Action Item. ACTION ITEM is a state used when Marconi has unofficially agreed to do something for the customer to enhance customer satisfaction as a result of this complaint. Until this item(s) are completed, the CPR will reside in the ACTION ITEM state. Once the Action Item(s) have been completed, the CPR will be transitioned into the CREL state. The CPR Administrator will transition the CPR into the CREL state, per instruction by the CPR Chairman. Severity level should be minor at this point (for counting purposes). The TL9000 clock is turned off during the Action Item state.
Action Item. Haseen will locate the document that provides the rationale for many of the existing sites and provide to Howie. Action Item: Xxxx-Xxx will send the spreadsheet. - There is some discussion as to whether it is more beneficial to have stations funded from within vs by other departments. - An important note is that NL had a very significant event (Hurricane Xxxx) in the fall of 2010; this provides important justification for the program. - There was some discussion around the outcomes of the “bilateral agreements”. - Xxxx-Xxx provided a short presentation on the options that have been presented to PEI for consideration; it was felt that these options should also be presented to NL even though the current structure is satisfactory to both parties. Action Item: Xxxx-Xxx will forward the presentation to Xxxxxx and Bob. Action Item: Xxxxxx and Bob will review the presentation and get back to Xxxx- Xxx if necessary. - The Hydrometric Workstation is being implemented throughout the country; it will be available in the Atlantic region sometime in November or December. - Xxxx-Xxx is planning on retiring in December 2011; the scenario for replacement is unknown. - Xxxx Xxxxxxx is also getting close to retirement. Action Item: Xxxx-Xxx will discuss the Annual Report with Xxxxxx. Action Item: Bob will provide provincial hydrology to Xxxx-Xxx. - The second version of the cost model is almost completed; it is comparable from one province to another; it was presented to AB and they thought it was a good resource. Action Item: Xxxx-Xxx will provide a cost estimate; it will include indirect costing. - There was some brief discussion on some of the upgrades completed since Hurricane Xxxx. - Xxxx-Xxx and Xxxxx have recently spent a significant amount of time going over the Igor measurements; it would be very beneficial to have it peer reviewed by the province (ie: modeling). Action Item: Bob will ask Xxx to run the data through a model. - Xxxx-Xxx confirmed with Xxxxx/Bob that WSC will continue to collect the grab samples in Labrador as in previous years; this will be reassessed annually. - There was brief discussion on some of the new stations that will be installed this fiscal year. Xxxxx and Xxxxx will meet next week to discuss in more detail.
Action Item. ENVC will incorporate the logic used in the test application to exclude comma in the exported Access file. Calculator Code Index Period - There must be a column named “IndexPeriod” in the input file if the reporting year is based on IndexPeriod Column. - The word “IndexPeriod” should not have any space in between. - The text “Use IndexPeriod Column” next to the radio button will be more appropriate than “Index Period” in order to clarify the user when IndexPeriod option is selected.
Action Item. ENVC needs to identify whether making change in text will affect the code behind and modify the text appropriately. UserGuideline: Variable_id and Unit_id Validation - EC agrees with the idea of the modified changes to the Calculator that would correct invalid variable_id/unit_id. - A pop up/warning message will be displayed when incorrect variable_id/unit_id exists in the UserGuideline. An example of the message can be “You have changed units! Please ensure that all corresponding input data has been manually converted.” Action Item: ENVC will make the required modification to add the warning message. Detection Limit Keyword - Different types of keywords for detection limits will be used to store into the exported CESI Access database after computation of confidence interval. This modification will highlight the type of detection limit used by the user when the confidence interval is computed. Since the Access database structure created by Xxxxx allows two letters for the detection limit method, the following values will be used: « DL » if the method of replacement uses the value of the Detection Limit « HF » if the method of replacement uses the value of Half the Detection Limit « ZR » if the method of replacement uses the value Zero Action Item: ENVC will incorporate the changes in the VB code to store all the different types of detection limits when confidence interval is stored. Database Person responsible for the CESI Database - Xxxxx has been appointed to other projects and is no long working on the Atlantic ENVIRODAT and updating the CESI Calculator data (data exported to Access Database) into the EC Database (Enterprise database for EC). - The new person responsible for the CESI Calculator database (Access and Enterprise) will be Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx who is an IM/IT person for EC. Xxxxx has briefed Xxxxxxxxx on the CESI Calculator database (Access and Enterprise). There is a possibility of Xxxxxxxxx visiting NL sometime in the future in order to have face-to-face meeting with NL staff related to Atlantic ENVIRODAT and CESI Access Database.
Action Item. EC will incorporate the change within the next three week to facilitate the completion of the project within the proposed time frame (end of December). Journal Paper on the CESI WQI Calculator - EC agreed about the possibility of publishing a journal paper which would detail all the concepts used in the CESI WQI Calculator (Export to Access Database, Web Services, and Confidence Interval).
Action Item. Xxxxx will discuss the concept of a journal article with Xxxx Xxxxxxxx. Meeting Minutes Federal/Provincial Technical Meeting – Data Management November 22-23, 2011 EA Boardroom (Dept of Environment & Conservation) St. John’s, NL Attendance: Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx-Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Brake Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Welcome and Introductions Xxxxx welcomed everyone to the meeting and led introductions.
Action Item. GMRP and GMOB to work on public messaging regarding the extraction of the samples for the GMOB Research Program. Xxx X: Not to make light of any of that, it is just I find it, I guess you can say a little bit funny sometimes when I reflect on working there and working with the arsenic. I ran a couple of pilot projects on purification. Anyway, when I think back to the way we worked and handled this stuff and the way it was handled on the site in addition to other stuff, I look at the heightened awareness or concern or potential public concern, and again, I don’t want to make light of it, but it is quite a contrast to the way things used to be when the mine was operational. I understand it, but it sometimes makes me step back and reflect. It is quite a contrast in perception. It is the same as the Remediation Project itself. The amount of effort and the work that has gone into this Project compared to the mine on the south side of town, which is all but done now except for the water treatment, it is an interesting contrast in approaches to these sites. Anyway, enough said about that. Thank you for that, Xxxx and Xxx. Next, from a whole different perspective, I will turn it over to Xxxxxx.
