was established in 1989.

PLANT MANAGEMENT DIVISION
Edward C. Schlauch, Chief

Baltimore, MD 21201 225-4260

The Plant Management Division implements
the Comprehensive Maintenance and Repair Pro-
gram. Regularly, the Division inspects all State
facilities included in the Program in order to identify
preventive maintenance tasks and verify the condi-
tion of the facilities. The Division also administers
a program of preventive maintenance and opera-
tional review for all public school buildings, both
elementary and secondary At the request of the
Board of Public Works and as a service to the
Interagency Committee on School Construction,
the Division annually reports on the physical con-
dition of the public schools. The report is used to
identify and correct any maintenance deficiencies
found at the schools.
The Division helps physical plant superinten-
dents establish maintenance guidelines and
provides engineering and technical advice on main-
tenance projects. The Division also prepares plans
and specifications for certain maintenance projects
and reviews all maintenance contracts prior to their
submission to the Department's Procurement
Review Board or to the Board of Public Works. This
review ensures that work requested is justified, con-
tract specifications are accurate, and prices are com-
petitive.
In addition, the Division conducts an energy
conservation program. Under this program, the
Division monitors monthly field reports from each
State facility to identify abnormal energy consump-
tion. Any irregularities are investigated and correc-
tive measures are recommended in the Division's
Annual Maintenance Status Report.
