C. MAINTENANCE <br /> 1. Vehicle Maintenance <br /> Vehicle maintenance will continue to be performed at the Great Western <br /> Reclamation site. The maintenance department is responsible for all vehicle <br /> breakdowns and container repair. The department is composed of mechanics, <br /> welders, painters, tire and fuel technicians and other support staff. The <br /> maintenance department's foremost priority is to sustain a safe and efficient fleet <br /> of trucks and containers that are in good working condition. <br /> Vehicle maintenance will continue to be performed as follows: the drivers are <br /> required to fill out a daily vehicle condition report (VCR) upon completion of their <br /> daily routes. The report specifies the areas that need repair or attention by the <br /> maintenance department. The night maintenance supervisor reviews the VCR's <br /> and delegates the work to staff mechanics; priority goes to safety related <br /> problems. <br /> Great Western Reclamation collection vehicles are equipped with hour meters. <br /> Fuel technicians enter the number of gallons used and hour meter readings per <br /> vehicle into Great Western Reclamation's computerized fleet analysis (CFA) <br /> system. The hour meter reading triggers the trucks maintenance schedule. The <br /> schedule is as follows: <br /> Type 'A"inspection <br /> • Every 150 hours or 90 days. <br /> • Lubrication of vehicles and thorough inspection. <br /> Type "B"inspection <br /> • Every 300 hours or 180 days. <br /> • Oil and filter change, lubrication and thorough inspection. <br /> 17 <br />
