MEMORANDUM
DATE. November 19, 2008
TO Civil Service Commission
FROM Carol Maples, Chief Examiner
RE. Computer Client Services Technician
Classification and Allocation Recommendation
This report summarizes my findings relating to the classification study for the position of
Computer Client Services Technician The study included an interview with the
incumbent, John Camey, interviews with supervisory personnel, development of a draft
revised class description, comparisons with positions in the City of Yakima's
classification system with similar levels of complexity and responsibility and a
compensation survey of local and regional public and private employers as provided by
the City
• The reclassification request was made based upon the perception of increased duties,
responsibilities and complexity of the work being performed. A determination whether
the duties had changed sufficiently to warrant reclassification had not previously been
made.
Based on my findings discussed herein, it is my recommendation that the position be
reclassified to Lead Client Services Technician and allocated at Pay Range 23 0
($4,338 45 - $5,198 91 per month)

PROVIDE TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR THE CITY'S SECURITY SYSTEM Assists
Building Superintendent with camera monitoring and security access system.
PROVIDE DESKTOP COMPUTER SUPPORT Consults with users regarding hardware
needs. Researches availability of computers and peripheral equipment. Maintains •
computer systems and peripherals within the City Troubleshoots and resolves complex
hardware, software, and other computer related problems.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN POSITION: The incumbent has assumed the responsibility
to assign and track all work orders for the Computer Client Services Technicians and
Help Desk personnel He takes an active role in implementing and maintaining the City's
numerous servers, including security measures. He plays a major role in the research of
new technology to ascertain if the technology would benefit the City
DISCUSSION
With the growing reliance on electronic devices in all aspects of doing business, it is
even more important to ensure the devices and supporting hardware and software are
working and functioning properly Having a person to take a lead role in assigning and
tracking work orders will help the process. Security is also of major concem.
In addition to extemal comparisons, we compared the duties and level of responsibility to
other classifications within the Information Systems Division Senior Applications
Developer, allocated to Pay Range 21 5 ($4,050 72 - $4,858 44), has similar technical
responsibilities, but does not have the lead worker responsibilities this position has, so
would be considered a lesser match. Database Administrator, allocated to Pay Range
23 0 ($4,338.45 - $5,198 17), has a greater level of responsibility and requires more
experience, however, it does not have the lead responsibilities this position carries, so it
is considered a good match Given the range of Low to High in the extemal
comparisons, and the comparison to the Database Administrator intemally, this position •
seems to align very well at Pay Range 23 0
• RECOMMENDATION
O
Based on my investigation and findings, it is my recommendation to create the
classification Lead Client Services Technician and that the classification be allocated to
a Pay Code 23 0 ($4,338.45 - $5,198 17 per month)
Because the incumbent has been performing the duties constituting significant change in
excess of six months, it is recommended that the incumbent, John Carney, be
reclassified to the classification without competitive examination.

RE. Irrigation Specialist I
Classification and Allocation Recommendation
This report summarizes my findings relating to the classification study for the position of
Irrigation Specialist I The study included an on -site audit and interviews with
supervisory personnel, development of a draft revised class description, comparisons
with positions in the City of Yakima's classification system with similar levels of
complexity and responsibility and a compensation survey of local and regional public
and private employers as provided by the City
The reclassification request was made based upon the perception of increased duties, •
responsibilities and complexity of the work being performed A determination whether
the duties had changed sufficiently to warrant reclassification had not previously been
made
Based on my findings discussed herein, it is my recommendation that the position be
reclassified to Irrigation Specialist I and allocated at Pay Range 13 5 ($2,816 61 -
$3,381 67 per month)
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
SUMMARY Incumbents in this classification participate in the activities of a field crew in
the systematic preventative maintenance, inspecting, repair and installation of the
irrigation river diversions, canals, pumping stations, and distribution system
MAIN REPAIRS AND REPLACE VALVES: Participates in accessing situation.
Determines location of break, traffic control, prevention of further damage. Calls for
assistance from various sources, including call out of crew if outside normal duty hours.
Determines type of equipment, type of pipe, and materials needed. Shuts down system,
including notifying customers of shut down, and police department if traffic restrictions
are involved Enters materials used and filed notes into AIMMS work order system
PUMP STATION OPERATION, REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE. This includes checking
pumps and motors for proper operation; clean screens; clean sump pits by hand and
with hydraulic operated vacuum. When entry into a pump station is required, confined
space entry procedures must be followed Depending on the location, traffic control may •
also be required. Repair and maintenance on pumps and motors includes cleaning,
• changing bearings, various switches, and lubrication. Repair and maintenance on
structures.
SERVICE REPLACEMENT Excavate and clear area of water main in preparation for a
new tap or, in some cases, use fusion welding technology for HDPE pipe Install
corporation stop into water main, run service line from corporation stop to new shut off
valve, make connection to' customer system if ready Backfill the area. Document work
completed and any field notes in AIMMS work order system.
DIVERSION BOX MAINTENANCE. Operate and maintain diversion boxes Clean the
boxes by hand and with hydraulic operated vacuum Repair concrete boxes by sealing
cracks, or by removing sections and pouring new sections
CANAL MAINTENANCE. Operate and maintain an irrigation canal from the head works
at Cowiche Creek to the outlet at Boise Cascade Mill, some of which is open ditch and
some parts piped. Adjust flows to insure all diversions from the canal are adequate and
the canal does not flood. Remove mud accumulations by hand Clean screens and
trash racks, mow weeds and brush, maintain fences and gates around canal
DIVERSION MAINTENANCE. Operate and maintain two river diversions. Adjust flows
into canal or pipe line as needed. Adjust flows to properly operate fish bypasses or
returns as required by the Endangered Species Act.
• DEBRIS SCREEN MAINTENANCE AND REPLACEMENT Clean screens, lubricate
gear boxes; make adjustments to mechanical operators on rotating type screens
Repair or replace electric motors and /or screen support rollers Depending on location
and size of screen, may require use of crane or rigging equipment, as well as confined
space entry and lock-out-tag-out procedures and traffic control.
RESERVOIR MAINTENANCE Routine tasks include checking levels, cleaning screens,
adjusting flows, mowing weeds, repairing fences and repairing /replacing access
hatches. Each year the reservoirs must be cleaned following the irrigation season The
sludge and debris are removed and the concrete walls and floors are inspected, and
either repaired or sections removed and replaced.
SERVICE CALLS Requisition materials and repair parts, and document maintenance
activities in AIMMS work order system
FLUSHING IRRIGATION MAINS: Flushing is accomplished using a variety of different
flushing valves and blow off valves, and requires following confined space entry
procedures. Assure water being flushed does not cause property damage and is in
compliance with the City Stormwater Permit.
INSTALL NEW IRRIGATION MAINS This requires excavation, safety and traffic control,
along with similar duties in Main Repairs and Replace Valves above.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN POSITION
• The responsibilities and skills required for this position have changed over the past few
years due to Federal and State mandates, including the Endangered Species Act, and
the updating of equipment and technology within the department. Additionally, the •
system was changed from 66 separate systems to a regular utility in 1997 The City
Council, in 1997, instituted a program to replace the failing infrastructure. This has
required the Specialists to be able to not only do minor maintenance and repairs as
required in the past, but to have the ability to do the major duties as well
DISCUSSION While there are many Irrigation companies in Washington, few have the
diversity as the City of Yakima. Most private companies have only open ditches in rural
areas. The Cities of Kennewick, Richland and Vancouver have irrigation systems, but
the workers perform a wider variety of duties that the Irrigation Specialists for Yakima.
Internal comparisons are necessary to help evaluate the level of responsibility and skills
Internal comparables included Wastewater Maintenance Specialist I and Waterworks
Specialist I Both of these positions are assigned to Pay Code 13.5 ($2,816.61 -
$3,381 67 per month) These two positions require very similar licenses and certificates
as the Irrigation Specialist I The scope of duties and levels of responsibilities are also
very similar
RECOMMENDATION
Based on my investigation and - findings, it is my recommendation that the classification
of Irrigation Specialist I retain the title, but be allocated to Pay Range 13 5 ($2,816 61 -
$3,381 67) Because the incumbent has been performing the duties in excess of six
months, it is further recommended that the incumbent be reclassified along with the
position without competitive examination •

and responsibility and a compensation survey of local and regional public and private
employers as provided by the City •
The reclassification request was made based upon increased demands and
responsibilities placed on the Chief Operators due to State and Federal mandates
related to water quality and treatment requirements and physical upgrades and additions
to the water treatment plant and associated structures.
Based on my findings discussed herein, it is my recommendation that the position be
reclassified to Water Treatment Plant Chief Operator and allocated at Pay Range 19 5
($3,700 60 - $4,440 71)
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
SUMMARY Incumbents in this classification operate the water treatment plant to
ensure regulated standards for potable water are met for the City of Yakima and areas
served by them Chief Operators work independently a majority of the time and must
make decisions regarding amounts of chemicals to add to properly treat the water to
maintain water quality and monitor flows and water demand to insure an adequate
supply for use by customers, for fire flows and to maintain adequate reserves of water
Adequate training and knowledge are essential to protecting the public health. They
also perform all maintenance on equipment and perform all preventive maintenance
work throughout the plant.
OPERATE AND MAINTAIN WATER TREATMENT PLANT
Chief Operators observe and monitor water flows directly and as indicated by
111
instruments at the intake structure, booster pumping stations, reservoirs, wells and
• treatment plant. Chief Operators must add correct amounts of chemicals for disinfection, .
coagulation and filtration Powdered activated carbon can be added for taste and odor
control. They work alone 75% of the time on day shift and 99% of the time on night shift.
Chief Operators are directly responsible for fast, accurate decisions that affect the
operations of the plant. Maintenance duties require plumbing, electrical and mechanical
disciplines
OPERATE INTAKE STRUCTURE
Chief Operators must operate and maintain the intake structure including the fish screen.
There is an air backwash system to keep the screen clear of debris. This is not only so
water can be transmitted to the Water Plant, but there are specific flow requirements for
the fish screen to prevent impinging fish on the screen The operators must control
proper levels in the intake through special weirs This requires knowledge of the
operation and maintenance of air compressors, air and electrical controls, and manual
gates and fish barriers. The operators must also understand some of the life history of
certain fish species and knowledge of the Endangered Species Act.
MONITOR EFFLUENT AND INFLUENT
Chief Operators continuously monitor influent water quality for turbidity, pH, taste and
odor, electrical resistance and alkalinity so they can properly treat the water They
continuously monitor effluent water quality for turbidity, chlorine residual, fluoride
• residual, pressure, pH, temperature, taste and odor, alkalinity, and hardness Chief
Operators adjust and control chlorination to disinfect per the Surface Water Treatment
Rule, its enhancements, and the Disinfection Byproducts rule Chief Operators must be
constantly alert for changes in raw water turbidity, net charge, color content, and pH, as
these parameters can change drastically, rapidly, and without warning. If the
computerized monitoring systems are unavailable due to extended maintenance or
failure, Chief Operators must know how to conduct tests in order to determine
appropriate chemical dosages while operating the plant in manual mode
OPERATE AND MAINTAIN FILTERS
Chief Operators must regularly monitor dual -media rapid sand filters during the
production and backwash cycles. The chemical reactions in disinfection, coagulation
and polymer additions are monitored to observe and assure proper operation and
production of water They are also routinely backwashed by the Chief Operator when
certain parameters are met or surpassed. Chief Operators make changes in the
backwash recipe on the computer graphical user interface as required by conditions. In
addition, Chief Operators perform scheduled maintenance to include measuring for
media depth, cleaning and servicing the surface was system, and calibrating the valve
position indicators, flow meters, limit switches, and level transmitters
MONITOR AND ADJUST WATER FLOW
Chief Operators adjust flows at the treatment plant to meet the water demand in the
system and reservoirs They adjust pump sequence at the pump stations to maintain
• the water level at the reservoirs at an acceptable level to provide adequate water for
water demands including fire flow or other emergencies and for scheduled maintenance
such as flushing mains. This may also require the activation of interties with neighbor
water systems. These adjustments are normally done on the computerized system, but •
the Chief Operators must know how to operate the control system and pumps manually
They must, also be aware of the water rights and limitations and determine when
supplemental water may be required
COAGULATION CONTROL CENTER
The coagulation control center (CCC) monitors chemical feed changes and raw water
chemistry changes that affect the coagulation, flocculation and filtration processes. The
CCC contains 2 pilot filters and a Streaming Current Monitor The proper operation and
control of the treatment plant, especially during muddy /dirty river conditions, is essential
and part of the Surface Water Treatment Rule requirements Improper maintenance of
this equipment would result in improper water treatment which could result in public
health issues. Chief Operators must possess detailed knowledge of the operation and
maintenance of this equipment.
CHEMICAL MIXING, STORAGE AND HANDLING
Chief Operators handle, mix and store a variety of chemicals used for water treatment
including polymers, sodium hypochlorite, aluminum sulfate, ploy aluminum chlorides,
calcium hypochlorite and fluoride. Chief Operators must understand the chemical
properties of these chemicals, what safety equipment they must use, how to handle
them and how to dispose of them. The Chief Operators must receive chemicals from
suppliers in a variety of methods, such as by sack, large totes, or by large truck tanker
This requires knowledge of proper handling methods, proper routing of valves to off Toad •
use of a fork lift. Some of these chemicals, such as hydrofluorosilicic acid, are
hazardous and require special training and equipment.
MONITOR AND CALIBRATE TURBIDIMETERS
Chief Operators monitor and calibrate turbidimeters (instruments for determining clarity
of water) for influent water, effluent water, coagulation control filter monitoring, and
individual filters. These calibration procedures must be followed to insure proper
operation and measurements by the turbidity meters. Improper calibration could result in
under treated water being discharged from the Water Plant, which could compromise
public health Documentation of the calibration is required.
FLUORIDATION
Chief Operators add fluorosilicic acid to comply with voter mandate to add fluoride to the
drinking water This acid is peculiarly dangerous and extreme caution must be
exercised when working in and around this facility Chief Operators are responsible for
the maintenance of the feed building, the feed and transfer pumps, alarm system, and
process piping. Special Hazmat protective clothing must be wom when they are
exposed to the liquid itself, such as when servicing the pumps or repairing a leak.
OPERATE AND MAINTAIN CHEMICAL FEEDERS, PUMPS AND COMPRESSORS
Chief Operators maintain, calibrate and repair chemical feeders, pumps, air •
compressors, pneumatic valves, and air cylinders. They perform scheduled
maintenance on drive motor bearings, adjust pump packing, and replace motor bearings
1110 and /or pump parts, motors, or complete pumps as required They also remove drive
motors, deliver them to repair shops, and reinstall repaired motors.
OPERATE AND MAINTAIN TELEMETRY SYSTEM
The telemetry system is a radio /receiver system with a repeater site The treatment
plant, intake, wells, reservoir sites and pump stations are all communicated with,
monitored and controlled through the graphical user interface The telemetry system
consists of programmable logic controllers, power supplies, uninterruptible power
supplies, radio transmitters /receivers, and antenna systems The Chief Operators
attended radio and antenna maintenance and radio programming school They are
responsible for antenna calibration and system troubleshooting The radios are
programmed with a lap top computer A bucket truck with hydraulic boom is used to
access the antennas for maintenance.
OPERATE AND MAINTAIN WELLS
Chief Operators must operate the wells that supply water for the system Wells can be
used to supply all water or supplement water produced by the water plant. The
operators monitor flow, adjust the disinfection feed rates, amperage draw, water level in
the well, pressures and valve operation. The operators adjust and calibrate flow meters,
pressure transmitters, chemical feeders and air systems. These activities require some
knowledge of the water distribution system and hydraulics
• OPERATE AND MAINTAIN BOOSTER PUMP STATIONS
Chief Operators operate and maintain the water booster pump stations used to transfer
water from one pressure zone to another The operators calibrate valves, flow meters,
pressure transmitters and pump controls Maintenance includes pump and motor repair,
pump and motor change out, pump control valve repair, and repairs to sump pumps
These activities require some knowledge of the water distribution system and hydraulics.
BIO- TERRORISM, SECURITY AND FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
After the terrorism acts on September 11, 2001, Congress passed the Bio- Terrorism law
This requires the Chief Operators to have heightened vigilance conceming security of
the water supply systems to protect against acts of terrorism that could contaminate the
water supply or interrupt the supply This rule also requires the operators to be trained
and to comply with the National Incident Management System (NIMS)
MISCELLANEOUS MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Water Treatment Plant Chief Operators maintain and repair the Water Treatment Plant
building and all associated systems including the wells, reservoirs, pump stations and
intake. This includes general electrical, plumbing, carpentry skills and custodial duties.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN POSITION There have been at least ten significant rule
changes /additions, both State and Federal, since this classification was last critiqued in
• 1996 There are several more in the works that will require new and different sampling
and reporting. Two major Federal mandates include Final Stage 2 Disinfectants and
Disinfection By- Products Rule published January, 2006; and Long Term 2 Enhanced
Surface Water Treatment Rule published January, 2006. These new rules require •
efforts to minimize the formation of trihalomethanes (THM's) and five representative
haloacetic acids (HAAS) in the distribution system, in addition to increased inactivation
criteria for viruses, Giardia, and cryptosporidium Aggressive goals have been
established for the Naches River Water Treatment Plant which exceed the current
requirements of the Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule Stringent testing
and monitoring is required to maintain these goals.
Yakima City citizens, in 1999, voted in favor of adding fluoride to the drinking water
Since hydrofluorosilicic acid is a hazardous and highly corrosive acid, it requires its own
self- contained facility This facility was constructed in 2001, and fluoride was first added
to drinking water in April 2002. The Chief Operators are responsible for the
maintenance of the facility, including the feed and transfer pumps, alarm system,
process piping and chemical off loading from suppliers. Extreme caution must be
exercised when working with acid as it is peculiarly dangerous. Special Hazmat
protective clothing and breathing apparatus must be worn when they are handling the
chemical
A new chemical feed building was constructed in 2004 While adding chemicals to the
raw water is not new, the technology is new In addition, the type and physical
composition of many of the chemicals has changed. Three new machines were added.
One machine converts brine solution into sodium hypochlorite (bleach) for disinfection,
which is a new process for the Treatment Plant.
In 2003, the intake structure was redesigned and modified to meet demands from •
Department of Ecology Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries to comply with the
Endangered Species Act to protect Bull Trout and Steelhead. These changes have
increased the monitoring and maintenance duties of the Chief Operators
DISCUSSION
The changes that have occurred in the past few years require greater knowledge of
process control, computer technology, instrumentation, telemetry, equipment operation,
maintenance and repair In addition, the Treatment Plant Operators must keep abreast
of the ever increasing State and Federal rules and regulations
Extemal Comparisons: A salary survey was conducted that included thirty-eight (38)
public and private agencies with a return of 18 (47 37%) Of the responses, nine (9)
indicated their classification's duties closely matched those of the City of Yakima. The
mean monthly pay rate is $3,933 - $4,769, which most closely matches Yakima's pay
range 21 0 ($3,958 86 - $4,752.71)
Internal Comparisons: There are a few classifications in the City's compensation plan
that should be compared to this classification. They include
Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator III, which, under general supervision operates
and maintains a primary and secondary wastewater treatment plant, including trickling
filter and activated sludge biological treatment, anaerobic sludge digestion, chlorination,
dechlorination, odor control, biosolids and composting programs. This classification is •
compensated at pay range 17 0 ($3,295.00 - $3,958 86)
•
Water Device Crew Leader, which under limited supervision, participates in the activities
of a field crew involved in the repair, overhaul and testing of water service meters;
organizes and coordinates and participates in the cross - connection program and repairs,
tests and overhauls backflow assemblies. Work is performed with opportunity to
exercise independent judgment and initiative within established policies and procedures
and is reviewed through direct observation, consumer /customer comment, results
achieved and consultation. This classification is compensated at pay range 18 0
($3,451 00 - $4,144 32)
Signal Technician III, which, under general supervision, performs skilled journey level
electronic work in the installation, operation, maintenance and repair of traffic signal
systems, and illumination systems Maintains and repairs traffic control devices.
Operates a variety of specialized tools and test equipment related to electronic repairs
such as digital voltmeters, recording meters. Assists with equipment use, supplies
required, tests and measurements to be performed. Assists in the training of crew
members Maintains written logs indicating inventories, work status and completion
This classification is compensated at pay range 20 5 ($3,877 39 - $4,650 44)
The Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator III is allocated to pay range 17 0 Based on
the duties, responsibilities and minimum qualifications of that classification, the Water
Treatment Chief Operator should be compensated at a higher range. The Water Device
Crew Leader, while it has the responsibility associated with supervising a crew, does not
• require the knowledge of chemicals and operations of the plant that is required of the
Chief Operators. The Signal Technician III classification requires similar expertise in the
technical aspects of electronic equipment.
In the past 20 months, we recruited for this position nine times. We received 83
applications, with only seven meeting the minimum qualifications. Of those seven
applicants only one successfully completed the examination process There is a
shortage of qualified operators nation -wide, so our applicant pool is limited. In addition,
we are competing with much larger systems, which compensate the applicants at a
higher pay rate.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the above information, it is my recommendation that the classification of Water
Treatment Plant Chief Operator be reclassified to Water Treatment Plant Chief Operator
and be allocated to Pay Range 19 5 ($3,700 60 - $4,440 71 per month) Since the
incumbents have been performing the duties of the classification in excess of six
months, it is further recommended that the incumbents be reclassified along with the
position without competitive examination

MEMORANDUM
DATE. November 19, 2008
TO Civil Service Commission
FROM Carol Maples, Chief Examiner
RE. Water Quality Specialist
Classification and Allocation Recommendation
This report summarizes my findings relating to the classification study for the position of
Water Quality Specialist (WQS), held by the incumbent Damon Wilkens The study
included an on -site audit with the incumbent, a tour of the facilities with the Water Plant
Supervisor Jeff Bond and WQS Damon Wilkens, an interview with Water /Irrigation
Manager Dave Brown, development of a draft revised class description, comparisons
with positions in the City of Yakima's classification system with similar levels of
complexity and responsibility and a compensation survey of local and regional public
and private employers as provided by the City
The reclassification request was made based upon the perception of increased duties, •
responsibilities and complexity of the work being performed. A determination whether
the duties had changed sufficiently to warrant reclassification had not previously been
made
Based on my findings discussed herein, it is my recommendation that the position be
reclassified to Water Quality Specialist and allocated at Pay Range 21 5 ($4,050 72 -
$4,858 44)
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
SUMMARY Incumbents in this classification serve in a lead capacity for testing
requirements and performing tests as required by the Safe Drinking Water Act and the
Washington State Water Rules. The WQS independently and collaboratively monitors
and researches federal and state regulations that will impact operations and compliance
This can include current and ongoing rules, upcoming rules, or revisions to existing rules
yet to be promulgated The WQS must anticipate the effects of these new rules or
changes and develop strategies for sampling and treatment compliance The WQS
must research and find qualified/certified laboratories, and prepare a budget that
incorporates these new costs with existing fiscal outlay It is also necessary for the
WQS to fully understand how the plant and related functions operate, what the
capabilities are and what the limitations are in order to determine treatment capabilities
and recommendations for treatment modifications Additionally, the WQS is also
required to be a Water Treatment Plant Chief Operator, and subject to the requirements
and responsibilities in that classification. The WQS must operate the Naches River •
Water Treatment Plant, wells, pump stations, intake and reservoirs alone and
unsupervised.
•
MONITORING
The WQS monitors the data collected at the Naches River Water Treatment Plant, wells,
reservoirs, pump stations and intake, prepares reports based on this data, and is
responsible for submitting the numerous reports to multiple state and federal agencies
The WQS must be able to analyze the data collected, spot trends and predict possible
problems based on the data collected. Independent judgment is used as to whether this
information needs to be shared with others involved with the treatment operation. New
rules about disinfection and disinfection by- products and microorganisms, published in
January 2006, have increased the importance of the quality and quantity of data
collected
SAMPLE PLAN PREPARATION
The WQS prepares and updates several mandated sampling plans. These plans
include sample frequencies, sample locations, maps, descriptions of the distribution
system, explanations of how the sample locations are representative of all water sources
and conditions, locations for follow -up samples when certain criteria are met or
exceeded. The WQS assists in coordinating the approval of the plans with State and /or
Federal agencies.
SAMPLING FOR DISINFECTION BY- PRODUCTS AND PARASITES
•
The Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT 2), and Stage 2
Disinfectants /Disinfection By- Products (Stage 2 DBPR) rule were published in January
2006. The LT 2 Rule required an initial two years of monthly sampling for
Cryptosporidium, a microscopic parasite that can cause severe public health problems.
This will be used to determine treatment requirements. The Stage 2 DBPR Rule is a
follow -up to earlier rules that address disinfection byproducts to reduce disinfection by-
products in the drinking water that have public health issues, such as increased risk of
cancer
BACTERIOLOGICAL SAMPLING
The State Department of Health requires 70 samples each month be tested for the
presence of coliform bacteria as an indicator of water quality This testing and sample
collection is done by a certified independent laboratory The WQS coordinates the sites
and sample time periods. There are about 140 sites where samples are collected, and
these sites are tested on a two month rotating basis. The WQS manages the contractor
collecting and analyzing the samples. When the results are received, the WQS has the
responsibility for completing and submitting the monthly report.
BIO- TERRORISM, SECURITY AND FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
After the terrorism acts on September 11, 2001, Congress passed the Bio-Terrorism law
This requires the operators to have heightened vigilance concerning the security of
• water supply systems to protect against acts of terrorism that could contaminate the
water supply or interrupt the supply This rule also requires the operators to be trained
and to comply with the National Incident Management System (NIMS)
BUDGETARY RESPONSIBILITIES
•
The WQS (WQS) independently and collaboratively monitors and researches federal
and state regulations that will impact operations and compliance This can include
current and ongoing rules (e g. D /DBPR2), upcoming rules (e g UCMR2), or revisions to
existing rules yet to be promulgated (e g TCR) The WQS must anticipate the effects of
these new rules or changes and develop a budget that incorporates these new costs
with existing fiscal outlay
OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES
In addition to the above mentioned duties, the WQS is also a relief Water Treatment
Plant Chief Operator The duties listed in the reclassification report for Water Treatment
Plant Chief Operator would also apply to the WQS.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN POSITION
In addition to the significant changes listed in the reclassification report for Water
Treatment Plant Chief Operator, the WQS must monitor current and future changes to
the water quality rules as well as monitoring treatment technique requirements. The
WQS must keep proficient as a Water Treatment Plant Chief Operator to be able to
make recommendations about required treatment methods and evaluate the plant's
capabilities in order to make good and accurate recommendations
DISCUSSION
•
The changes that have occurred in the past few years require greater knowledge of the
State and Federal rules and regulations and the effect on a Surface Water Treatment
Plant. They must be able to determine how the changes will impact the operations of
the plant, and make recommendations to keep the plant in compliance Because of the
low number of responses from extemal agencies, it was even more important to use
intemal comparisons.
Extemal Comparisons. A salary survey was conducted that included thirty-eight (38)
public and private agencies with a retum of 18 (47 37 %) Of the responses, three (3)
indicated their classification's duties closely matched those of the City of Yakima. The
mean monthly pay rate is $3,904 - $4,756. This most closely matches Yakima's pay
range 21 0 ($3,958.86 - $4,752.71)
Internal Comparisons: The Environmental Compliance Specialist is allocated to Pay
Range 21 0 ($3,958 86 - $4,752.71) Several of the duties are similar in responsibility to
the WQS, however, the WQS must also be certified to operate the Water Treatment
Plant, adding to the responsibilities of that position, and therefore should be
compensated at a higher range. Comparison should also be made to the Water
Treatment Plant Chief Operator position. The WQS must, in addition to the listed duties
and responsibilities, be able to operate the plant at the same level as a Chief Operator or
higher This clearly is an argument for higher compensation. The reclassification report
for Chief Operator recommends pay range 19 5 ($3,700 60 - $4,440 71) •
• RECOMMENDATION
Based on my investigation and findings, it is my recommendation that the classification
of Water Quality Specialist retain the same title, but be allocated to Pay Range 21 5
($4,050 72 - $4,858 44) Because the incumbent has been performing the duties of the
classification in excess of six months, it is further recommended that the incumbent be
reclassified along with the position without competitive examination.

40 COUNCIL ACTION
Pursuant to my November 13, 2009 notice to the Council, this ordinance also incorporates the
management pay and compensation adjustments which would take effect as required by the
current formula prescribed in the Yakima Municipal Code, Section 2.20 116B This memorandum
indicated that the management group was considering reallocating a portion of their wage
increase to offset the medical insurance program to reduce out -of- pocket monthly premium
contributions Subsequent to issuing the memo, a mathematical error was noted The original
notice stated the reallocation was 1 57% and should have been 1 41% The group voted to
reallocate 1 41 % from the 1/1/09 wage increase of 4 68%, thereby reducing the wage increase to
3.27%
Negotiations with the newly formed police management unit represented by Teamsters are
scheduled to commence later this month Though we anticipate a cordial negotiating
atmosphere, in that this is a new unit, represented by a Union with which the City does not have a
current contract, it is anticipated that negotiations could take several weeks, if not months. The
ordinance provides for a pay increase for Teamster members commensurate with the
management group as outlined above. This measure is in keeping with the state labor law
principle of maintaining "dynamic status quo" when bargaining under such circumstances
The Chief Examiner received 10 requests for reclassifications for 2007 -2008 Four requests were
denied. Of the six that had detailed review, one reclassification, Human Resources Assistant,
requires no formal Council action because the Commission approved the recommendation to
reclassify it to the existing classification and pay range of Human Resources Specialist. The
remaining five reclassification requests and two title changes were approved by the Civil Service
Commission at the November 19, 2008 meeting, these recommendations are subject to City
Council review and approval
