DEPARTMENT OF LABOR CONTACTED ABOUT EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES OVERTIME: Mr. Joel Mashburn
requested that the board give him permission to contact Department of Labor to request an extension
of time on the matter of the Emergency Medical Services overtime payment. He explained that the
County intends to comply totally with the rules and regulations, but there are some differences that
should be reviewed insofar as interpretation. This should be resolved by the time the board meets
on August 21st, Mr. Mashburn said.
Mr. Mashburn said he was requested by the County Attorney to invite a member of the Department
of Labor to the next board meeting.
Commissioner Bryan said one of the problems DOL has had with the rules in this matter is the
interpretation. They are interpreting the laws the way it is written rather than the intent of the
law, he said. He believed that a bill introduced to help clarify this would be helpful. He
suggested that this be taken up with the delegates in Asheville at the annual statewide convention
of county commissioners this weekend.
PACKAGE TREATMENT PLANTS: Commissioner Bryan said he had recently stated he was vehemently
opposed to package treatment plants and would vote against any that were brought up for approval by
the board. He said he has reconsidered his feelings on this matter and thought it would be better
to have a county ordinance strong enough, enforceable enough, and with penalties enough, so that if
the County says it is all right to have these things, then the County should have a right to
regulate them. Obviously the State does not have the manpower to do the regulations, he said.
The Health Department says it would take one to one and one-half persons to monitor these on a
monthly basis. Mr. Bryan said someone is going to have to take the responsibility for regulating
the package treatment plants. He especially mentioned the state of the schools' treatment plants
and the need for monitoring.
