BUDGET WITH CONFIDENCE

Low-price bids don’t always tell the whole truth. Because heavy equipment comes with costs beyond the sticker, from service to repairs to depreciation, and more. That’s why purchasing trade associations endorse Life Cycle Costing as a means to evaluate your agency’s capital equipment purchases.

When bidders disclose Life Cycle Costs, your agency will have more complete information and better options to consider. You’ll be able to budget operations and resources more effectively and minimize risks.

Caterpillar makes Life Cycle Cost proposals easy. Visit govbidspec.com to download bid specs, Life Cycle Cost forms and Scheduled Maintenance forms. Edit them to your agency’s needs and include them with your RFP to bidders.

Butler Machinery can show you the benefits of incorporating Life Cycle Costing into your agency’s RFPs. When you have all the facts, you’ll find Cat equipment delivers lower total costs and better return on investment.

An Initiative to Raise Awareness and Understanding of Counties

We encourages all county officials to help raise awareness about the es-sential services and programs county governments provide to our commu-nities. Here are some points to assist you in speaking to business leaders, community organizations, nonprofits, youth groups, faith-based organiza-tions and others about the role and responsibilities of county government. The suggested information below will help you discuss counties from a local perspective. Don’t be afraid to give it your own spin. Always try to bring printed information about your county for your audience.

Our County• Describe your home county and its government structure. Identify the titles of officials, their responsibilities and their term of office. Name the key departments and explain their function and the services they perform.• Describe your county’s history and significant events. Make sure to hand out informational pamphlets with facts about the county. Include useful phone numbers and website addresses.• Outline some of your county’s serv-ices and programs available to chil-dren, families, seniors, and veterans

and other groups.• Talk about your county’s budget. Explain how much of it is mandated spending by state and federal gov-ernment and how much is under local county authority.• Talk about how counties work together to lower costs and work ef-ficiently.

Counties Work Online Interactive Game to teach students about county governmentThe National Association of Counties (NACo) in partnership with iCivics has created the first online interactive game specifically related to county government. While letting students run their own county, Counties Work educates and guides students, grades 6 through 12, about the important roles and functions county government perform. Not only will the students be able to play the game in and out of the classroom, teachers will have curricu-lum, quizzes and web quests to help them in their lesson planning.

Please help spread the word to stu-dents, teachers and school districts about this new educational tool. www.naco.org/countieswork

“It’s critical [to pass the farm bill] before the election,” NACo President Lenny Elia-son told congressional aides at a briefing on the rural development title of the farm bill. Eliason, an Athens County, Ohio, commissioner, said passage is needed to allow farmers and others with an interest in the farm bill to plan for the future.

Passage this year, he said, would coun-ter Congress’s “do-nothing” image.

Lou Barron, a Linn County, Iowa, supervisor who chairs NACo’s Rural Action Caucus, also urged Democrats and Republicans in Congress to work together, contending that there is

bipartisanship in rural America, where potholes are not filled by Democrats or Republicans but because they “need to be filled.”

NACo represents the nation’s 3,068 counties, nearly two-thirds of which are designated as rural and have a population of more than 60 million people. The rural counties depend on the farm bill rural development title for infrastructure development, includ-ing provision of water and sewer in some of the country’s poorest areas, broadband, development of new rural clinics and hospitals, road and bridge construction and maintenance and financing of schools and businesses. Rep. Adrian Smith, R-Neb., told the group that the rural development title “will not be as contentious as the

nutrition title, where 78 percent of the money is, or the commodity title.""Most of the debate will be around crop insurance and food stamps,” Smith said. Rep. Mike McIntyre, D-N.C., said that programs to provide water and sewer services and fire protection are vital because communities can’t get compa-nies to provide jobs without adequate water and sewer, and that fire protec-tion reduces insurance rates.

The National Association of Develop-ment Organizations (NADO), which represents regional economic devel-opment agencies, NACo, and other groups are united in a Campaign for a Renewed Rural Development.

Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-5, Management of Domestic Incidents, directs the Secre-tary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to develop a National Incident Management System (NIMS). Initially published in March 2004, and revised in December of 2008, the NIMS provides a consistent national approach for Federal, State, tribal and local governments, the private sector, and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) to work together to prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate domestic incidents, regardless of cause, size or complexity. The adoption and imple-mentation of NIMS by State, tribal, and local organizations is a condition for receiving Federal preparedness assist-ance through grants, contracts and other activities as stated in HSPD-5.A basic premise of NIMS is that all

incidents begin and end locally. The Federal Government supports State, tribal and local authorities when their resources are overwhelmed or anticipat-ed to be overwhelmed. The intention of the Federal Government in these situa-tions is not to command the response, but rather to support the affected State, tribal and local authorities. This is most easily achieved when all the entities are participating in a unified system of emergency management and incident response.

NIMS compliance requires that all management and response personnel be trained under the Incident Command System (ICS). In order to maintain the eligibility for Federal grants, the State of South Dakota must be able to show that progress is being made in per-sonnel training under the NIMS/ ICS

concept.

Among some of the grants the State and local Governments effectively use are:Emergency Management Perform-ance Grant (EMPG) Program – this grant is used to help fund State and county emergency management person-nel and administrative expenses.State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) – used to purchase equipment and training to better protect critical infrastructure from terrorist attack.Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) – used by healthcare organiza-tions to protect their infrastructure and increase their capability to manage mass fatality incidents.Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program (AFG) – used by fire de-partments and EMS organizations to

acquire the tools and resources neces-sary to more effectively protect the health and safety of the public and their emergency response personnel.Staffing for Adequate Fire & Emer-gency Personnel Grants (SAFER) – Provides financial support to help fire departments increase their cadre of frontline firefighters through the hiring of firefighters and the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters.

To maintain the availability of Federal grants it is essential that State and local management, critical infrastructure, and response agencies/ organizations com-plete the appropriate level of Incident Command System training.

Incident Command System courses and training level requirements:IS-700: National Incident Management System, An Introduction – (available on line) The course provides training and resources for personnel who require a basic understanding of NIMS. The course is intended for all individuals with emergency management responsi-bilities including prevention, prepared-ness, response, recovery, and mitiga-tion.

IS-800: National Response framework, An Introduction – (available on line)The course provides an introduction to the National Response Framework. The course’s audience is government executives, private-sector and non-governmental organization leaders, and emergency management practitioners. This includes senior elected and ap-pointed leaders (such as agency heads, mayors and city or county officials who have responsibility to provide for effec-tive response).

ICS-100: Introduction to the Incident Command System – (available on line) The course provides training and

resources for personnel who require a basic understanding of the ICS. ICS-100 introduces ICS and provides the foundation for higher level ICS train-ing. This course describes the history, features and principles, and organiza-tional structure of the Incident Com-mand System. It also explains the re-lationship between ICS and the NIMS. Required of all personnel involved with emergency planning and response or recovery efforts. This course has disci-pline specific versions such as IS-100 LE for law enforcement and ICS-100 SC for school personnel.

ICS-200: ICS for Single Resources and Initial Action Incidents – (available on line) Thecourse is designed to enable personnel to operate efficiently during an incident or event within the ICS. This course focuses on the manage-ment of a single resource. Required of all personnel involved with emergency planning and response or recovery ef-forts.ICS-300: Intermediate ICS for Ex-panding Incidents – (classroom) The course provides training and resources

for personnel who require advanced application of the ICS. The course expands on the information covered in ICS-100 and ICS-200 courses. IS-700, IS-800, ICS-100 and ICS-200 courses are prerequisitesto the ICS-300 course. This course is intended for individuals who may assume a supervisory role in an expanding incident (for example – sergeants, lieutenants and other field command personnel).

ICS-400: Advanced ICS: (classroom) The course provides training and resources for personnel who require advanced application of the ICS. ICS-100-200-300 must be completed as pre-requisites before taking ICS-400. This course is intended for senior personnel who are expected to perform in a man-agement capacity in an area command or multiagency coordination entity (for example – command officers, chiefs and deputy chiefs).

They noted in a paper released last September that the rural development title does not have baseline for the next farm bill, but urged Congress and the Obama administration to work together to make sure the programs continue.

Eliason noted that his county recently provided water and sewer to 11,000 homes of low-income people, but said it couldn’t be done without funding from USDA’s water and sewer pro-gram.

He added that those homeowners are now paying $56 per month for service, but would have to pay an unaffordable $125 per home without funding from USDA to build the system. Without

water and sewer, Eliason said, it is impossible to attract businesses to a community.

Don Larson, a Brook-ings County, S.D., commissioner, urged the congressional aides to “come out to rural America and see the impact of one project called broad-band.” High-speed Internet service,

Larson said, means that “people can have a career even their mate in life is involved in agriculture.”

Eliason and Larson acknowledged that high commodity prices and rural development have made rural America

more prosperous than in the past, but USDA help is still needed to provide vital infrastructure. Eliason noted that rural America cannot depend on its own tax base because it does not have “the critical mass” of population.

The county officials said Congress and the Agriculture Department should give counties flexibility in dealing with programs and develop one defini-tion of “rural,” but also acknowledged that NACo is too diverse to take a position on the definition.

The 2008 farm bill called on the Ag-riculture Department to write a report on the many definitions of rural in ru-ral development programs and to give guidance to Congress on the defini-




Are inmate medical costs draining your county budgets?The South Dakota Association of County Commis-sioners (SDACC) is proud to partner with Correction-al Risk Services (CRS) to offer two programs to help South Dakota counties contain the costs of medical care for county inmates.

Choose from:Inmate Medical Claims Review Service: CRS will perform claims administration management for all county inmates housed in a county jail. Claims admin-istration management will include:

1. Determine if the medical treatment was actually delivered.2. Determine if the medical treatment was medically necessary.3. Provide hospital and physician discounts, where available, through our PPO network.4. Negotiate ‘quick pay’ discounts from providers whenever possible.5. Prepare checks to be sent to hospitals, physicians, and other medical care providers.6. Furnish explanations of payment.7. Provide detailed claims reports.8. Furnish Sheriff Department personnel with Inmate Provider Claim Cards.9. CRS retains a percentage of what they save on the billing. If there are no savings – there are no costs to the county.

Inmate Medical Budget Protector: CRS will provide inmate excess medical insurance for county inmates. The policy will include the Claims Administration Management and the following:

1. A $10,000 deductible per county inmate, per con-tract year.2. A policy limit up to $250,000 (less deductible) per inmate, per contract year.3. Covered charges include: a. Inpatient hospitalization b. Outpatient surgical charges c. Emergency room charges - if followed by a hos-pital admission d. Physicians’ & surgeons’ fees e. Anesthesiologists & radiologists charges, f. Nurses charges g. Diagnostic x-ray & laboratory services h. Dressings, drugs, & medicines dispensed in a hospital or outpatient facility i. Medical conditions such as cancer, heart, kidney, diabetes are covered illnesses j. Accidental injuries, fights, self-inflicted injuries, and attempted suicide.4. No pre-existing medical condition limitations after coverage has been in effect for 72 hours.

NOTE: This is a summary of the plan details. Please call SDACC at (605) 224-4554 for specific details.

Juvenile detention medical costs are also eligible for these programs!

Sheriffs’ departments and county governments are faced with the ever

increasing problem of providing medical, dental, and prescription drug benefits to an inmate population. In

today’s climate of rapidly rising hospital costs, sheriff and county

budgets are stretched beyond limit. Often times those budgets are exceeded

well in advance of year end.

We have over 4 million miles of roadway in the US, making it the largest highway system in the world! Millions of culverts are hidden underneath the roadways to channel water and prevent flooding.

There has been more attention and maintenance work done for above ground infrastructure, while the underground infrastructure is failing due to lack of maintenance and proper asset management practices.

Subsurface Inc. has invested time and money to bring the most technologically advanced trenchless solutions to the forefront to rehabilitate the existing structures without the cost and inconvenience of open cutting and detours.

OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND

We don’t have time for closed roads due to failed structures.

Hydro-Mechanical cleaning restores the drainage capacity of reinforced concrete culverts and corrugated metal culverts. Slip-lining of culverts using Culvert Renews “Thread Lock” design. We offer this culvert liner directly to the end user and provide training for the contractor, state or county that wishes to install them themselves. This solution allows traffic to continue uninterrupted. Cured In Place Pipe (CIPP) is a great option when lining a corroded out metal pipe and hydraulics cannot be sacrificed. RCP Joint Repair and Pipe Rehabilitation - Left unattended, joint separations continue to increase in size and voids created outside the pipe grow until the road bed settles, creating a dip or the road bed fails completely. Internal Void Grouting of External Voids is performed from inside of the reinforced concrete culvert by technicians trained to work in culverts as small in diameter as 24 inches.

County SpotlightWalworth CountyLargest City: MobridgeCounty Seat: SelbyPopulation: 5,438Organized: 1883Size: 708 square miles

Created in 1862, and organized in 1883, the county is named after Walworth County, Wisconsin by settlers from that area. The area played an integral part in transportation in South Dakota history by hosting station stops on the Minneapolis and Saint Louis Railway in Lowry and Akaska.

When the county was first organized, a principal village located at the mouth of the Moreau River named LeBeau after a Frenchman who settled the area was the first county seat. By a decision of the voters in November 1884, the county seat was moved to Bangor, nearly the geographical center of the county.

Early in the summer of 1900 began the long stuggle for the county seat of Walworth County between Selby and Bangor. The issue literally divided the county into two hostile camps. After years of court battles and records being tranfered between both locations, in 1908 Selby became the permanent county seat.

Akaska has several Sioux translations, one means “to eat up”, the other “uncertain”. The town was incorporated in 1907.

Glenham was founded in 1900 and incorporated in 1907. Many buildings from the ghost towns of Evarts, LeBeau, Briscoe and Bangor were moved to establish Glenham.

Java was given the name by the officials of the Mil-waukee railroad and was incorporated in 1903.

Lowry was named by settlers and railroad officials in 1907. The first consideration was Anderson-ville, for a local homesteader by the name of Lars Anderson, but decided it was too long. They settled on Lowry, for an official of the Minneapolis and St. Louis railroad. Mobridge is the largest city in Walworth County

and is also known for being one of five cities that bridged the Missouri River. The name of the town originated from a telegrapher’s contraction of the abbreviation for the Mis-souri and the bridge.

Selby was born in 1899 when buildings from the Bangor, then the county seat, were moved to the main line of the Milwaukee Railroad. The new town was named for a rail-road official and became incorporated in 1909.

NACo Calls for Passage of a Farm Bill Before This Year’s Election - Con’t

tion, but USDA has not yet submitted that report.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Undersecretary for Rural Development Dallas Tonsager have both said that coming up with a single definition is difficult because rural areas across the country are so different.

Experienced Capitol Hill aides have said the reason there are so many definitions is because lawmakers who have written sections of past farm bills have wanted to make sure their districts got included in a specific pro-gram, while also wanting to make sure that the money did not get siphoned off to urban areas.

Both USDA and NACo officials have said that the definitions are increas-ingly problematic as rural America changes and has more interaction with nearby urban areas.

Representing both NACo and NADO at a House Agriculture subcommittee hearing last month, Larson said, “Our organizations encourage you to avoid getting bogged down in the regional fights that erupt when definitions are considered. Instead, we encourage you to focus on providing enhanced flex-ibility for USDA Rural Development’s state offices to provide assistance that fits the uniquely rural nature of their states, by focusing on serving rural regions, both multi-town and multi-county.”

Eliason said today that NACo would leave the definition of rural America up to Congress and the Agriculture Department, and that he believes “a majority of people” will accept what-ever that definition is.

He also said that the government should come with a way to simplify application forms and allow counties to use the same application to differ-ent federal agencies when more than one agency is involved in a project or solving a problem. The departments of Housing and Urban Development and Health and Human Services have

already made progress have already on their application forms, he said.

In a paper on the farm bill released last September, the Campaign for a Renewed Rural Development said:

• USDA should clarify its mission to

HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE FOREMAN for HUGHES COUNTY move beyond its role “as a lender of last resort helping individuals and communities” to become the catalyst for organizing all federal, state, regional and local actors to work together with a goal “that rural individuals, communities and regions have the best chance to thrive, not merely survive.”

• The Rural Development division of USDA should give up requiring communities and regions to fit the criteria for very specific programs and make it easier for county, multi-county and even multi-state regional partnerships to work to-gether and qualify for funding.

• All existing Rural Development programs should provide an advantage to applications from programs that are coordinated with regional development plans and give a bonus in funding for programs that fit in with regional development plans.

• Rural Development should con-tinue to provide technical assist-ance to small rural communities with few or no full-time staff and experience in planning and secur-ing funding for large infrastruc-ture and economic development projects.

• Congress should authorize a technical assistance set-aside for small communities to provide vital services such as public safety, health care and education.

• Rural Development should create an online searchable database, which would allow Congress and the public to view all USDA ap-plicants and funded projects.
