rate. In both cases, the pro argument is a faster return to the goal, provided the policy is credible. In both cases, the con argument is that the public may not understand, and may not believe, a target phrased in terms of the level of NGDP or the price level, as easily as a target phrased in terms of the rate of growth.

Once a corporation has entered all facilities, the calculations can be manually aggregated to corporation level using the following equation (from section 8.13 of the NGER Measurement Determination): where: is the percentage uncertainty for the total emissions for the registered corporation. are the percentage uncertainties associated with each emission estimate () for each facility. are the estimated emissions from each facility the operational control of the corporation measured in tonnes CO2-e. Alternatively, corporations may then enter the aggregated uncertainty for each facility into a new version of the Uncertainty Calculator. This is a three-step process, as follows: Step 1 (figure 8) - Corporations “Facility 1” in the facility name field, select any Source (e.g. Adipic acid production), Activity (e.g. Adipic acid production), “Method 4” in the Methods drop down, and enter the total emissions (in t CO2-e) in the CO2 field for each facility. This step is repeated for each facility (i.e. each facility has a name of “Facility 1”, the same source, activity and methods as above, and the appropriate emissions for that facility). Any Source and Activity can be chosen, as the use of method 4 will cause the choice to be irrelevant. Adipic acid production is one option, but as good as any other. Figure 8. Example of entering multiple facility-level uncertainties where data exceeds the limits of the calculator: Step 1. Step 2 (figure 9) – Corporations enter the facility-level uncertainty in the Aggregated Uncertainty field for each Emissions Source field for each facility. Figure 9. Example of entering multiple facility-level uncertainties where data exceeds the limits of the calculator: Step 2. Step 3 (figure 10) – The resulting “Assessment of Uncertainty (%)” from the Corporation Output worksheet is the final corporate group level uncertainty, which then needs to be entered into EERS. Figure 10.Example of entering multiple facility-level uncertainties where data exceeds the limits of the calculator: Step 3.
User guide National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Uncertainty Calculator 2015-2016 Purpose Introduction Under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (NGER Act), registered controlling corporations that meet various thresholds are required to report on their greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption and energy production. The Uncertainty Calculator for the 2015-16 reporting year has been developed by the Clean Energy Regulator to assist reporting of statistical uncertainty of scope 1 emissions as required under sections 19, 22G or 22X of the NGER Act. This provides information about how to use the Uncertainty Calculator in reporting uncertainty under the NGER Act. Disclaimer This is for information purposes only. Reporters should refer to Chapter 8 of the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Measurement) Determination 2008 (NGER Determination), and the World Resources Institute and World Business Council of Sustainable Development GHG Protocol Guidance on Uncertainty Assessment in GHG Inventories and Calculating Statistical Parameter Uncertainty (September 2003), version 1.0 (the Uncertainty Protocol), before using the Uncertainty Calculator.
