Makes it Happen" DATE January 29, 2007 TO Civil Service Commissioners Carol Maples, Chief Examiner FROM. Dave Brown, Water /Irrigation Manager RE: Water Treatment Plant Operator Grade I & II Classification This report summarizes recommendations for changes in duties and responsibilities and pay allocation relating to the Water Treatment Plant Operator Grade I & II classification in the Water /Irrigation Division of the City of Yakima. These positions have not been filled in over fifteen (15) years. The current operators at the Water Treatment Plant are Water Treatment Plant Chief Operators ( WTPCO) at Pay Range 17 5 During the recent recruiting efforts for a new WTPCO we had very little success in attracting viable candidates for this position, in fact we ended up with only one candidate and he did not accept the position when offered. We believe this is due to the requirement to have a Water Treatment Plant Operator 11 Certificate of Competency and at least three years of experience as it relates to wage competition with other utilities for this caliber of operator Having the Water Treatment Plant Operator Grade I & II positions available, we can recruit from a much larger pool of candidates. This same issue will surface again this spring when we have a WTPCO scheduled to retire In preparing these recommendations, the Water /Irrigation Division Manager and the Water Treatment Plant Supervisor identified the intent of the position, the duties, technical skills required and certification levels. We also reviewed other City of Yakima wastewater operator compensation levels to determine a recommended level of compensation. Because the City already has other plant operator positions, a salary survey of external organizations was not performed. This classification will operate the Water Treatment Plant, wells, pump stations and reservoirs to supply drinking water to the City of Yakima. Because of the experience and certification requirements, my recommendation is that the classification be allocated to Pay Code 14 5 for Grade I ($16 53 - $19 76 -- $2,865 53 - $3,425 00 /mo) and Pay Code 15 5 ($17 33 - $20 73 -- $3,003 81 - $3,593 13 /mo) for Grade II DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES SUMMARY: Under supervision, operates and maintains the water treatment plant, wells, pump stations and reservoirs to insure an adequate and potable drinking water supply David E Brown Water /Irrigation Manager (509) 575 -6204 Fax (509) 575 -6187 dbrown @ci yakima wa.us Civil Service Page 2 Monitors and adjusts flows by manually and /or remotely adjusting valves, gates and pump controls to regulate flow at the Water Treatment Plant, pump stations, wells and reservoirs to meet system demand; monitors water quality of water directly and as indicated by instruments, takes water samples, performs tests to determine water quality; adjusts input of treatment chemicals to maintain water quality; records water quality and flow data in log book and computer database, manipulates controls to wash filters, routinely inspects intake.

The salary is based on internal comparisons only INTERNAL COMPARISONS This classification was compared to the Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator I (10 5), Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator II (15 0), Water Treatment Plant Chief Operator (17 5) Because of the nature of the classification it appears the closest match is the Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator 11 (15 0) Both the Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator 1 & 11 have lower certification requirements than the Water Treatment Plant Operator Grade I or Grade 11 Some additional duties and responsibilities have been added to the original Water Treatrnent Plant Operator Grade I & 11 position to reflect changes that have occurred over the last 15 years, as noted in the attached Job Specification RECOMMENDATION.
