Jim, Toshi, Here is a rewording for the penalty statement. This element (defined below) when present expresses the penalty to be assessed for not meeting an objective. If multiple Penalty statements are present, for example penalty statements expressed per week and per month basis for an availability objective, the longest assessment duration resulting in highest assessment value will be applied. In the above example, multiple weekly violations within a month may result in a higher penalty amount as assessed by the monthly penalty statement rather than the cumulative weekly assessments.
