Re: Additional information requested for wholesale water bills for
April, May, and June, 1992
Dear Mr. Fortner:
September 29, 1992
Please find enclosed additional information requested for
these bills, itemized as follows:
1. Copies of telephone bills, with appropriate charges marked.
2. Copies of computer generated summaries of Repair and
Maintenance costs. Most of these are self explanatory. As
before we have notated unusual items, and have provided
itemized invoices for the more costly items. We will be glad
to provide documentation for the smaller items, if needed.
3. Copy of the Southern Analytical invoice for the month of May.
4. Copy of the Reese -Macon invoice for the month of June.
Note that the Repair and Maintenance costs for the month of
June include $7,480.69 for replacement of Finished Water Pump #3.
As #3 pump is manifolded with the OBWA pumps, and provides valuable
"back -up" service to OBWA customers, we have included this expense
in calculating the cost per gallon for that month. Please advise
us if you require further justification for this. In any event,
major repair /replacement costs for this pump occur infrequently.
The single Reese -Macon invoice is for engineering services
during rehabilitation of the existing Surface Water Plant. Note
that this is the final billing on this project, and that these
modifications have resulted in significant savings for OBWA and for
the City.
Please contact us if we can provide further information.
