Schedule and process for CTR reports. <br /> A. CTR Program. Not more than six months after the adoption of the ordinance <br /> codified in this chapter, or within six months after an employer qualifies under the <br /> provisions of this chapter, the employer shall develop a CTR program and shall <br /> submit to the city a description of that program for review. <br /> B. CTR Annual Progress Reports. Upon review of an employer's initial CTR <br /> program, the city shall establish the employer's annual reporting date, which shall <br /> not be less than twelve months from the day the program is submitted. Each year <br /> on the employer's reporting date, the employer shall submit to the city the annual <br /> CTR report. <br /> C. Document Review. The city shall provide the employer with written <br /> notification if a CTR program is deemed unacceptable. The notification must give <br /> cause for the rejection. The employer shall have thirty days to resubmit a <br /> modified program. If the employer receives no written notification of extension of <br /> the review period for the CTR program or comment on the CTR program or <br /> annual report within ninety days of submission, the employer's program or annual <br /> report is deemed accepted. The city may extend the review period up to ninety <br /> days. The implementation date for the employer's CTR program will be extended <br /> an equivalent number of days. <br /> D. Modification of CTR Program Elements. Any affected employer may request <br /> that the city allow the modification of CTR program elements, other than the <br /> mandatory elements specified in this chapter, including record keeping <br /> requirements. Such requests may be granted if one of the following conditions <br /> exist: <br /> 1. The employer can demonstrate that it would be unable to comply with the <br /> CTR program elements for reasons beyond the control of the employer; <br /> 2. The employer can demonstrate that compliance with the program elements <br /> would constitute an undue hardship. This may include evidence from employee <br /> surveys administered at the worksite: first, in the base year, showing that the <br /> employer's own base year values of VMT per employee and SOV rates were <br /> higher than the CTR zone average; and subsequently, in the progress year(s) <br /> showing that the employer has achieved reductions from its own base values that <br /> are comparable to the reduction goals established for the employer's CTR zone. <br /> E. Extensions. An employer may request additional time to submit a CTR <br /> program or CTR annual progress report, or to implement or modify a program. <br /> Such requests shall be made in writing no less than thirty days before the due <br /> date for which the extension is being requested. Requests must be made in <br /> writing. Extensions not to exceed ninety days shall be considered for reasonable <br /> causes. The city shall grant or deny the employer's extension request in writing <br /> 18 <br />
