A: commencing either the second Fri in Aug or the following Friday if the first wknd doesn't fall on regularly scheduled wknd...

This language refers to which Friday it will be, either 1) the second Fri in Aug OR

2) the following Friday

Then, the language states, 'if the first wknd doesn't fall on regularly scheduled wknd...'. This language is separate from the language up above in #1 or #1. So, it is either Aug 11 or Aug 18 ( if the first wknd doesn't fall on regularly scheduled wknd...)

If this does not answer your question, I would suggest you contact the person or persons who put the language into the document.
