    COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION STANDARD SPECIFICATION SECTION 105 DISPUTE REVIEW BOARD Brannan Sand and Gravel Co. v. Colorado Department of Transportation DRB FINAL RESOLUTION BACKGROUND Colorado Project No. STA 0404-044 15821R, “Removing Asphalt Mat on West Colfax Avenue and Replacing with a new Hot Mix Asphalt Overlay”, was awarded to Brannan Sand and Gravel Company on August 11, 2008, for $1,089,047.93. The contract incorporated all Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Standard Specifications and Project Special Conditions, including, Standard Specification 109.06: Standard Specification 109.06 Partial Payments. CDOT will make partial payments to the Contractor once each month as the work progresses, when the Contractor is performing satisfactorily under the Contract. Payments will be based upon progress estimates prepared by the Engineer, of the value of work performed, materials placed in accordance with the Contract, and the value of the materials on hand in accordance with the Contract. Revision of Section 109. In September 2006, CDOT, CCA (Colorado Contractors Associations), and CAPA (Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association) formed a joint Task Force at the request of CAPA to evaluate the need for an asphalt cement cost adjustment specification that would be similar to the Fuel Cost Adjustment that was currently being used by CDOT. The result of the Task Force effort was the revision of Standard Specification 109.06 to include the Asphalt Cement Cost Adjustments Subsection. Subsection 109.06, Revision of Section 109, “Asphalt Cement Cost Adjustment When Asphalt Cement is Included in the Bid Price for HMA”, states: _____________________________________________________________ DRB Final Resolution Brannan Sand & Gravel v.

  • IV. Main Achievements

    IV. Main Achievements

    IV. Main achievements Introduction The 2015 Annual Report contained a State by State overview of main achievements since the entry into force of Protocol No. 11 in 1998 (earlier achievements were summarised in the Court’s Annual Report of that year celebrating the Court’s 40th anniversary). The 2016 Annual Report intends to provide additional insights into problems which have more recently come before the Committee of Ministers and led to more important reforms. The present overview thus focuses on reforms reported since the beginning of the Interlaken process in 2010. The individual measures adopted in order to erase the consequences of the violations for the individual applicants are not presented in this overview. In line with the approach in the overview of activities in 2016 (Appendix 5 – Thematic Overview) and that in the country fact sheets (Appendix 9), the presentation is thematic, indicating with respect to each theme the States and cases concerned. In order to provide as up-to-date information as possible, reforms reported are not limited to those accepted in final resolutions in cases closed, but also includes more important progress made in pending cases; references are here to the presentation of the status of execution in HUDOC-EXEC. Nota Bene: Cases cited under a specific theme do not necessarily raise all the issues mentioned in the heading. Similarly, the mention of the closure of supervision of a specific case does not necessarily mean that all problems in the area concerned have been solved. In a number of instances, the Committee of Ministers recognised major progress with respect to the solution of certain aspects of a larger problem by allowing a closure of certain cases of a group related to the aspects solved (“partial closure”).

  • Agencies Finalize New Structure for Resolution Planning

    Agencies Finalize New Structure for Resolution Planning

    ALERT MEMORANDUM October 18, 2019 Agencies Finalize New Structure for Resolution Planning: More Focused & Less Frequent — The Federal Reserve and the FDIC approved a final resolution planning rule (the “Final Rule”) significantly revising the original rule adopted in 2011.1 The Final Rule revamps the 2011 requirements by aligning the timing and certain requirements for resolution planning with the filer’s categorization under the Federal Reserve’s October 10th final tailoring rule. Most significantly, the Final Rule allows all filers to submit more targeted or reduced resolution plans, rather than full plans, in their next submission, generally streamlines content requirements for many filers, and creates new waiver and related procedures that could permit further tailoring of requirements based on the potential systemic significance of different filers. The Final Rule largely adopts the April proposal, but provides important clarifications and procedural improvements. The most significant changes from the proposal are 1) the shift from full to targeted plans for the next submissions and 2) new deadlines and procedures to request waivers or to de-identify critical operations. First, the Agencies confirmed that all firms in Categories I, II, and III will submit targeted plans, rather than full plans, by July 1, 2021.2 Category IV firms must submit reduced plans by July 1, 2022. Second, while the Final Rule did not specify additional substantive tailoring of resolution plan content, the Final Rule clarified the process for seeking waivers of certain content elements and/or de-identification of critical operations. These requests must be filed 18 months before the next due date of the next full resolution plan, and if no decision to grant the requests is provided by 12 months before that due date, the request will be deemed denied.

Critical scholarship has until recently defined this as the context of origin, the reconstructed historical event behind the text. Apart from the difficulty of such reconstructions such an approach ignores the literary- historical reality embodied in the text’s final form.
