Fleet service group

WEP has numerous vehicles that are used in servicing treatment plants and other facilities. The vehicles are maintained by the Department's Fleet Service Group.

The Fleet Service Group is active with other County departments, too, from its two locations at the Syracuse Metropolitan Sewage Treatment Plant. One location specializes in large trucks and heavy equipment; the other deals with lighter vehicles.

WEP's Fleet Service Group keeps County-owned vehicles—such as sheriff's cars, minivans, sport utility vehicles, mowing equipment, tractors, heavy trucks, and construction equipment—on the road. It also handles other vehicle-related issues. It writes the specifications for all County vehicles, except those used in the Department of Transportation. For example, it wrote the specifications for the County's truck for the SWAT Command Unit and for the mobil emergency response unit.

It routinely works with the following departments:

Water Environment Protection including Flood Control	Emergency Command 911
Facilities Management	Hillbrook Detention
District Attorney	Fire Coordinator
Social Services	Motor Pool
Corrections	Health Department
Van Duyn Home and Hospital	Sheriff
Library

The Fleet Service Group also services all County-owned miscellaneous equipment such as pumps and compressors.

The staff of the Light truck and vehicle maintenance makes every effort to keep the County's maintenance costs down in the repair of County-owned vehicles to save taxpayers' money.
