City Council Water & Sewer Subcommittee <br />May 15, 2003 <br />Page 26 <br /> <br />the water treatment plant from more than 20 years and he does not feel <br />qualified to make these types of recommendations without getting the input of <br />qualified engineers and qualified operators. He said he was comfortable with <br />the operation and he could see results. He said he knew what the operation <br />was, and he knows what it is now. Chairman Plata said he knew maintenance <br />and he knows for a fact that he has dealt with heavy equipment the type that is <br />used at the water treatment plant, the pumps and valves. Chairman Plata said <br />that cannot take that long. Mr. Campbell said these maintenance workers go <br />out under the spray field where the city deposes of the sludge. He said that <br />Greenville landfills their sludge and wanted to know how long the EPA is going <br />to let them keep land filling their sludge. He answered the question by saying <br />not very long. He said that their permit in Greenville is up for renewal. <br /> <br />Chairman Plata said at the water treatment plant you have one supervisor, an <br />operator IV, two operator III's and five operator II's for a total of eight <br />employees. What he is suggesting is the city go with shifts with one operator <br />on each shift for a total of four shifts. You will have one straight day operator <br />and one supervisor, you will have one Maintenance IV, one II! level <br />maintenance, two level II maintenance, and one level I maintenance for a total <br />of seven. If you put these employees on shifts along with the operators, then <br />you will have two people on a shift all the time around the clock. Mr. <br />Campbell said they did not need maintenance workers on all shifts. Chairman <br />Plata said that at the Sewer Treatment Plant you have one supervisor, you have <br />three level IV operators, four level III operators, four level II operators, and one <br />level I operator for a total of nine employees. <br /> <br />Chairman Plata said he was proposing the same thing: one shift operator, and <br />on maintenance you have one level II maintenance worker, you have three II <br />level maintenance workers, you have three level II maintenance workers, and <br />you have six level ! maintenance workers and you go to four shifts, one worker <br />per shift. He said that way you will have two people out there around the clock <br />and two straight maintenance workers in the daytime. He said you will have <br />a total of 6 maintenance personnel and they will work at both places especially <br />when there is work to do. He said you could let one be at the water treatment <br /> <br /> <br />
