SUBJECT: "Employee of the Year" P . R. I .D. E . Winner
The P .R. I .D . E . Committee met on January 27 , 1994 to select the
Employee of the Year for 1993 . The suggestions were carefully
rated and Steve Tatich' s suggestion came out to be number one for
the year 1993 .
At the Stillwater Wastewater Treatment Plant, the aeration blower
produces air that supplies oxygen to the waste, which keeps
valuable bacteria alive . Often times the blowers put out more air
than is necessary to run the process . This steady use led to high
energy costs . Steve Tatich suggested that by building a software
timer to cycle the aeration blower on and off it would provide the
amount of air necessary without wasting air and power. Mr . Tatich
built the software timer and it has been in use since April of
1993 . This has saved the City to date approximately $15 , 000 .
