  How to Know What You Know (3)
  ...In many situations we act without even knowing why we act the way we do...This is no longer desirable when your organization is changing too often...Knowledge Management is (amongst other aspects) about making the “private” knowledge “publicly” available...So that you can bridge the Knowledge Gap...But your organization was not used to this. Different teams applied different principles...And now what?How to address this new set of principles so that knowledge management is adopted in the primary process?When existing employees and management ge
  Plant Maintenance managers seek to effectively utilize existing resources to reduce operating costs and save money that increases the bottom line of the company. The role of an effective plant maintenance operation is to consistently maintain quality pollution prevention control measures at all times

  The segment of plant management that is most susceptible to pollution control fines is in the area of landscape maintenance. Each raindrop or the run off from watering that falls on impervious surfaces such as pavement, sidewalks, and roads, can mobilize pollutants on those surfaces.

  Everything from automobile oil and grease to trash and debris can be carried by runoff into lakes, streams, rivers and oceans. Oil and chemical spills that form on pavement pose a significant environmental threat. Oil and chemical spills run into waterways and threaten valuable ecosystems. These spills also threaten public health and safety.

  The following pollution control prevention principles and practices apply to most industries but the following guidelines are specific to the areas of plant maintenance. The Best Management Practice Objectives are the minimum standards that are set by the EPA.

  • When it is possible, the company should use alternative, safer or recycled products that have the least negative environmental impact.
  • A comprehensive plan to redirect storm water.
  • An overall plan to reduce the use of water and use recycled water.
  • Reduce storm water flow across the site of the facility.
  • Recycle or reuse water waste products.
  • Move or cover potential pollution run off from storm water contact.
  • Provide training to employee in pollution prevention.

  The Best Management Practices for facilities' maintenance that reduces or eliminates pollution include:
  

  1. Reduction of landscape maintenance requirements

  • Use low water use flowers, trees, shrubs and ground covers.

  2. Properly store and dispose of gardening wastes

  • Grass clippings, leaves, sticks, or other collected vegetation should be disposed of as garbage at a permitted landfill or by composting.

  3. Use erosion control measures.

  • When chemicals or oil are spilled on impervious surfaces, they should be cleaned up immediately with non-toxic cleaners or absorbents.
  • Use Peat Moss as an environmentally safe method to clean impervious surfaces.
  • Peat Moss Absorbents passed the T.C.L.P. (Toxic Characteristic Leachate Procedure)
  • Peat Moss has an affinity for hydrocarbons of all types

    Mechanical Truck Wash Equipment VS Human Labor and Hand Washing
    There is a big debate in the truck washing industry currently in whether it is better to go totally automatic with a mechanical robotic truck wash system and equipment or used human labor and hand washing to clean all the trucks. If you ask a truck driver or a trucking company they would prefer a hand wash because the job comes out better and because less things are broken such as mirrors, fittings and rubber components which get hurt from the chemicals that are used.We human labor and hand washing the chemicals cannot be that harsh otherwise they cannot work

        What To Do When HR Calls...
        Generally, when you present yourself as a prospective candidate for a new employment opportunity, your information will filter through the Human Resources department. Since every company has their own hiring process, understand that you cannot always control when HR will call you. Our philosophy is that a prepared candidate will have a higher chance of success than an unprepared candidate.Here are a few things to keep in mind if HR does call:1. Remain calm: Very few HR departments will take the time or effort to call candidates they are not interested in

        • When chemicals or oil are spilled on impervious surfaces, they should be cleaned up immediately with non-toxic cleaners or absorbents.
        • Use Peat Moss as an environmentally safe method to clean impervious surfaces.
        • Peat Moss Absorbents passed the T.C.L.P. (Toxic Characteristic Leachate Procedure)
        • Peat Moss has an affinity for hydrocarbons of all types

        4. Proper Management of irrigation and runoff

        • Do not allow muddy water into a storm drain.
        • Pour the muddy water over landscaped areas.
        • Plant managers should check irrigation system regularly for leaks
        • Insure that excessive runoff is not occurring from their facilities.

        5. Proper storage and disposal of chemicals

        • Implement storage requirements for pesticide products
        • Confer with the local fire department or Agricultural commissioner on storage

        6. Proper management of pesticide and herbicides

        • Do not apply pesticides if rain is expected
        • Do not apply pesticides if the wind speed exceeds 5 MPH
        • Pesticides should not be mixed or prepared near storm drains

        7. Proper use and management of fertilizer includes:

        • Follow manufacturer’s recommendations and label directions.
        • Use techniques that minimize off target applications of fertilizer
        • Use alternative application techniques.

        8. Train employee in the implementation of Best Management Practice procedures and guidelines.

        • The training should include storm water discharge prohibitions and waste water discharge requirements.
        • Train employees on the use of pesticides and pesticide applications.
        • Establishing a training schedule that provides employees with the proper tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill.

        Applying Best Management Practices (BMPs) insure that facilities are in compliance with local, state and national environmental control regulations. Employees who are trained properly are a critical factor in implementing these guidelines. The site’s spill control plan and proper spill cleanup procedures should be an ongoing implementation project.
