<br />B. WORK PROGRAM (20 Points) <br /> <br />In the space below, provide a work program for the proposed project, based on <br />specific questions listed in the scoring criteria. Please present your work program in <br />outline form, placing the requested information under each separate task or step <br />identified. Please attach additional pages if needed. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Our Sanitation Department currently goes to the curbsides of residences and <br />processes brush and limbs of trees by using our chipping machines to convert the <br />same to wood chips. We then take the wood chips to our ten (10) acre site in <br />southwest Paris, and they are deposited to make compost. None of the wood chips <br />go into our landfill, which saves the City of Paris over $200,000.00 in landfill costs <br />annually. <br /> <br />Our Public Works Department currently uses a low horsepower tractor to pull <br />the compost turner at our compost site. Our tractor does not have the power <br />needed to properly pull the compost turner and water tank. <br /> <br />We propose purchasing an 80 hp two wheel tractor to pull our compost turner <br />and water tank at the compost site twice a month. Our Public Works employees will <br />spend eight (8) hours per month operating this machine. We estimate that the wood <br />chips would decay and be mature compost in six (6) to eight (8) months using this <br />tractor and compost turner. We would then have more mature compost available to <br />the citizens of Paris and to our Parks Department. <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />.') , <br /> <br />) <br />
