Personnel, Equipment, and Cost Considerations
Publication: Urban Stormwater Controls Operation and Maintenance
Abstract
The type of personnel and their skill sets, as well as the equipment requirements to conduct maintenance of stormwater control measures (SCMs), are evolving. The types of personnel and equipment required for the execution of maintenance activities are typically organized into four categories: surface inspection and maintenance, subsurface inspection and maintenance, porous pavement inspection and maintenance, and specialty maintenance. Budgeting for operations and maintenance (O&M) programs is critical for understanding and planning for expected program resources, particularly as programs are developing and expanding. Budgeting includes several additive components that reflect overall program costs. These include program development, staffing, field equipment, office equipment, materials, equipment and facilities maintenance, disposal facilities, and others. Accurately projecting OM program costs is critical to program success. A maintenance capital improvement program can be used by a utility or municipality to prioritize which SCM or system maintenance projects should be funded each year within the planning horizon.
