Flagler indicates the work by the new person appears to be satisfactory. Frisch said that a provision for reimbursement needs to be added. Robertson replied that such a provision exists. Dossett made the motion that the proposed rain gage contract be adopted. Site operators sometimes take the manuals with them when they resign, leaving the new operator without one.
Operators also tend to lose or misplace their manuals fairly often.
The result is ongoing requests for additional manuals, and none are available. Dossett wants to know if we are going to push for more rapid updating of the manual, which seems to be continually relegated to low priority status. Nilles noted that the QA steering committee discussed a living document with 3-hole punched pages which would be kept in a three ring binder so that individual pages can be replaced as updated pages are prepared. Frisch made a motion to print the manual as it currently stands. Dossett seconded the motion.
