FIRST READING: SECOND READING: EFFECTIVE DATE: RESOLUTION 20-2016-17 A RESOLUTION AMENDING PERSONNEL POLICY 03-1 RELATIVE TO PROTECTIVE FOOTWEAR BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE: That City of Clarksville Personnel Policy 03-1, relative to protective footwear, is hereby amended by deleting the language effective March 6, 2003, and by substituting instead the language attached hereto as Exhibit A. ADOPTED: PERSONNEL POLICY 03-1 SUBJECT: PROTECTIVE FOOTWEAR PURPOSE Each affected employee shall wear protective footwear when working in areas where there is a danger of foot injuries due to falling or rolling objects, or objects piercing the sole, and where such employee's feet are exposed to electrical and hazardous substances. This policy incorporates the requirements of the U.S. OSHA Regulations 1910.136, Occupational Foot Protection and ASTM F-2413-2005 (Standard Specification for Performance Requirements for Protective Footwear), or the most recent version. POLICY STATEMENT: It is the responsibility of each department to perform a workplace hazard assessment to determine the need for specific foot protection, which employees require foot protection, and to ensure that appropriate foot protection is being worn. Employees are responsible for their own safe use of foot protection. They shall wear the approved foot protection as part of their work uniform and follow manufacturer recommendations for their footwear. Safety shoes shall be required for all seasonal part-time and/or summer help, where required, a cost to which the employee is responsible. Management/Supervisors are responsible for implementing an appropriate foot protection program for individuals, work, and areas under their direction. They shall: A. Evaluate all their work areas and tasks and assess the risk for foot injuries, plus slips, trips, falls, and electrical shock. B. Determine the need for specific foot protection. C. Ensure employees are wearing appropriate, approved foot protection. D. Provide adequate storage and care capability if needed. E. Ensure foot protection requirements are being followed. The City Health & Safety Manager shall: A. Provide professional consultation and guidance to management for all foot protection program elements. B. Audit the foot protection program and assist management in developing effective strategies for indicated improvement. EMPLOYEE ALLOTMENT The City of Clarksville shall purchase protective footwear that meets the ASTM F-2413-2005 criteria up to the amount of one-hundred and twenty five dollars ($125) per year for full-time employees. Note: At this time, there is no legal requirement for the City to provide employees with protective equipment that is considered personal in nature, such as protective footwear. At the discretion of the Department Head, protective footwear that is destroyed due to a work- related accident, catastrophic events, hazardous substances, chemical spill, or other similar event beyond normal wear, tear, and use may be replaced by the department. IMPLEMENTATION: A. Perform hazard assessment of department worksites to determine the need for and type of foot protection B. Ensure employees select appropriate, approved foot protection. C. All protective footwear shall meet the requirements of ASTM F-2413-2005: 1. Protective footwear is intended to provide protection for the toes against external forces through the use of a protective toe box. Compression and impact resistant protective footwear shall be rated no less than C/75, I/75, and Mt75. 2. Employees conducting electrical work such as building/facility maintenance, traffic signal maintenance, sewer lift pump maintenance, etc. shall wear protective footwear with an (EH) electrical hazard rating. EH footwear is manufactured with non- conductive, electrical shock-resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide a secondary source of electric shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the hazards from an incidental contact with live electrical circuits, electrically energized conductors, parts or apparatus. It must be capable of withstanding the application of 18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with no current flow or leakage current in excess of one milliampere under dry conditions. The label printed or sewn onto the shoe shall have “EH” indicated. D. The identification of all protective footwear certified as meeting the requirements of this procedure shall follow a consistent pattern. One shoe of each pair shall be clearly and legibly identified in letters and numbers by stitched-in labels, stamping, and/or pressure- sensitized labels. The labels shall identify the shoe as complying with the standard, the year of the standard, gender, and which sections of the standard the shoe complies with. Line #1: ASTM F2413-11 This line identifies the ASTM standard. It indicates that the protective footwear meets the performance requirements of ASTM F2413 issued in 2011. Line #2: M I/75 C/75 Mt75 This line identifies the gender (M [Male] or F [Female]) of the user. It also identifies the existence of impact resistance (I), the impact resistance rating (75 foot-pounds), compression resistance (C) and the compression resistance rating (75) which correlates to 2500 pounds of compression. The metatarsal designation (Mt) and rating (75 foot-pounds) is also identified. Lines 3 & 4: PR Lines 3 and 4 are used to identify footwear made to offer protection from other specific types of hazards referenced in the standard. They are used to designate conductive (Cd) properties, electrical hazard resistance properties (EH), footwear designed to reduce the accumulation of excess static electricity (SD) and puncture resistance (PR). Conductive (Cd) footwear is intended to provide protection for the wearer against hazards that may result from static electricity buildup and to help reduce the possibility of ignition of explosives or volatile chemicals. The footwear must facilitate electrical conductivity and the transfer of static electricity buildup from the body to the ground. The electrical resistance must range between zero and 500,000 ohms. Electrical hazard (EH) footwear is manufactured with non-conductive, electrical shock- resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide a secondary source of electric shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the hazards from an incidental contact with live electrical circuits, electrically energized conductors, parts or apparatus. It must be capable of withstanding the application of 18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with no current flow or leakage current in excess of one milliampere under dry conditions. Static dissipative (SD) footwear is designed to provide protection against hazards that may exist due to excessively low footwear resistance, as well as maintain a sufficiently high level of resistance to reduce the possibility of electric shock. The footwear must have a lower limit of electrical resistance of 106 ohms and an upper limit of 108 ohms. Puncture-resistant (PR) footwear is designed so that a puncture-resistant plate is positioned between the insole and outsole. It is an integral and permanent part of the footwear. Devices constructed of metal must pass the ASTM B117-11 Standard Practice for Operating Salt Spray (Fog Apparatus) corrosion resistance testing. The device must show no sign of corrosion after being exposed to a five percent salt solution for 24 hours. The puncture-resistant footwear must show no signs of cracking after being subjected to 1.5 million flexes and have a minimum puncture resistance of 270 pounds. Example label for a female Street Department employee who conducts concrete finishing:  ASTM F2413-11  F I/75/C/75/Mt75 Example label for a male Building Maintenance employee who conducts electrical maintenance work:  ASTM F2413-11  M I/75/C/75/Mt75  EH E. Employees who are exposed to foot hazards AND who regularly operate heavy equipment, large trucks or frequently enter/exit vehicles, must wear protective footwear that extends above the ankle. F. Employees may use local shoe vendors provided that the protective footwear purchased meets the aforementioned requirements and the vendors have been approved through the Purchasing Department. Purchases shall be made with Purchase Orders or City issued P- cards. If footwear is purchased through a local vendor, it is the supervisor’s and/or Department Head’s responsibility to inspect the protective footwear for ASTM F2413 compliance. G. Departments may host mobile footwear vendors and arrange direct billing at their discretion. If such vendors are used, the vendor must supply a statement that the footwear meets ASTM F2413. These vendors shall also be preapproved through the Purchasing Department. H. To limit costs and prevent damage to an employee’s protective footwear, departments should issue appropriate over-boots in situations such as sewer work and work around chemicals, catastrophic events, hazardous substances, concrete, or other materials. I. No affected employee may work without protective footwear where there is a danger of foot injuries due to falling or rolling objects or objects piercing the sole, and where such employee's feet are exposed to electrical and hazardous substances. If anyone needs information on what type of foot protection is appropriate, contact your department’s Health & Safety Coordinator or the Health & Safety Manager located in the Human Resources Department. POLICY CHANGES: Any and all revisions to this policy that will change the employee allotment amount shall be approved by the City of Clarksville Finance & Administration Committee. All other substance revisions made to this policy shall be approved by the Human Resources Director. THIS POLICY IS SUBJECT TO REVISION WITHOUT NOTICE.

The chief financial officer/comptroller and the gas manager are hereby authorized to pass gas cost adjustments on to customers, whether increases or decreases, from the supplier of the city gas system to maintain the balanced efficiency of the gas department. The mayor, public utilities committee members and other governmental officials shall be apprised of such increases or decreases, as the case may be, whenever they occur. PASS THROUGH ADJUSTMENT (PTA) Due to the volatility of the unregulated cost of gas at the wellhead, all city gas and water department residential, commercial and high load factor rate classes will be adjusted monthly, increased or decreased, by a value called the "Pass Through Adjustment" or PTA. The PTA adjustment is intended to assure that the city gas and water department adjusts for these volatile changes in the wellhead cost of gas. The "base" cost of gas is the city gas and water department average annual city gate cost of gas. This includes the actual gas plus the interstate pipeline volumetric costs involved in transporting the gas from the source of supply to our city gate regulator station. This cost is established annually and will remain stable throughout our fiscal year (July 1 through June 30). The "monthly" cost of gas is the city gas and water department actual city gate cost of gas compared to the base cost of gas. If the monthly cost of gas exceeds the base cost of gas, the amount will be an increase. If the monthly cost of gas is less than the base cost of gas, the amount will be a decrease. The cost of gas at the wellhead, or source of supply, has been unregulated for years and is affected by free market factors such as supply, demand and competition. The city gas and water department does not profit from the PTA adjustment. It adjusts for the city gas and water department monthly city gate gas costs only. It does not affect operation and maintenance, fixed demand costs, or other costs incurred by the utility. The PTA will be calculated monthly on the last business day of each month to be applied to the first billing that follows. Any balance over or under recovery of gas cost at the end of each month may be passed through the subsequent month PTA accordingly. The "pass through adjustment" shall be effective on bills rendered on or after November 1, 2005. (Ord. No. 17‐2005‐06, 10‐6‐05) Editor's note— Ord.

(1) Availability. WACOG interruptible gas service rate shall be available for eligible commercial or industrial customers for all purposes where the department's distribution mains are suitable for supplying the desired service. The department shall establish guidelines to determine customers eligibility for this service. The customer shall maintain, in a usable condition, facilities for substitute fuel or shall otherwise make provisions for the curtailment of gas service hereunder and shall agree to use such substitute facilities or curtailment provisions in order to curtail the use of gas up to one hundred (100) percent of the maximum requirements immediately upon verbal notice from the department and, after such curtailment, shall refrain from increasing the use of gas until permitted to do so by the department. It is understood and agreed that the department will have the right to cut off gas service to the customer in the event the customer fails to curtail his use of gas in accordance with the department's verbal notice of curtailment. (2) Rate. The rate shall be variable as computed by the department using the weighted average cost of gas (WACOG) plus forty‐eight cents ($0.48) per MCF (1,000 CF) for all gas consumed per month. The department shall compute two (2) separate WACOG rates each month: (1) a market‐based WACOG rate; and (2) a fixed‐variable WACOG rate. For the market‐based WACOG rate, the department shall compute the commodity costs of gas supply as the first of the month index price as published in Inside FERC's Gas Market Report for deliveries into Tennessee Gas Pipeline—Zone 1 per MMBtu, plus fuel, converted to Mcf. For the fixed‐variable WACOG rate, the department shall compute the commodity cost of gas supply as equal to the department's per unit commodity cost of gas supply per MMBtu, including all purchases of fixed price gas, variable priced gas, and hedged gas prices, plus fuel. Each industrial interruptible WACOG customer may make an annual election to take market‐based WACOG pricing for the upcoming twelve (12) months by providing notice in writing to the department by no later than August 15th, with such election to be effective on September 1st. If a WACOG customer does not make such an election, it shall receive fixed‐variable WACOG pricing for the next twelve‐month period. Except as provided herein for the computation of the commodity cost of gas supply, the computation of the market‐based WACOG rate and the fixed‐variable WACOG rate shall be identical. The upstream pipeline transportation and storage costs component of the WACOG rate shall be as computed by the department so as to reflect an allocation of such costs determined by the department to be appropriate under all of the circumstances presented but no less than the unit cost of interruptible transportation service on the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company System. The department, the mayor, and the gas, water and sewer committee (the utilities committee) of the city council shall have the authority, under circumstances where it is economically feasible and beneficial for the city to do so, to modify the specific terms of the natural gas sales agreement entered into between the department and a specific industrial end use consumer under this section 13‐219 as the department, the mayor, and the utilities committee of the city council deem necessary to induce such consumer to locate plant facilities in the city or the city service area, or to locate plant expansions that will increase the consumer's usage of natural gas at its facilities in the city or the city service area, rather than locating such plant facilities or plant expansions in other locations not serve by the department. (3) Minimum bill. For services rendered under this WACOG rate, the minimum monthly bill shall be one hundred dollars ($100.00) net with a minimum annual net billing of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000.00). (4) Payment terms. All bills for services are due upon presentation and the above‐stated net rates shall be allowed if payment is made on or before the last day for payment as specified on the bill. Payments made after that day shall be for the gross amount, which will be greater by ten (10) percent than the net billing. (5) Contract period and billing. Contracts shall be for a period of one year with monthly payment of service taken. The customer shall not be allowed to switch from this contract rate during the period covered. (6) Penalty for unauthorized use. In the event a customer uses gas in excess of the daily volumes allowed by the department during a curtailment period, the customer agrees to pay, in addition to the regular rate, an amount the department is penalized by the supplier and/or pipeline for the twelve‐month period immediately following the month in which the breaching of the curtailment agreement occurred. Each unauthorized use of gas, whether occurring in the same month or in different months of a contract year, will be subject to a separate penalty. (1963 Code, § 28‐70, Ord.
