gravity lines, manholes and pavement repair for such line extensions from Michaels-

SUBJECT: Chlorine Room Expansion
DATE: January 31, 1972
It is requested that I be authorized to direct the engineers to make the necessary
cnanges at the treatment plant to accommodate one ton chlorine cylinders in
lieu of 150N cylinders. The cost of the change will be $11,755.00. Funds can
be diverted from the contingency fund to cover the costs.
There are a number of reasons why ton cylinders are better than 150A cylinders
The use of ton cylinders requires fetter man hours in handling the cylinders, cheaper
costs in purchasing the chlorine and the fact that the change to ton cylinders
will be necessary when the plant is expanded are among the primary reasons. In
addition, we will be limited in personnel so labor saving devices in the operation
will be to our advantage.
Costs Per it Per Day Per Mo. Per Yr. @ 40-/Day
150# .135 d $5.40 $172.00 $2,064.00
Ton •095 � $3.80 $114.00 $1,368.00 Save $696/yr.
Labor/Wk
Labor/Yr
150n 2 hrs x $3.00/hr = $6.00 $312.00
I
ton 1/6 hr x $3.00/hr - $0.50 26.00 Save $286/yr
* Does not include Sat. or Sun. overtime.
At a usage rate of 40n/day a 150# CL2 cylinder would have to be changed every 3?� days. !
Safety laws require two men to make the change. This operation takes 2 men 1/2 hour each
twice weekly or 2 hours/week. If the cylinder change comes on Saturday or Sunday
when only one man is on duty, a roan would have to be called in and paid overtine to
assist.
At the same usage rate of 40#/day a ton CL2 cylinder would have to be changed only
every 50 days requiring two men 1/2 hour each or 1 hour every 50 days to average 10
minutes/week.
A ton cylinder will last 13.3 times longer, is $0.04/# cheaper and is changed with a
chain hoist whereas a 150y cylinder has to be handled by manpower. The cylinder
weight of 1001 plus the C12 weight of 150# equals 250# of weight. These cylinders j
must be lifted by hand resulting in back strain, smashed fingers, insurance claims 11
and ultimately higher insurance rates.
We must be concerned with keeping the operating costs at the plant as low as possible.
This change will result in a manpower and materials savings of almos $1000.00 a
year.
