EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to recognize Robert Dennison, Plant Mechanic,

OBJECTIVE: To obtain approval from the Board of County Commissioners to recognize
Robert Dennison, Plant Mechanic, Wastewater Department, as Employee of the Month
for January 2009.
CONSIDERATIONS: Robert Dennison, Plant Mechanic, has been nominated as the
"Employee of the Month" for January 2009, Robert has been an employee of the County
and the Wastewater Department since 1989. He is an instrumental team member at the
South County Water Reclamation Facility, who contributes greatly to its efficient
operation and maintenance.
Robert is a top performer when it comes to productivity at the facility. He makes sure to
get the job done right the first time, Robert uses his years of experience in the
wastewater maintenance and operations field to know what works and what doesn't. He
makes decisions that reduce equipment downtime as well as operational and
maintenance costs, He is often able to complete jobs in-house instead of using outside
vendors. There are many examples of this over the years. Some of these include
designing and building a baffle system for the mixing tubes in the chlorine tanks and
building a cleaning device for the floors of the tanks. This device is able to clean the
floors without taking the tanks out of service; it also limits the need for harsh and
expensive chemicals, These are just a couple of instances where Robert has gone
above and beyond for his department. He is truly deserving of this award,
