Finally, the rehabilitation and replacement plan <br />should include a capital improvement plan that addresses proper <br />management and protection of the infrastructure assets. The plan <br />shall include a time schedule for implementing the short- and <br />long-term plans plus a schedule for developing the funds needed <br />for the capital improvement plan; <br />(d) Provide training on a regular basis for staff in sanitary sewer <br />system operations and maintenance, and require contractors to <br />be appropriately trained; and <br />
