ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The Performing Party is required to provide the TCEQ at least an 85% monthly data return from all monitors and samplers. If the 85% data return is not achieved, assignable cause must be identified within a week after each month end.Assignable causes may include acts of nature (tornadoes, hurricanes, hail, etc.),vandalism, or circumstances beyond the control of the Performing Party. Neglect of the site is not an assignable cause. During this contract period, 85% valid data capture must be met for each sampler at each site. For each sampler that does not achieve at least 85%valid data capture during a calendar quarter, reimbursement to the contractor will be reduced by a ratio of 0.25 divided by the number of samplers from which TCEQ is receiving data pursuant to this contract. For example, a reduction of 6.25% or 1/16th if data from one out of four samplers fail 85%valid data capture for a given calendar quarter. Considerations for the proposed reduction of payment will consist of evaluation of the Performing Party's performance of required operating procedures, quality control procedures, and effective and timely communication of non-compliance issues. Non-compliance issues include deviation from the documented procedures in the SOPs, QAPPs, PMIs, and the contract.This price adjustment is cumulative with all other remedies. 9Of13 CITY OF FORT WORTH-PM2.5 TCEQ CONTRACT NUMBER 582-15-50040 AMENDMENT#3 ATTACHMENT B FYIL 7 Cost Budget Cooperative Reimbursement Contract for State Agencies and Local Governments 1.
