CI <br /> IN <br /> Elk River . <br /> Municipal Utilities <br /> 13069 Orono Parkway <br /> Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> (763) 441-2020 <br /> UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Wade Lovelette-Superintendent of Technical <br /> John Dietz, Chair Services <br /> Daryl Thompson, Vice Chair <br /> Allan Nadeau, Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> August 13, 2012 5.2 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> Adoption of the American Public Power Association Safety Manual J5`h Edition <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> In April of this year, Elk River Municipal Utilities (ERMU) received the Reliable Public Power <br /> Provider(RP3) recognition from the American Public Power Association (APPA). One of the <br /> categories that the APPA scores for the RP3 recognition is safety. One of the requirements is to <br /> formally adopt a safety manual. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> Although ERMU has used the APPA safety manual as well as an ERMU safety manual for many <br /> years, ERMU has never formally adopted a safety manual. To formally adopt a safety manual, it <br /> must be done by the governing body and recorded in the minutes. The General Manager must <br /> then direct all employees to use the safety manual and provide supporting documentation or a <br /> memorandum. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> Staff recommends the Commission formally adopt the 15`h edition of the American Public Power <br /> Association Safety Manual. A copy of the manual is available for review. <br /> ,' PONE <br /> - j AEORAY <br /> R � a NATURE <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider <br /> P O W E R E D T 0 S E R V E <br />
