Chantenor Chr~ina Dra pdated the Board on the comprehensive institutional effectiveness revie that continues at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. As di.s~ussed at the NovetJlber Boatjd meeting, the campus continues working on their three­ step s -·ategy. She stated_ they had proposed three rounds of budget cuts in order to balance FY20 wi~ r spect to the loss of revenue resulting from enrollment decline. They have completed ~o tounds lp:li preparing for the third that will get them to under $4 million. The balance will be.;nade up through lapsed salaries and other expenditure savings such as travel. At this time. they have no idea how the corona virus will affect the FY20 budget but feel that most of tne impact will be in FY21.

Dr. Drale stated they have completed the reorganization proposal for their five academic colleges. The three new academic colleges are: (1) Donaghey College of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics; (2) College of Business, Health and Human Services; and (3) College of Humanities, Arts, Social Sciences and Education. The reorganization of the academic colleges will save approximately $1 million. The college Board of Trustees Meeting March 18-19, 2020 Page 43

Once those were completed, Provost Ann Bain and her academic planning team started reviewing all academic programs and for each program determining whether to leave as the~ are, reduce in size, or whether they are candidates for elimination. She stated the Facuitr Senate has been very engaged and put together an ad hoc academic planning cturunittee that will also make recommendations. After receiving and reviewing all reco_punendations, Dr. Drale will put together a preliminary retrenchment proposal and submit a for~ etrenchment plan for the May 21-22, 2020 Board meeting.

Certificate ofProficiency in Phlebotomy

NEW PROGRAM

A. Curriculum Outline - List of courses in new program, required courses underlined: PHL 1054 Tech Phlebotomy PHL 1062 Tech Phlebotomy Practicum HIT 1023 Tech Law and Ethics in Healthcare

B. Total Semester Credit Hours: 9

C. New Courses and New Course Descriptions: No new courses required for the proposed program. All courses are existing and have been offered successfully.

D. Program Goals and Objectives: The Phlebotomy Certificate of Proficiency provides basic anatomy and physiology; medical terminology; ethical, legal and regulatory issues; safety measures; infection control; special collections; how to avoid errors to becoming successful in collection and transfer of blood specimens in veni and capillary blood collections. The Phlebotomy Certificate of Proficiency introduces the student to basic laboratory techniques and prepares students to perform entry level venipunctures and dermal punctures.

E. Student demand (projected enrollment) for Proposed Program: Currently UAM-CTC offers the courses that will be included in the proposed Phlebotomy Certificate of Proficiency through other programs. The creation of the Phlebotomy Certificate of Proficiency would allow students the option of adding a program specific exit point. In Fall 2019 five (5) students successfully completed PHL l 054 Tech Phlebotomy, with four (4) of those students enrolling in PHL 1062 Tech Phlebotomy Practicum for Spring 2020 indicating interest in the coursework, and potential program. Target enrollment would be an average of seven (7) students per year. These students could be drawn from different areas including the following: Pending Practical Nursing Students - Students who plan to enroll in the Practical Nursing (PN) program must complete core prerequisites before being considered for admission into the PN program. These students often seek additional related coursework while completing prerequisites. A limited number of students are admitted into the PN program, and students who are not admitted on their first attempt have indicated a desire to complete additional healthcare related coursework to supplement learning and provide additional employment opportunities while waiting to re-apply for the PN program. A CP in Phlebotomy would provide these students additional avenues for learning and skill development in a closely related field. Health Information Technology Students - Students who are completing the Health Information Technology program and seeking job placement in clinics, physicians' offices or small, rural hospitals may find their employability improved by obtaining this skill based Certificate of Proficiency. Research indicated job opportunities for individuals who had healthcare office skills and the ability to complete phlebotomy duties. Since these two programs share a course (HIT 1023 Tech Law and Ethics in Healthcare) students will find an established link between the two occupations and programs. Career Pathways Students - Students in the Career Pathways program are often seeking a short term programs which can be completed quickly to give them employable skills to enter the workforce. Students could complete the CP in Phlebotomy and enter the workforce with marketable skills. These students could also complete the CP in Nursing Assistant while completing the CP in Phlebotomy. These two aligned programs can be offered in the same semester and students could enroll in both to increase marketable skills. New Students - As this program will provide a new CP option for this region it is expected that new students will be recruited from local high school health profession programs and medical facilities needing knowledgeable/skilled individuals to work in the field of venipuncture and capillary blood collections. These facilities can include hospitals, clinics, physicians' offices, and blood/plasma collection industries/organization.

F. NEW PROGRAM COSTS - for the first 5 years:

New administrative cost None

Number of new facuJty and cost No new faculty will be required. Current adjunct Phlebotomy instructor and existing Health Information Technology instructor(s) will teach the courses in the program.

New library resources and cost None

New Instructional equipment and cost Students currently enrolled in Phlebotomy courses utilize equipment provided by the Practical Nursing program. There will be a need to purchase program-specific supplies amounting to about $500 per year, $2,500.00 for five years.

Distance delivery costs (if applicable) None

Other new cost None

Sources of Program Funding UAM-CTC will use current state general revenue sources for the funding of faculty salaries for the courses that are already in existence.

2 The projected annual student enrollment, the amount ofstudent tuition per credit hour, and the total cost ofthe program that includes tuition andfees per year.

$824.70 for 7 hours annually for max enrollment of 10 students = $8247.00 tuition and mandatory fees.

Departmental fees will be approximately $58.00 per student annually = $580.00

TO MEMBERS OF THE ACADEMIC AND STUDENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE: Dr. Ed Fryar, Chair Dr. Stephen Broughton Mr. Cliff Gibson Mr. Sheffield Nelson Ms. Kelly Eichler

Dear Committee Members:

Chancellor Debbie Frazier, University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville, requests approval to reconfigure the Associate of Applied Science in Business Services to create a new Associate of Applied Science and Technical Certificate in Management and Supervision.

UACCB proposes to reconfigure and eventually delete the AAS in Business Services and replace with the proposed AAS in Management and Supervision. The proposed degree is designed primarily with the non-traditional student in mind, likely a student who has several years or more of work experience in the business industry, and is interested in upskilling for advancement in their current or future place of employment to a mid-level manager or supervisory position. Six new courses are required for the new program; however, with the deletion of the AAS in Business Services, no new funding is required.

I concur with this recommendation. Attached is a resolution for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Donald R. Bobbitt, President Charles E. Scharlau Presidential Leadership Chair

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS THAT the proposal of the University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville to reconfigure the existing Associate of Applied Science in Business Services to create a new Associate of Applied Science and Technical Certificate in Management and Supervision is hereby approved.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT if enrollment and budget goals have not been met upon evaluation of the program after five years the program will be discontinued.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the President is hereby authorized to submit these proposals to the Arkansas Division of Higher Education for appropriate action. UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS COMMUNITY COLLEGE AT BATESVILLE

Associate ofApplied Science in Management and Supervision Technical Certificate in Management and Supervision

RECONFIGURATION OF EXISTING DEGREE TO CREATE A NEW DEGREE

UACCB offers an Associate of Science in Business and an Associate of Applied Science in Business Services. The AS. in Business is a state-wide degree and is designed for transfer. The A.AS. in Business Services is designed as a terminal degree for those students wanting to enter the workforce. Coursework among the two degrees is relatively identical, with the A.S. in Business having greater general education requirements. Both programs have struggled to maintain sufficient levels of student enrollment.

This curriculum change proposes to reconfigure, inactivate and eventually delete the A.AS. in Business Services into an A.A.S. in Management and Supervision and a Technical Certificate in Management and Supervision (see attached degree plan). The logic behind this proposal is as follows: The AS. in Business is designed for transfer and will likely appeal to the traditional student who has little to no work experience in the business industry. These students are more likely to be pursuing a bachelor degree and eventually entering the business industry at above an entry level position. The A.A.S. in Management and Supervision degree has been designed primarily with the non-traditional student in mind, likely a student who has several years or more of work experience in the business industry and is interested in upskilling for advancement in their current or future place of employment to a mid-level manager or supervisory position.

Major courses in the A.A.S. in Management and Supervision degree will build upon the students' work experiences and include topics such as public relations, ethics, management, marketing, leadership, finance, human resource management, customer relations management, conflict management, and project management.

The Arkansas Division of Higher Education Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) to Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) crosswalk lists CIP 52.0204, Office Management and Supervision, aligning with SOC 43-1011, First-Line Supervisors of Office and Administrative Support Workers. CIP 52.0204 is defined as "A program that prepares individuals to supervise and manage the operations and personnel of business offices and management-level divisions. Includes instruction in employee supervision, management, and labor relations; budgeting; scheduling and coordination; office systems operation and maintenance; office records management, organization, and security; office facilities design and space management; preparation and evaluation of business management data; and public relations." SOC 43-1011 is defined as "Directly supervise and coordinate the activities of clerical and administrative support workers."

The median United States hourly wage for SOC 43-1011 for 2018 was $26.83 ($55,810.00 annually). The median Arkansas hourly wage was $21.54 ($44,810.00 annually). The national projected job growth rate is reported as "little or no change". Total U.S. projected job openings for 2018-2028 is 161,100.

Projected job openings for Arkansas is better with a projected growth rate of 7% and projected annual job openings is 1,640. All proceeding data is from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. On a local level, Emsi, lnc. identifies 202 annual job openings within a 40 mile radius of Batesville. When expanded to a 100 mile radius, the number of annual job openings increases to 2,037. ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE - MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION The Associate of Applied Science in Management and Supervision degree is designed for studeots who wish to enter the workforce as mid-management employees. Students will take courses from a variety of Management and Supervision disciplines to make them well-rounded, highly-productive personnel. UACCB's A.A.S. in Management and Supervision degree consists of 18 credit hours of general education requirements and 42 credit hours in Management and Supervision classes.

TO MEMBERS OF THE ACADEMIC AND STUDENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE: Dr. Ed Fryar, Chair Dr. Stephen Broughton Mr. Cliff Gibson Mr. Sheffield Nelson Ms. Kelly Eichler

Dear Committee Members:

As you might recall from the Board's March 19th meeting, I gave a short presentation on the current higher education climate concerning tuition and fees, and recommended that the Board table addressing this issue. At the Trustee's special meeting held on April 8th, and in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board approved, "tuition and fee levels at the two- and four-year institutions across the system to remain flat for the fall 2020 semester ... (and) that the Board will work with the UA System and campus administrations to monitor the economic situation in the coming months before establishing tuition rates for the spring 2021 semester."

In compliance with the Board's directive, the attached documents indicate current and proposed amounts for each of the campuses. I recommend approval of the proposed amounts. A resolution for your consideration is as follows:

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS THAT the proposed tuition and fees for the 2020-2021 fiscal year for the University of Arkansas campuses are hereby adopted and approved.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT tuition and fee levels may be reevaluated prior to the spring 2021 semester should the economic condition necessitate such action.

Sincerely,

The College of Medici ne is requesting a 0% increase in base tuition (including no increase in the fees that were rolled into tuition for the FY 17-18 year). Since 2015, our tuition has increased such that we now exceed the national median tuition for public schools. We are at about the 55th percentile schools and we are well above the regional median also. Given the concerns about increasing student debt and our recent citation from the LCME concerning such debt, our recommendation is that we aim to return to the 25th percentile among US public schools, or at least to the regional

The College of Nursing is requesting a 3.0% increase in resident base tuition for undergraduate programs and a 4.9% increase in resident base graduate programs. No increase in resident fees for undergraduate and graduate programs is being requested. No increase is being requested for non-resident tuition and fees for undergraduate or graduate programs. These recommendations will continue to keep tuition competitive the State and the Southern Region. It is expected that tuition and fees will increase for the comparison programs as they have done so in previous years. When compared to other nursing colleges in Arkansas and the Southern Region, the BSN program is only slightly above average while the graduateprograms are below average in ammal cost. No increase in tuition and fees for either program was requested in FY2019.

Boozman College of Public I leaHh is wilhtn the second quartile. There was no tuition increase a year ago, but costs continue to rise. The COPH proposes a modest increase in order to ensure the maintenance of quality across its numerous degree programs.

The Graduate School is requesting a modest increase of2.2% in full-time student tuition for Fall 2020. Even with this increase, Graduate School tuition is still substantially below regional peer comprehensive academic health centers.

Dear Dr. Bobbilt:

Pursuant to the Board of Trustees· requirement for approval of material changes to the budget, I am requesting a budget adjustment to increase the capital gifts and grants budget in the amount of $570,000 which increases this budget from the Board approved budget by 44 percent. This adjustment is the result of the value of the Hatcher Wrestling Center gift appraising at a higher value than we included in our original budget.

EMR: Experience Modification Rate (EMR) has strong impact upon a business. It is a number used by insurance companies to gauge both past cost of injuries and future chances of risk. The lower the EMR of your business, the lower your worker compensation insurance premiums will be. An EMR of 1.0 is considered the Industry average. EMR numbers are based on a 3-year rolling average.

BOND RATE: We acknowledge bond rates as a measure of company health. Bond rates generally vary with the size of the contract and are expressed to us as dollar per 1000 dollars. Lower bond rates are more favorable.

TO MEMBERS OF THE BUlLDINGS AND GROUNDS COMMITTEE: Mr. Morril Harriman, Chair Mr. Tommy Boyer Dr. Stephen Broughton Mr. Steve Cox Mr. Ted Dickey Dr. Ed Fryar

Dear Committee Members:

Vice President of the Division of Agriculture Mark J. Cochran requests authorization to enter into an Energy Cost Savings Contract (ECSC) that includes a Solar Services Agreement (SSA) with Entegrity Energy Partners for the purchase of electricity produced by solar photo-voltaic production arrays. Entegrity is a vendor pre-qualified by the Arkansas Energy Office pursuant to the Arkansas Guaranteed Energy Cost Savings Act, and the ECSC and SSA would include energy cost guarantees pursuant to the Act. The Agreement has been reviewed by the Arkansas Energy Office and the Office of General Counsel.

The Division proposes to purchase power from arrays at an off-site location acquired by Entegrity. Under the terms of the Agreement, Entegrity will provide all capital costs, design, permitting, installation, operations and maintenance of the solar array and then provide energy as a service to the Division. The Division would agree to purchase from Entegrity the entire output of each array at a rate specified in the Agreement. The term is 25 years. Entegrity will also guarantee annual minimum production of the array. The Contract would provide the Division a purchase option.

Final execution and terms of the Agreement would be subject to legal review and approval by UA System General Counsel, and under terms and conditions agreeable to the Division.

I concur with Dr Cochran's recommendation and have attached a resolution for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Donald R. Bobbitt, President Charles E. Scharlau Presidential Leadership Chair

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS THAT the University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture is authorized to enter into an Energy Cost Savings Contract and a Solar Services Agreement with Entegrity Energy Partners ("Entegrity") for the location of a solar photo-voltaic production array on property acquired by Entegrity along with the purchase of electricity produced by the array, subject to the General Counsel's approval of the terms and conditions of the Solar Services Agreement and related agreements.

Messrs. Hollingsworth & Martz,

The revised Solar Services Agreement (SSA) proposals for the University of Arkansas - Fayetteville (UA-F) and University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture (UADA), as submitted by Entegrity Energy Partners, have been extensively reviewed by the Department of Energy and Environment, Division of Environmental Quality - Arkansas Energy Office (AEO). These are unique project proposals within the Arkansas Energy Performance Contracting (AEPC) Program, given the newness of the SSA financing structure and nascent photovoltaics industry in Arkansas. We would note the efforts all parties have made over the preceding months to create a workable structure to best protect the interests of both UAF and UADA. We have attempted to detail our findings regarding the relative value of the project proposals to both institutions in the simplest terms possible. Please find those comments following:

Legislative Background

The AEO is well apprised of the current situation regarding public solar opportunities in the state of Arkansas. The passage of Act 464 of 2019, the Solar Access Act, allows public institutions to realize a portion of the long-standing solar Investment Tax Credit (twenty-six percent, currently) by entering into a SSA with a private developer, such as Entegrity. Tax benefits are realized due to the sale of credits to a third-party tax equity investor who owns the system for at least six years (and potentially up to the useful life of the array). Public entities have the opportunity to obtain numerous benefits through SSAs, including no upfront expense, a substantial reduction in electric consumption rate, and a lack of need for operations and maintenance contracts. Arkansas also currently has extremely favorable net-metering policies relative to the region, whereby solar customers may, among other things, site installations remotely, aggregate meters, and receive full retail credit for excess power exported back to a utility provider. It should be noted that these

ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY 5301 NORTHSHORE DRIVE/ NORTH LITTLE ROCK/ ARKANSAS 72118-5317 / TELEPHONE 501-682-0744 / FAX 501-682-0880 www.adeq.state.or.us policies have been the subject of intense debate since 2015 and are expected to change imminently.

Arkansas Public Solar Industry Overview

While the potential for solar deployment in Arkansas ranks among the top twenty states in the nation, the statewide industry remains in its infancy. Solar projects in the public sector have only recently become economically feasible, due to rapidly decreasing equipment costs (system costs have declined by roughly 300% in the past decade) and the aforementioned Act 464. In the past year, dozens of projects have been developed and/or executed as public entities seek to take advantage of the new opportunities now available. As a point of reference, prior to the Solar Access Act the 1.5 MW of solar power had been installed through the AEPC program. Currently, 6.6 additional MW of photovoltaics have been approved for installation through the program with an additional 30 MW being considered.

Proposed Solar Services Agreements

Maximizing current net-metering regulations, both proposed SSAs would be offsite arrays sized at 5.39 MW DC and 4.03 MW DC for UAF and UADA, respectively. Utility accounts for both entities were analyzed and a consumption rate was determined from available billing data. As proposed, the UAF project would reduce the consumption rate for the affected accounts by 32.68% while the UADA project would decrease the same rate by 27.15%

Market Comparisons

AEO was provided full cost breakdowns for both arrays as SSAs and financed options so as to compare the proposals to our program portfolio as a whole. The Guaranteed Maximum installed price of both projects on a cost per watt basis as proposed is $1.31. To date, our installed projects in the program have been roughly 41 % more expensive on this basis. Of course, costs have decreased in the past year, but the proposed arrays would still be more than fifty cents per watt below the program average of solar costs seen by AEO in 2019 and 2020.

The aforementioned consumption rate reductions proposed by Entegrity fall well below what AEO has seen in other SSAs, which have reduced rates for their clients between 17 and 20 percent.

AEPC Process

The SSA, if executed, would be delivered within the existing framework of the AEPC Program, an energy efficiency and capital improvements program currently guaranteeing over $400 million for public entities across the state of Arkansas. This is a procurement mechanism that other public entities in the state have availed themselves of to execute photovoltaic projects since the passage of the Solar Access Act. Benefits include AEO review of all phases of the project, the ability to bundle demand reduction measures within a single contract, and the provision of additional security to a public entity in the form of an energy savings guarantee. In an SSA, this functionally means that both production (in kWh) and savings are guaranteed per the terms of the contract. Contract Assumptions

This was an atypical rate development process given the recent rate increase granted to SWEPCO (thus adjusting the baseline). Representatives from UAF, UADA, Entegrity, and SWEPCO all gave feedback to the rate development process, and AEO thanks all parties for their collaborative approach to finding an acceptable number given the number of moving parts in this process. If any stakeholders desire our feedback on the proposed rate, we are happy to do so having provided consumption rate analysis for numerous public clients.

Regarding utility escalation, we are quite comfortable with an SSA proposing an annual rate increase of .5% after the rate increase calculated from SWEPCO's petition to the Public Service Commission. UAF's staff is likely aware that, based on Department of Energy research, electricity rates in the state of Arkansas have increased by a rate of just over 2.15% for the last quarter-century. The AEO typically recommends using these figures as a baseline for all our contracts with the median escalator for our SSAs being 2.5%. The Department of Energy's own rate calculator suggests an escalation rate of 2.5% for a solar project of this length.

The SSA escalation rate of 1% is likewise conservative and balanced to deliver both an attractive initial rate while protecting UAF and UADA in the longterm. SSA escalation rates will necessarily vary based on a client's stated need, array size, and investor interest, but we are quite comfortable with the proposed rate.

Equipment Summary

The proposed array components are entirely appropriate for projects of this size. The FirstSolar Series 6 modules are industry leaders in terms of output and have a 25-year production warranty with 17% peak efficiency ratings as would be expected. We have no issues with either the expected performance of the proposed inverters. Neither array sizing nor site location will be an issue for this project as ACC will not be seeking to service their entire demand through this project. Further, neither equipment maintenance nor replacement would be required of UAF or UADA for the duration of the SSA were the projects to be executed. If either party opted to purchase their respective array, AEO would suggest entering into an O&M contract if staff capacity is not available (typically less than half a cent per watt).

Evaluation ofRisks

Both UAF and UADA have rightly been wary about the prospect of entering into a multi-decade commitment wherein both entities will be obligated to pay for power produced by the arrays installed by these proposed projects. A number of questions have been raised regarding potential risks since the proposals were initially brought to the system board in November, which are addressed below. While we will avoid commenting on the SSA contract itself given the advanced state of negotiations with that document, we are thankful to all parties for endeavoring to address contract issues and fit the SSA within the AEPC contract structure. • Risk of SSA Rates Escalating Faster than Utility Rates - The SSA rate is significantly lower than current utility rates in both instances. While we have seen project proposals where this might potentially be a concern, it is exceedingly improbable in this instance. Were it somehow to happen, either UAF or VADA would have already recouped millions in savings. • Change in Initial Rate Proposal -As all are likely aware, Entegrity's proposed SSA rate has slightly increased since November. This is primarily due to federal tax incentives being reduced by 4% since 2019. Additionally, the global health emergency has led to a shifting financial landscape which has dramatically impacted tax equity markets. In light of this, we would consider the current rate proposals to still be quite competitive in the current environment. • Measurement and Verification Costs - AEO has structured the entirety of the AEPC program around shifting risk from the public to the private sector. As such, measurement and verification is a key factor to the process, and we strongly believe in both the production and savings guarantee offered through the SSA/EPC approach. However, we've also structured the program to be flexible. Should UAF and/or UADA be satisfied with savings after a year, they will be free to opt-out of the savings guarantee.

Summary

We have been impressed throughout this process with the extreme transparency with which Entegrity has conducted their affairs. These projects, were they to be executed, would generate savings of $8.5 million with no need for upfront capital and frankly are far and away the most cost-effective solar projects to be vetted by the AEO to this point. In many ways, we would consider well constructed SSAs to be a safer investment for our public clients than some of the hastily considered energy performance contracts our office has reviewed. All parties have worked diligently to overcome potential obstacles and deliver a final proposal that, in our opinion, would be a credit to the state. AEO is happy to fully support any efforts to proceed forward with large-scale renewable energy projects while reducing expenditures and would look forward to answering questions from any party.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) granted the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) the authority to establish and enforce a comprehensive framework to oversee the safety of public transportation throughout the United States. MAP-21 expanded the regulatory authority of FTA to oversee safety, providing an opportunity to assist transit agencies in moving towards a more holistic, performance-based approach to Safety Management Systems (SMS). This authority was continued through the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act).

In compliance with MAP-21 and the FAST Act, FTA promulgated a Public Transportation Safety Program on August 11, 2016 that adopted SMS as the foundation for developing and implementing a Safety Program. FTA is committed to developing, implementing, and consistently improving strategies and processes that seek to meet the goal of the National Public Transportation Safety Plan to ensure that transit achieves the highest practicable level of safety. SMS helps organizations improve upon their safety performance by supporting the institutionalization of beliefs, practices, and procedures for identifying, mitigating, and monitoring safety risks.

There are severa l components of the national safety program, including the National Public Transportation Safety Plan (NSP), that FTA published to provide guidance on managing safety risks and safety hazards. The Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan is one component, which was developed and implemented across the industry in 20 18. The subject of this document is the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) rule, 49 CFR Part 673, and guidance provided by FTA

Safety is a core business function of all public transportation providers and should be systematically applied to every aspect of service delivery. At Razorback Transit, all levels of management, administration and operations strive to maximize the safety of their clientele and themselves. To improve public transportation safety to the highest practicable level in the State of Arkansas and comply with FTA requirements, the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT) has developed this Agency Safety Plan (ASP) in collaboration with the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission (NWARPC), which is the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the region, and the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, dba Razorback Transit.

To ensure that the necessary processes are in place to accomplish both enhanced safety at the local level and the goals of the NSP, with the approval of the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas, the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville and its Razorback Transit program adopt this ASP and the tenets of SMS including a Safety Management Policy (SMP) and the processes for Safety Risk Management (SRM), Safety Assurance (SA), and Safety Promotion (SP), per 49 U.S.C 5329(d)(1)(A)1• While safety has always

1 Federal Register, Vol. 81, No. 24 I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I ';;1:~gency Safety Plan

been a primary function at Razorback Transit, this document lays out a process to fully implement an SMS over the next several years that complies with the PT ASP final rule.

2. TRANSIT AGENCY INFORMATION - 673.23(0)

Razorback Transit is one of the public transportation providers for the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas and is the largest transit provider in the City. The Razorback Transit main office is located at 155 Razorback Road, Fayetteville, AR 72701. The Operations and Maintenance Facility is located at 280 Eastern Ave., Fayetteville, AR 72701. The Razorback Transit transfer center is located at the University of Station, 361 N. Garland Avenue, Fayetteville, AR 72701.

Razorback Transit is a division of the University of Arkansas, Fayettevill e Transit and Parking Department. Razorback Transit currently operates a maximum of nine fixed routes which originate at the Union Station located on Garland Avenue just south of the Un iversity of Arkansas Student Union and east of Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. While Razorback Transit provides fare-free service to all Fayetteville residents, level of service changes in relation to the University of Arkansas' academic calendar. Accordingly, Razorback Transit currently runs the maximum nine fixed routes during fall/spring sessions (referred to as "peak" service) and drops to seven fixed routes during Summer sessions and school breaks such as winter break (referred to as "non-peak" service). No service is provided on Sundays, during University holidays, or any other days the campus is closed.

Razorback Transit provides fare-free fixed route bus and paratransit service to all University of Arkansas students, faculty, staff and the general public in its service area during all hours of operation. Razorback Transit buses have wheelchair lifts and are air-conditioned. Full transit service is provided Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on class days throughout the Fall and Spring semesters (mid­ August to mid- May) including final exam days. Razorback Transit has 25 fixed route buses and 6 demand response vehicles, operating up to 21 buses in peak service.

Non-peak bus service is provided from 6:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday through Friday during the Fall and Spring semesters (mid-August to mid-May). Saturday service is provided 7:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. during the same months. The last buses depart Union Station at 10:00 p.m. except the Red route which departs at 9:00 p.m. On home football game days Razorback Transit operates four routes as permitted with traffic restrictions. Reduced service is also provided from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday during the summer (mid-May to mid-August) and during the Christmas and New Year University holiday break.

Razorback Transit also provides curb-to-curb, demand-responsive paratransit service that mirrors our fixed route bus service (in terms of service times and areas). Paratransit Service is available in an area three quarters of a mile in any direction from any of the fixed routes. The service is a safety net and is only available to those persons who do not have the functional capability to access the fixed route bus system. While Razorback Paratransit's base mode of service is curb-to-curb, assistance beyond the curb may be available. Razorback Transit operates four Paratransit vans in peak service providing comparable service for disabled persons who are prevented from using the buses, and the same reduced service hours as our fixed route service during off peak times of the year. ;i ,,. :

Razorback Transit is committed to providing safe, reliable, and convenient fixed route and ADA complimentary paratransit service for our community. Through communications, initiative and integrity the women and men of this department are dedicated to providing quality services and support for an environment conducive to excellence and to developing employee commitment and satisfaction.

No additional transit service is provided by Razorback Transit on behalf of another transit agency or entity at the time of the development of this plan. Razorback Transit does coordinate service with the regional transit provider, Ozark Regional Transit (ORT) that also provides service in Fayetteville.

A. Authorities & Responsibilities - 673.23(d)

Consistent with 49 CFR 673.23(d), Razorback Transit is establishing the necessary authority, accountabilities, and responsibilities for the management of safety amongst the key individuals within the organization, as those individuals relate to the development and management of our SMS. In general, the following defines the authority and responsibilities associated with Razorback Transit.

The Accountable Executive has ultimate responsibility for carrying out the SMS of our public transportation agency, and control or direction over the human and capital resources needed to develop and maintain both the ASP (in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5329(d)), and the agency's TAM Plan, in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5326. The Accountable Executive has authority and responsibility to address substandard performance in the Razorback Transit SMS, per 49 CFR 673.23(d)(1).

Agency leadership and executive management are those members of our agency leadership or executive management, other than the Accountable Executive, Chief Safety Officer (CSO)/SMS Executive, who have authority or responsibility for day-to-day implementation and operation of our agency's SMS.

The CSO is an adequately trained individual who has the authority and responsibility as designated by the accountable executive for the day-to-day implementation and operation of the Razorback Transit SMS. As such, the CSO is able to report directly to our transit agency's Accountable Executive.

Key staff are staff, groups of staff, or committees to support the Accountable Executive, CSO, or SMS Executive in developing, implementing, and operating our agency's SMS.

Front line employees perform the daily tasks and activities where hazards can be readily identified so the identified hazards can be addressed before the hazards become adverse events. These employees are critical to SMS success through each employee's respective role in reporting safety hazards, which is where an effective SMS and a positive safety culture begins.

Further detail on this authority and these responsibilities are described at length in the individual Position Description files (e.g. Bus Operator Position Description) found in Table 8 (Appendix A, which shows the document name, file name, and date of adoption). In addition, over the next year, Razorback Transit will be reviewing and modifying, if necessary, our current job descriptions to ensure the job descriptions comply with 49 CFR Part 673. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT

3. SAFETY POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

A. Policy Statement- 673.23(0)

Razorback Transit recognizes that the management of safety is a core value of our operation. The management team at Razorback Transit will embrace the Safety Management System and is committed to developing, implementing, maintaining, and constantly improving processes to enhance the safety of our employees, customers, and the general public. All levels of management and frontline employees are committed to safety and understand that safety is the primary responsibility of all employees.

Razorback Transit is committed to:

• Communicating the purpose and benefits of the Safety Management System to all staff, managers, supervisors, and employees. This communication will specifically define the duties and responsibilities of each employee throughout the organization and all employees will receive appropriate information and SMS training. • Providing appropriate management involvement and the necessary resources to establish an effective reporting system that will encourage employees to communicate and report any unsafe work conditions, hazards, or at-risk behavior to the management team. • Identifying hazardous and unsafe work conditions and analyzing data from the employee reporting system. After thoroughly analyzing provided data, the transit operations division will develop processes and procedures to mitigate safety risk to an acceptable level. • Ensuring that no action will be taken against employees due to their disclosure of safety concerns through the reporting system, unless the disclosure indicates an illegal act, gross negligence, or deliberate or willfu l disregard of regulations or procedures. • Establ ishi ng Safety Performance Targets (SPT) that are realistic, measurable, and data driven. • Continually improving our safety performance through management processes that ensure appropriate safety management action is taken and is effective.

e fo ro m - 73 3{b

An effective SMS uses information from a variety of sources. Frontline employees are a significant source of safety data. These employees are typically the first to spot unsafe conditions that arise from unplanned conditions either on the vehicles, in the maintenance shop, or in the field during operations. For this reason, the Employee Safety Reporting Program (ESRP) is a major tenet of the PT ASP Rule. Under this rule, agencies must establish and implement a process that allows employees to report safety conditions directly to senior management; provides protections for employees who report safety conditions to senior management; and includes a description of employee behaviors that may result in disciplinary action. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

Razorback Transit has reporting procedures in place defined in the Employee Handbook (Table 8, Appendix A), which is applicable to a variety of situations including but not limited to: vehicle inspections, non-discrimination/sexual harassment, hazardous spills, vehicle accidents, etc. The Handbook lays out the appropriate report forms and procedures for the different situations. The Reporting Responsibilities section provides detailed information for who to contact and how to contact them depending on the subject matter. Over the next year, Razorback Transit will review and modify, if necessary, our Employee Handbook to develop it into a full ESRP to help ensure that the procedures comply with 49 CFR Part 673.

Razorback Transit has an Open-Door Policy that allows for both confidential and identified communication of complaint, question, or suggestion for improvement. This policy encourages the employee to first approach their respective immediate supervisor. If the matter cannot be resolved with the immediate supervisor, the employee has the option to speak to the Human Resources Officer or the Director. Razorback Transit employees are protected from retaliation for using the Open-Door Policy to report safety conditions in good faith and Razorback Transit maintains the confidentiality of the employee making the complaint, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

To bolster the information received from frontline employees, Razorback Transit will also review its current policy for how the agency receives information and safety related data from employees and customers. In general, the Razorback Transit ESRP will ensure that all employees are encouraged to report safety conditions directly to senior management or the employee's direct supervisor for elevation to senior management. The policy will also apply to any contract personnel.

To ensure that future reporting is encouraged, the policy will spell out what protections are afforded employees who report safety related conditions and will describe employee behaviors that are not covered by those protections. The policy will also elaborate on how safety conditions that are reported will be reported to relevant personnel, up to the entire agency, dependent on the nature of the safety condition.

Razorback Transit is committed to enhancing the safety of its clientele, personnel, and operations. Part of that commitment is developing an SMS and agencywide safety culture that reduces agency risk to the lowest level possible. The first step in developing a full SMS and agencywide safety culture is communicating the SMP throughout the agency.

The SMP and safety objectives are at the forefront of all communications. This communications strategy will include displaying visual aids such as safety-related posters, bulletins and other materials in prominent work locations for existing employees, and including the policy statement in the on-boarding material for all new employees and in the employee handbook. In addition, the policy statement will become part of the agency's regu lar safety meetings and other safety communications efforts. The policy will be signed by the Accountable Executive so that all employees know that the policy is supported by management. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

8. PTASP Development - 673. 11 (d)

This Razorback Transit PT ASP has been developed by ARDOT on behalf of the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville dba Razorback Transit and NWARPC, in accordance with al l requirements stated in 49 CFR Part 673 applicable to a small public transportation provider. ARDOT mailed a formal call for participation in a State sponsored PTASP development process to all Arkansas Section 5307 small bus transit agencies on December 21, 2018 and followed that call with a series of phone calls and additional correspondence. Razorback Transit provided a letter to ARDOT opting into participation on January 28, 2019 and has been an active participant in the development of this plan through sharing existing documentation and participating in communication and coordination throughout the development of this plan. The Razorback Transit documentation used in the development of this plan is presented in Appendix A

In support of tracking performance on our SA and SP processes, Razorback Transit conducts a yearly safety culture survey. The survey is intended to help Razorback Transit assess how well our agency communicates safety and safety performance information throughout our organization by gauging how safety is perceived and embraced by Razorback Transit's administrators, supervisors, staff and contractors. The survey is designed to help assess how well our agency is conveying information on hazards and safety risks relevant to employees' roles and responsibilities and informing employees of safety actions taken in response to reports submitted through our ESRP. Results from our most recent survey were analyzed and incorporated into the implementation strategies contained in this ASP.

After review of the Razorback Transit existing documentation, ARDOT personnel conducted an on-site interview with Razorback Transit to gain a better understanding of the agency and agency personnel. This understanding was necessary to ensure that the ASP was developed to fit Razorback Transit's size, operational characteristics, and capabilities.

The draft ASP was delivered to Razorback Transit in March 2020 for review and comment. Once review was completed and any adjustments made, the final ASP was delivered to Razorback Transit for review and adoption.

C. PTASP Annual Review - 673.11 (a)(SJ

Per 49 U.S.C. 5329(d){1)(O), this plan includes provisions for annual updates of the SMS. As part of Razorback Transit's ongoing commitment to fully implementing SMS and engaging our agency employees in developing a robust safety culture, Razorback Transit will review the ASP and all supporting documentation annually. The review will be conducted as a precursor to certifying to FTA that the ASP is fully compliant with 49 CFR Part 673 and accurately reflects our agency's current implementation status. Certification will be accomplished through the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville's annual Certifications and Assurances reporting to FTA.

The annual review will include the ASP and supporting documents (Standard Operating Procedures [SOP], Policies, Manuals, etc.) that are used to fully implement all the processes used to manage safety at

The implementation of SMS is an ongoing and iterative process, and, as such, this PTASP is a working document. Therefore, a clear record of changes and adjustments is kept in the PT ASP for the benefit of safety plan performance management and to comply with Federal statutes. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

D. PTASP Maintenance - 673.11 (a)(2J(c)

Razorback Transit will follow the annual review process outlined above and adjust this ASP as necessary to accurately reflect current implementation status. This plan will document the processes and activities related to SMS implementation as required under 49 CFR Part 673 Subpart C and will make necessary updates to this ASP as Razorback Transit continues to develop and refine our SMS implementation.

E. PTASP Documentation and Recordkeeping - 673.31

At all times, Razorback Transit will ma intain documents that set forth our ASP, including those documents related to the implementation of Razorback Transit's SMS and those documents related to the results from SMS processes and activities. Razorback Transit will also maintain documents that are included in whole, or by reference, that describe the programs, policies, and procedures that our agency uses to carry out our ASP and all iterations of those documents. These documents will be made available upon request to the FTA, other Federal entity, or ARDOT. Razorback Transit will maintain these documents for a minimum of three years after the documents are created. These additional supporting documents are cataloged in Appendix A and the list will be kept current as a part of the annual ASP review and update.

F. Safety Performance Measures - 673. 11 (a)(3)

The PT ASP Final Rule, 49 CFR Part 673.11 (a)(3), requires that all public transportation providers must develop an ASP to include SPTs based on the safety performance measures established under the NSP. The safety performance measures outlined in the NSP were developed to ensure that the measures can be applied to all modes of public transportation and are based on data currently being submitted to the NTD. The safety performance measures included in the NSP are fatalities, injuries, safety events, and system reliability (State of Good Repair as developed and tracked in the TAM Plan).

There are seven (7) SPTs that must be included in each ASP that are based on the four (4) performance measures in the NSP. These SPTs are presented in terms of total numbers reported and rate per Vehicle Revenue Mile (VRM). Each of the seven (7) are required to be reported by mode as presented in Table 4:

Table 4: NSP Safety Performance Measures Safe Performance, Measure SPT SPT , . • Fatalities Total Number Reported Rate Per Total VRM Injuries Total Number Reported Rate Per Total VRM Safety Events Total Number Reported Rate Per Total VRM System Reliability Mean distance between major mechanical failure

Table 5 presents baseline numbers for each of the performance measures. Razorback Transit collected the past five (5) years of reported data to develop the rolling averages listed in the table.

While safety has always been a major component of the Razorback Transit operation, the adoption of this ASP will result in changes across all aspects of the organization. The SPTs set in Table 6 and Table 7 reflect an acknowledgement that SMS implementation will produce new information that will be needed to accurately set meaningful SPTs. Razorback Transit will set our targets at the current NTD reported five­ year average as we begin the process of fully implementing our SMS and developing our targeted safety improvements. Razorback Transit will seek to ensure that we do no worse than our baseline performance over the last five years.

As part of the annual review of the ASP, Razorback Transit will reevaluate our SPTs and determine whether the SPTs need to be refined. As more data is collected as part of the SRM process discussed later in this plan, Razorback Transit may begin developing safety performance indicators to help inform management on safety related investments.

G. Safety Performance Target Coordination - 673.15(a)(b)

Razorback Transit will make our SPTs available to ARDOT and NWARPC to aid in those agencies' respective regional and long-range planning processes. To the maximum extent practicable, Razorback Transit will coordinate with ARDOT and the MPO in the selection of State and MPO SPTs as documented in the lnteragency Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

Each year during the FT A Certifications and Assurances reporting process, Razorback Transit will transmit any updates to our SPTs to both the NWARPC and ARDOT (unless those agencies specify another time in writing). RAZORBACK TRANSIT ~ ;. itazorb,a~~fr~ns,i( ,' ;: "I ~ • / I , f'! , • I

4. SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS - 673 SUBPART C

As previously noted, FTA has adopted SMS as the basis for improving safety across the public transportation industry. In compliance with the NSP, National Public Transportation Safety Plan, and 49 CFR Part 673, Razorback Transit is adopting SMS as the basis for directing and managing safety and risk at our agency. Razorback Transit has always viewed safety as a core business function. All levels of management and employees are accountable for appropriately identifying and effectively managing risk in all activities and operations in order to deliver improvements in safety and reduce risk to the lowest practical level during service delivery.

SMS is comprised of four basic components: SMP, SRM, SA, and SP. The SMP and SP are the enablers that provide structure and supporting activities that make SRM and SA possible and sustainable. The SRM and SA are the processes and activities for effectively managing safety as presented in Figure 2.

Figure 2: Safety Management Systems

Safety Promotion

Safety Management I o'icy (Leadership Commitment & Accountability)

(Cornrnunication & Trainil"9l I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

Implementing SMS at Razorback Transit will be a major undertaking over the next several years. This ASP is the first step to putting in place a systematic approach to managing our agency's risk. Razorback Transit has already taken several steps to implement SMS, such as developing this initial ASP and designating a Chief Safety Officer. During the first year of implementation, Razorback Transit will identify SMS roles and responsibilities and key stakeholder groups, identify key staff to support implementation, and ensure the identified staff receive SMS training. Razorback Transit will also develop a plan for implementing SMS, inform stakeholders about the ASP, and discuss our progress toward implementation with the Board of Trustees and our agency's planning partners.

A. Safety Risk Management - 673.25

By adopting this ASP, Razorback Transit is establishing the SRM process presented in Figure 3 for identifying hazards and analyzing, assessing and mitigating safety risk in compliance with the requirements of 49 CFR 673.25. The SRM processes described in this section are designed to implement the Razorback Transit SMS.

Figure 3: Safety Risk Management Process

The implementation of the SRM component of the SMS will be carried out over the course of the next year. The SRM components will be implemented through a. program of improvement during which the SRM processes will be implemented, reviewed, evaluated, and revised, as necessary, to help ensure the SRM processes are achieving the intended safety objectives as the processes are fully incorporated into Razorback Transit's SOPs.

The SRM is focused on implementing and improving actionable strategies that Razorback Transit has undertaken to identify, assess and mitigate risk. The creation of a Safety Management Log provides a resource for documenting the SRM process, tracking the identified risks, and documenting the effectiveness of mitigation strategies in meeting defined safety objectives and performance measures. The draft Safety Management Log is presented in Figure 4. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I Agency Safety Plan. ,

Figure 4: Draft Safety Management Log

As the SRM process progresses through the steps of identifying what may be wrong, what could happen as a result, and what steps Razorback Transit is taking to resolve the risk and mitigate the hazard, the CSO completes and publishes the various components of the Safety Management Log. These components include the use of safety hazard identification, safety risk assessment, and safety risk mitigation, as described in the following sections.

tv Haza d d t·f1c«fon - 67 .25(b)

Razorback Transit currently uses the University of Arkansas' Behavioral Intervention and Threat Assessment Team (BIT-TAT), found in the Razorback Transit Employee Handbook, to promote a safe environment for students and faculty. BIT-TAT seeks to use a collaborative, proactive, and prevention-minded approach to identifying and preventing problematic behavior towards campus safety. The protocol uses an early identification and response strategy to manage emerging situations. BIT-TAT personnel include members from Emergency Management, University Police, Human Resources, Division of Academic Affairs, Counseling and Psychological Services, and Office of the General Counsel.

Although the current procedures have been helpful in seeking to accomplish our safety objectives, to ensure compliance with 49 CFR Part 673, Razorback Transit is working to implement the following expanded SRM process.

The Razorback Transit SRM process is a forward-looking effort to identify safety hazards that could potentially result in negative safety outcomes. In the SRM process, a hazard is any real or potential condition that can cause injury, illness, or death; damage to or loss of the facilities, equipment, rolling stock, or infra-structure of a public transportation system; or damage to the environment. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I Ag~n~Y ~afety.Plan I •

Hazard identification focuses on out-of-the-norm conditions that need special attention or immediate action, new procedures, or training to resolve a condition that is unacceptable and return conditions to an acceptable level. Razorback Transit uses and continues to develop a variety of mechanisms for identifying and documenting hazards, namely:

• Through training and reporting procedures Razorback Transit equips personnel to identify hazards and understand that each employee has a responsibility to immediately report any safety hazards identified to the employee's supervisors. Continued training helps employees to develop and improve the skills needed to identify hazards. • Employee hazard training coupled with the ESRP helps ensure that Razorback Transit has full use of information from frontline employees for hazard identification. • Upon receiving a hazard report, supervisors communicate the identified hazard to the CSO for entry into safety management log for risk assessment, classification, and possible mitigation. • In carrying out the risk assessment, the CSO uses standard reporting forms (e.g. Pre-and Post-trip Inspection Forms to mitigate mechanical based safety hazards that are identified) and other reports completed on a routine basis by administrative, operations and maintenance. The Razorback Transit Employee Handbook contains procedures for flagging and reporting hazards as a part of day-to-day operations. • Supervisors are responsible for performing and documenting regular safety assessments, which include reporting and recommending methods to reduce identified hazards. • Razorback Transit uses incident reports and records to determine specific areas of training that need to be covered with employees to ensure safety hazard identification is continually improved, and thus ensure that hazards are identified before an event recurrence. • Incident reports are also analyzed by the risk management team to identify any recurring patterns or themes that would help to identify underlying hazards and root causes of the event that can be mitigated to prevent recurrence. • Razorback Transit will assess whether additional reporting mechanisms are necessary in order to ensure that employees will feel comfortable reporting hazardous conditions, • To increase the safety knowledge of our agency, the CSO, risk management personnel and subject matter experts are also encouraged to participate in available professional development activities and peer-to-peer exchanges as a source of expertise and information on lessons learned and best practices in hazard identification. • Other sources for hazard identification include: o ESRP o Inspections of personnel job performance, vehicles, facilities and other data o Investigations of safety events I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

o Safety trend analysis on data currently collected o Training and evaluation records o Internal safety audits o External sources of hazard information could include: • FTA and other federal or state authorities • Reports from the pub Iic • Safety bulletins from manufacturers or industry associations

In addition to identifying the hazard, the hazard identification process also classifies the hazard by type (organizational, technical or environmental) to assist the CSO in identifying the optimal combination of departmental leadership and subject matter expertise to select in assembling the safety risk assessment team.

The various hazard types can also be categorized by subcategory for each type. For example, organizational hazards can be subcategorized into resourcing, procedural, training or supervisory hazards. Each of the subcategories implies different types of mitigation strategies and potentially affect overall agency resources through varying costs for implementation. Technical hazards can be subcategorized into operational, maintenance, design and equipment. Additionally, environmental hazards can be subcategorized into weather and natural, which is always a factor for every operation.

67 5

As part of the new SRM process, Razorback Transit has developed methods to assess the likelihood and severity of the consequences of identified hazards, and prioritizes the hazards based on the safety risk. The process continues the use of the Safety Management Log described in the previous section to address the next two components.

To accurately assess a risk, Razorback Transit may need to perform an investigation. Razorback Transit currently investigates accidents or crashes but will need to develop a full investigation procedure to inform the SRM process. The investigation procedure will start with the Assessment Form and framework found in the Vehicle Accident Procedure and will be developed to cover all risk assessment. Once fully developed, the document will become the Investigation SOP. The SOP will include accident investigation procedures as well as risk investigatioh procedures. These procedures will be used to investigate risks identified from multiple sources including the ESRP.

Safety risk is based on an assessment of the likelihood of a potential consequence and the potential severity of the consequences in terms of resulting harm or damage. The risk assessment also considers any previous mitigation efforts and the effectiveness of those efforts. The results of the assessment are used to populate the third and fourth components of the Safety Management log as presented in Figure 5.

~ 21 I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I .... Agency Safety Pia~ r. ,.

Figure 5: Safety Risk Assessment Steps in Populating the Safety Management Log

:_!l!ll - ,.,., ::",,,( ~,,,11,:,_?.-::..,"- . . . Conseque.~J~i

The risk assessment is conducted by the CSO and their safety team supplemented by subject matter experts from the respective department or section to which the risk applies. The process employs a safety risk matrix, similar to the one presented in Figure 6, that al lows the safety team to visualize the assessed likelihood and severity, and to help decision -makers understand when actions are necessary to reduce or mitigate safety risk.

Figure 6: Safety Risk Assessment Matrix

RISK ASSESSMENT MATRIX SEVERITY Critical Urgent Marginal Negligible LIKELIHOOD (1) (2) (3) (4)

Frequent (A) Medium

Probably (B) Medium Medium

Occasional (C) Medium Medium Low

Remote (D) Medium Medium Low Low

Improbable (E) Medium Low Low Low

Although the current version of the matrix relies heavily on the examples and samples that are listed on the PT ASP Technical Assistance Center website, lessons learned from the implementation process during the coming years will be used to customize the matrix that Razorback Transit will use to address our unique operating realities and leadership guidance. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

The Risk Assessment Matrix is an important tool. If a risk is assessed and falls within one of the red zones, the risk is determined to be unacceptable under existing circumstances. This determination means that management must take action to mitigate the situation. This is the point in the process when SRMs are developed. If the risk is assessed and falls within one of the yellow zones, the risk is determined to be acceptable, but monitoring is necessary. If the risk falls within one of the green zones, the risk is acceptable under the existing circumstances.

Once a hazard's likelihood and severity have been assessed, the CSO enters the hazard assessment into the Safety Management Log that is used to document the individual hazard and the type of risk it represents. This information is used to move to the next step, which is hazard mitigation.

a et Rt k 1i 1g ti n - 673 25(d

Upon completion of the risk assessment, the CSO and the safety committee continue populating the Safety Management Log by identifying mitigations or strategies necessary to reduce the likelihood and/or severity of the consequences. The goal of this step is to avoid or eliminate the hazard or, when elimination is not likely or feasible, to reduce the assessed risk rating to an acceptable level (Figure 7). However, mitigations do not typically eliminate the risk entirely.

Figure 7: Safety Management Log Mitigation Component

- -- ~.. ·-•"' J :·· •,.., • ....• ~l

To accomplish this objective, the CSO, through the risk management team, works with subject matter experts from the respective department or section to which the risk applies. The risk management team then conducts a discussion exercise to elicit feedback from staff and supervisors with the highest level of expertise in the components of the hazard.

Documented risk resolution and hazard mitigation activities from previous Safety Management Log entries and the resolution's documented level of success at achieving the desired safety objectives may also be reviewed and considered in the process. If the hazard is external (e.g., roadway construction by an outside agency) information and input from external actors or experts may also be sought to take advantage of al l reasonably available resources and avoid any unintended consequences. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT □

Once a mitigation strategy is selected and adopted, the strategy is assigned to an appropriate staff member or team for implementation. The assigned personnel and the personnel's specific responsibilities are entered into the Safety Management Log. Among the responsibilities of the mitigation team leader is the documentation of the mitigation effort, including whether the mitigation was carried out as designed and whether the intended safety objectives were achieved. This information is recorded in the appendix to the Safety Management Log for use in subsequent SA activities and to monitor the effectiveness of the SRM program.

8. Safety Assurance - 673.27 (a)

Safety Assurance means processes within the Razorback Transit SMS that function to a) ensure the implementation and effectiveness of safety risk mitigation, and b) confirm that Razorback Transit meets or exceeds our safety objectives through t he collection, measurement, analysis and assessment of information.

SA helps to ensure early identification of potential safety issues. SA also ensures that safeguards are in place and are effective in meeting Razorback Transit's critica l safety objectives and contribute towards SPTs.

af p on'to m td u nq 2 b)

As the first step in the Razorback Transit safety assurance program, Razorback Transit collects and monitors data on safety performance indicators through a variety of mechanisms described in the following sections. Safety performance indicators can provide early warning signs about safety risks. Razorback Transit currently relies primarily on lagging indicators representing negative safety outcomes that should be avoided or mitigated in the future. However, initiatives are underway to adopt a more robust set of lead ing indicators that monitor conditions that are likely to contribute to negative outcomes in the future. In addition to the day-to-day monitoring and investigation procedures detailed below, Razorback Transit will review and document the safety performance monitoring and measuring processes as part of the annual update of this ASP.

Razorback Transit monitors our system for personnel compliance with operations and maintenance procedures and also monitors these procedures for sufficiency in meeting safety objectives. A list of documents describing the safety related operations and maintenance procedures cited in this ASP is provided in Appendix A of this document.

Supervisors monitor employee compliance with Razorback Transit SOPs through direct observation and review of information from internal reporting systems such as the Razorback Transit Employee Handbook's reporting procedure from both employees and customers. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT

Razorback Transit addresses non-compliance with standard procedures for operations and maintenance activities through a variety of actions, including revision to training materials and delivery of employee and supervisor training if the non-compliance is systemic. If the non-compliance is situational, then activities may include supplemental individualized training, coaching, and heightened management oversight, among other remedies.

Sometimes personnel are fully complying with the procedures, but the operations and maintenance procedures are inadequate and pose the risk of negative safety outcomes. In this case, the cognizant person submits the deficiency or description of the inadequate procedures to the SRM process. Through the SRM process, the SRM team will then evaluate and analyze the potential organizational hazard and assign the identified hazard for mitigation and resolution, as appropriate. The SRM team will also conduct periodic self-evaluation and mitigation of any identified deficiencies in the SRM process itself.

Section leaders are required to monitor investigation reports of safety events and SRM resolution reports to monitor the department's operations to identify any safety risk mitigations that may be ineffective, inappropriate, or not implemented as intended. If it is determined that the safety risk mitigation did not bring the risk to an acceptable level or otherwise failed to meet safety objectives, then the supervisor resubmits the safety risk/hazard to the SRM process. The CSO will work with the supervisor and subject matter experts to reanalyze the hazard and consequences and identify additional mitigation or alternative approaches to implementing the mitigation.

tv lt c t1 ton 7

Razorback Transit currently conducts investigations of safety events. From an SA perspective, the objective of the investigation is to identify causal factors of the event and to identify actionable strategies that Razorback Transit can employ to address any identifiable organizational, technical or environmental hazard at the root cause of the safety event.

Safety Event Investigations that seek to identify and document the root cause of an accident or other safety event are a critical component of the SA process because they are a primary resource for the collection, measurement, analysis and assessment of information. Razorback Transit gathers a variety of information for identifying and documenting root causes of accidents and incidents, including but not limited to:

1. Obtain from the Operator the following information: a. The location of the incident and what direction they were traveling (inbound or outbound); if in station, indicate the situation. b. The bus number and the route that they are on. c. If there are injuries, describe how serious they appear (don't be too graphic, just generalize). RAZORBACK TRANSIT Razorback Transit I ':A • ~~ ' • - I

d. Provide information about any other vehicles or pedestrians involved and their descriptions. 2. Remind the operator of the safety procedures: a. Turn on 4-way flashers. Place traffic warning devices (orange triangles). b. Recheck anyone with injuries, do not move the seriously injured. c. Render comfort and aid to anyone injured, as may be appropriate. d. Evacuate the bus, if necessary. e. Keep the two-way radio on and monitored. f. Hand out courtesy cards to the passengers and to any witnesses. g. Move the vehicle to the side of the road unless it is inoperable. 3. Notify the following: a. Call the Police. Call EMP (emergency medical personnel) 911 b. Notify/call the CSO and Supervisors over Mechanic, and immediate supervisor on duty at the time. 4. The supervisor will: a. Determine whether the Director or Operations Supervisor needs to be contacted but will give them a report when the supervisor finishes the initial assessment. b. Let the Operator know that Police and supervision have been contacted and help and is on the way. c. Assign a Standby Operator to pre-trip a bus in case a standby must drive the next round for the operator on that route. When needed, the Standby Operator may take a bus out to continue a route. d. Let the Operator know that a Standby Operator and bus have been assigned to continue the route or that support personnel are bringing another bus out to them. e. Refer the operator for required drug and alcohol testing in compliance with 49 CFR § 655.44 Post-accident testing, if the safety event meets the definition of accident in 49 CFR § 655.4. f. Record all accident information on the Daily Dispatch log, any missed trips, downtime, or bus change outs. 5. Dispatcher on duty will give the Operator an incident report to complete before the Operator leaves that day. Dispatcher will put the Operator's report in the CSO's box. 6. The CSO, working with subject matter experts, evaluates the incident report and other available information to determine the root cause of the accident/event. Follow up with driver or other cognizant parties may be necessary to elicit additional information. 7. The CSO identifies any hazards noted in the incident report and refers those hazards to the SRM process.

ot rn-.1 S. f_ t'l...R

As a primary part of the internal safety reporting program, our agency monitors information reported through the ESRP. When a report originating through the complaint process documents a safety hazard, the supervisor submits the hazards identified through the internal reporting process, including previous RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

mitigation in place at the time of the safety event. The supervisor submits the hazard report to the SRM process to be analyzed, evaluated and, if appropriate, assig ned for mitigation/resolution.

Because leading indicators can be more useful for safety performance monitoring and measurement than lagging indicators, Razorback Transit is undertaking efforts to implement processes to identify and monitor more leading indicators or conditions that have the potential to become or contribute to negative safety outcomes. This may include trend analysis of environmental conditions through monitoring National Weather Service data; monitoring trends toward or away from meeting the identified SPTs; or other indicators as appropriate.

C. Safety Promotion - 673.29

Management support is essential to developing and implementing SMS. SP includes all aspects of how, why, when and to whom management communicates safety related topics. SP also includes when and how training is provided. The following sections outline both the safety competencies and training that Razorback Transit will implement and how safety related information will be communicated.

Sa e nc es nd Tr inin l:173.29(.3)

Razorback Transit provides comprehensive training to all employees regarding each employee's job duties and general responsibilities. This training includes safety responsibilities related to the employee's position. In addition, regular driver safety meetings are held to ensure that safety related information is relayed to the key members of our agency's safety processes.

As part of SMS implementation, Razorback Transit will be conducting the following activities:

• Conduct a thorough review of all current general staff categories (administrative, driver, supervisor, mechanic, maintenance, etc.) and the respective staff safety related responsibilities. • Assess the t raining requirements spelled out in 49 CFR Part 672 and the various courses required for different positions. (Razorback Transit is not subject to the requirements under 40 CFR Part 672 but will review the training requirements to understand what training is being required of other larger agencies in the event these trainings might be useful). • Assess the training material available on the FTA PT ASP Technical Assistance Center website. • Review other tra ining material available from industry sources such as the Community Transportation Association of America and the American Public Transportation Association websites. • Develop a set of competencies and trainings required to meet the safety related activities for each general staff category. • Develop expectations for ongoing safety training and safety meeting attendance. I RAZORBACK TRANSIT I

• Develop a training matrix to track progress on individuals and groups within the organization. • Adjust job notices associated with general staff categories to ensure that new personnel understand the safety related competencies and training needs and the safety related responsibilities of the job. • Include refresher training in all trainings and apply it to agency personnel and contractors.

f tl, Com, um tio 673 9

Razorback Transit regularly communicates safety and safety performance information throughout our agency's organization that, at a minimum, conveys information on hazards and safety risks relevant to employees' roles and responsibilities and informs employees of safety actions taken in response to reports submitted through the ESRP (noted in Section 3.A.I) or other means.

In addition to general campus policies relating to the dissemination of time-sensitive safety-related information, such as emergency alerts and safety warnings, Razorback Transit periodically reports safety related information to the Risk Management Office and the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Administration of the University of Arkansas. As appropriate, safety information may be furnished to the Chancellor, the campus community, and the Board of Trustees. In addition, Razorback Transit holds regularly scheduled meetings with drivers to ensure that any safety related information is passed along that would affect the execution of the drivers' duties. Razorback Transit also posts safety related and other pertinent information in a common room for all employees.

Razorback Transit will begin systematically collecting, cataloging, and, where appropriate, analyzing and reporting safety and performance information to all Razorback Transit staff. To determine what information should be reported, how the information should be reported and to whom, Razorback Transit will answer the following questions:

• What information does this individual need to do their job? • How can we ensure the individual understands what is communicated? • How can we ensure the individual understands what action must be taken as a result of the information? • How can we ensure the information is accurate and kept up-to-date? • Are there any privacy or security concerns to consider when sharing information? If so, what should we do to address these concerns?

In addition, Razorback Transit will review our current communications strategies and determine whether others are needed. As part of this effort, Razorback Transit has conducted, and will continue to conduct, a Safety Culture Survey to understand how safety is perceived in the workplace and what areas Razorback Transit should be addressing to fully implement a safety culture at our agency.

This comprehensive plan will set the agenda for the next five years as we build upon and celebrate 50 years as providers of high quality education and workforce training for a diverse student body.

Mindful of our past and what we do best, the education of our students grounds our mission. The competitive and ever-changing landscape of higher education makes it essential that, in addition to identifying strategic priorities, we maintain a flexible approach that allows us to take advantage of opportunities that arise during the execution of the plan.

During the 2019-20 academic year, a Strategic Plan Committee consisting of students, faculty, staff, and administrators convened to review data and recommend the strategic direction for the Five-Year Strategic Plan and review the mission statement of the college. All departments and Board of Visitors were provided a SWOT analysis template for completion. In addition, all employees, community members, students, alumni, board members, and parents were surveyed. The Strategic Planning Committee met, reviewed the SWOTs and stakeholder survey results, and developed four strategic priorities with implementation strategies.

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Dear Trustees:

Dr. Margaret A. Ellibee, Chancellor of the University of Arkansas - Pulaski Technical College, has requested approval for its daycare to participate in a USDA food program.

Since 2009, UA-PTC has participated in the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) "Child and Adult Care Food Program" (CACFP). UA-PTC's daycare center "Little Learners," which is operated in conjunction with the Early Childhood Program, participates in this federal program to help offset the expense of: I) providing a daily breakfast and afternoon snack to enrolled children; and 2) the salary of the Little Learners food preparation employee.

The mission of the CACFP program is to provide funding for healthy meals and snacks to children receiving day care. Eligible children at UA-PTC's Little Learners are 5 years of age and under. CACFP plays a critical role in supporting the wellness, health, and development of children through the provision and preparation of nutritious food. The projected CACFP reimbursement for Little Learners this fiscal year is $14,119.00. Little Learners' current enrollment is a total of 42 infants and children. Over the last three academic years, the average enrollment has been 32. Little Learners also has a "three-star" rating with the Arkansas Department of Human Services (OHS). This is the highest rating a state daycare facility can achieve.

In Arkansas, CACFP is administered by OHS. The on line application requires that the College unde1take the following procedural steps: 1) seek the review and approval by the Board of Trustees to participate in the CACFP program; and 2) have the Chairman of the Board of Trustees sign the attached statement upon the Board vote. Board consideration at its May meeting each year permits the College to submit its annual CACFP application to OHS by June 1.

Chancellor Ellibee recommends your review and approval for UA-PTC's participation in the 2020-21 CACFP program. I concur with Dr. Ellibee's recommendations and have attached a proposed resolution for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Donald R. Bobbitt President Charles E. Scharlau Presidential Leadership Chair

Dear Trustees:

The Chief Fiscal Officer of the State is authorized by A.C.A. §6-63-304 to establish a special appropriation line item for an institution of higher education to be used in the acquisition of promotional items by the institution. Before the line item authorizing expenditures for promotional items can be established, the Board of Trustees of the institution must approve the request and establish an amount to be transferred for each institution. The approval by the Board of Trustees is then forwarded to the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State for processing. The amount of the spending authorization for promotional items is transferred from the appropriation line item for operating expenses to the appropriation line item for promotional items for each institution.

Attached for your consideration is a resolution to request that the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State establish, for the purchase of promotional items, an appropriation line item for each of the campuses of the University of Arkansas. I have reviewed the requests and concur in the amounts listed for each campus.

Sincerely,

Office of tbt l'midmt May 8, 2020

TO MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES:

Dear Trustees:

In keeping with our efforts to update Board of Trustees policies to reflect current law and practice, enclosed are proposed new and revised Board Policies related to leave for employees. Historically, leave issues were addressed in Board Policy 420. l for academic and non­ classified employees and 420.2 for classified employees. Last year, we revised and updated the language regarding sick leave when we created Board Policy 420.3 to address sick leave for all employees regardless of classification. In a continuation of that effort, attached are new Board Policies that separate other leave issues from the original Board Policies 420.1 and 420.2, including military leave (420.4), court and jury leave (420.5), leave without pay (420.6), and education leave (420.7). These policies would apply to all employees moving forward. Also included are revised versions of 420.1 and 420.2 that only address annual leave (vacation) for non-classified employees and classified employees, respectively, moving forward.

Importantly, these policy revisions do not make any fundamental changes to the monthly leave accrued in place in the existing versions of 420.1 and 420.2. The revisions are meant to ensure the policies are aligned with current law and practice. Additionally, purpose statements and section headings were added to each policy to make them easier to read and follow for employees. The policy drafts that follow are red lined to show edits from current policy. The substantive changes are summarized as follows:

Board Policy 420.1 Annual Leave for Academic and Other Non-Classified Employees Changes to the annual leave policy include clarification that the leave is accrued at the end of each month; that annual leave is not accrued while an employee is utilizing catastrophic leave; and that annual leave cannot be taken before it is accrued.

Board Policy 420.2 Annual Leave for Classified Employees The only change to annual leave for classified employees is additional language clarifying that leave is accrued at the end of each month.

Board Policy 420.4 Military Leave Similar language on military leave was previously included in Boru·d Policies 420.1 and 420.2. The new policy revises that language to ensure the leave accrual and use related to military service align with state and federal law. 2404 l\onh Univmity r\vc11uc / Licrk Rnck, /\ rkans.is 72207-3608 / 501-6,% -250:i

Board of Trustees Page2 May 8, 2020

Board Policy 420.5 Court and Jury Leave Similar language related to jury duty and employee court testimony was previously included in Board Policies 420.1 and 420.2. The new Board Policy includes the previous language on jury duty with minor edits. The policy expands on leave issues related to employees serving as witnesses and expert witnesses to align the policy with best practices and to ensure compliance with other Board and university policies.

Board Policy 420.6 Leave Without Pay The previous Board Policy 420.1 had limited language regarding the granting of leave without pay. The new policy forms its basis from more extensive L WOP language in the previous version of Board Policy 420.2. The edits to that language include clarification that approval of the president is not required for L WOP requests under FMLA and ADA. Other edits are to ensure provisions of the policy align with other related board and system policies.

Board Policy 420. 7 Education Leave This new policy on education leave comes from language previously in Board Policy 420.2 regarding educational development leave for employees that is included in Arkansas law. A second section on leave for children's educational activities was not previously in Board Policy but is leave that is already granted to employees under state law.

I recommend approval. A resolution for your consideration follows:

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS THAT the following new and revised Board Policies set out below are hereby adopted and approved as presented on May 21, 2020: BP 420.1, Annual Leave for Academic and Other Non­ Gassified Employees; BP 420.2, Annual Leave for Classified Employees,· BP 420.4, Military Leave; BP 420.5, Courl and Jury Leave; BP 420.6, Leave Without Pay; and BP 420.7, Education Leave.

TO MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES:

Dear Trustees:

As part of the continuing issues with regard to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our employees have experienced a change in percent time employed, either voluntarily or involuntarily, due to this pandemic. Board Policy 440.1, Tuition Waiver for Employees, is normally only available for full time employees. I recommend that we give the institutions the ability to make an exception to the BP 440.1 "full time active employees" requirement to enable these affected employees to take advantage of this benefit to receive a tuition discount for the summer and fall terms of 2020. A proposed resolution for your consideration is as follows:

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS THAT the Board authorizes the Chancellors of the various campuses to waive the full-time employment requirement of Board Policy 440.1, Tuition Waiver for Employees, for those employees seeking tuition discounts for summer and fall 2020 te1ms who have had their percent time employed reduced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sincerely,

Donald R. Bobbitt President Charles E. Scharlau Presidential Leadership Chair
