I I I I I 5. Operation and Maintenance We recommend that the City begin planning for installation of on-site power generators for the east and west welI field, fi.the water treatment facility is planned for construction within the next 3-4 years, on-site generators could be delayed until that time. On-site generators would not be needed for the east well field at that time. We also recommend that the City begin increasing the staffing allocation to the water system. As noted, only approximately 0.65 FTE is allocated to the water system. This should be brought up to a minimum of 3.0, with an optimum range of 4 to 5 FTE allocated to water system work. In addition, we recommend that the City begin a program for encouraging water conservation practices throughout the system. C.
