The Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is currently establishing more stringent discharge standards. Comment and Explanation This activity is one of the most costly in the departmentdue to the design of the Pollution Control Plant -- it was designed to do a superior job of cleaning the comm- unity's waste water. Comparisons with other plants of similar design indicate that high operating costs are a common characteristic. The Plant reclaims about 2.2 billion gallons of water per year (including ground or rain water which has infiltrated the sanitary system) by removing over 1,700 tons of solids from the water and reducing the biochemical oxygen demand from 200-300 parts per million at influent to about 15 p.p.m. at point of discharge into the river. One potentially costly and difficult problem facing the City in the near future is the search for and establishment of an alternative to the present method of sludge disposal. Account No. 6300 Includes the same personnel contingent budgeted in 1973-74. Due to the strict testing standards established by the EPA, a premium is now being placed on chemists. Efforts.have been made to employ the City's Lab Technician. There- fore, it is proposed to reclassify this position to a higher scale and increase • the salary, effective August 1, of the Plant Supervisor and Lab Technician. 6313 Inflation has driven the price of treatment chemicals to extremely high levels in recent months. 6351 Includes $5,000 for 6390 Includes $2,000 for a pumping equipment. engineering design for plant expansion. new fuel tank and $2,000 for emergency lighting and • .•• Water Ind Sewer 0 & M Fund Detail Chemical Control - 6400 Actual 1972-73 1.1 Estimated Budgeted 1973-74 1974-75 Materials and Supplies 6410 Minor Equipment $ 23 10 25 :1 6313 Chemicals 18 50 50 Total $ 41 60 75 Contract and Maintenance Services 6451 Professional Services $ 5,420 5,800 6,090 6490 Capital Outlay -0- 110 500 Total $ 5,420 $ 5,910 $ 6,590 Grand Total 5,461 $ 5,970 6,665 NARRATIVE Objective Tomonitorand chemically analyze water throughout the water distribution system in order to maintain chemical control of the water. This activity will be increasingly important as Beaver Water is obtained due to the difficulty of retaining a chlorine residual in the Beaver Water since the water users will be farther from the water fil- tration treatment plant. Contract based on $.06 per active meter each January 1. Comment and Explanation Over 450 samples of water are tested yearly for P.H. and chlorine residual. About 570 samples for bacteriological quality. Numerous samples for heavy metals. Answer complaints. Arkansas State Health Department submittals. Account No. 6490 includes $500 for the purchase of A -A Unit lamps for testing for •heavy metals in river samples. Stream sampling, above and below effluent discharge, will be conducted on a regular basis.

Customer accounting is responsible for utility reading, billing and collection. The City had approximately 11,129 water customers as of May. In 1974 and 1975 this section will process approximately 410 new water and sewer accounts, 656 transfers of service, 6500 customer turn -on and off requests, 4700 requests for re -reads and meter tests. This section will issue approximately 6650 miscellaneous receipts and handle an estimated 320 returned checks. The customer accounting and collection section will process approximately 10,000 incoming telephone calls concerning customer services. Key punching utility payments and key punching approximately 15,000 parking tickets and parking ticket payments is also the responsibility of this section. Meter readers are responsible for meter reading, re -reads, and minor repair of water meters. The meter change -out program will continue in 1974-75 as scheduled in 1973-74. Meters 15 years of age and older are replaced. 6500 - The staffing needs of this division are related more to the efforts of re- • placing old, worn-out meters. Therefore, the additional Utility Service Representative position budgeted in 1973-74 was filled with an individual to assist in installing new water meters and helping in inventory control. It is proposed to add one new Clerk II.position to assist in resolving customer requests, delinquent account processing, and record keeping. It is proposed to change the billing cycle from one to approximately four cycles per month. This will spread the work load over a greater number of days and hopefully provide more time for customer service. The addition of this position will assist greatly in this conversion. 6552 - The cost of the 1972-73 audit is reflected in Account Code 6551 for that year - this account is established for professional services. • 6570 - Reflects cost for parts and materials associated with the meter change -out program and normal repair costs. 6590 - Includes $40,000 for new meters.
