| We have 218 wastewater lift stations and growing. Does anyone have any research available or a point of contact that might have a ratio for number of employees vs. number of lift stations? What type of employees are required ( mechanics, electricians, operators)? Organizational charts? Any help would be appreciated. |

| | Your organisation must already have a heap of history and experience so why not start there. It also sounds like you need to work out those things that are going to effect staffing like: 1) What level of maintenance you want to operate at. 2) What level of service you want to achieve. 3) What is the current condition , age , reliability etc and where do you want to be in the short and long term. 4) Does your system have particular operational issues like high infiltration rates , flooding , overloading , power unreliability , short/long detention times etc. Until you work out those things it will be difficult to use/compare someone elses data.

| | We have look at all of those areas and are continuing to evolve. When trying to defend a request to add additional resources and personnel your are always asked "what do other people do?" We are now at that point. What are other people doing? I don't think you'll find any two systems alike. We are always looking for a better way or idea to do our job. Please e-mail me at dhoffman@clarksville.com with any information. |

| | I work for a city in Texas. We currently have 80 lift stations that are taken care of by 4 operators that do it all as far as checking them and maintaining them. |
