Fuel usage has increased over the past few months for Wireless Communications.  We are reflecting additional deployments to the tower sites and customer locations for repair and servicing.  Over the past 2 years we were utilizing a budget of $2000 per year in fuel, using approximately $170+/- a month in fuel between the customer service field truck and the tower technician vehicle.  Trending this past year our usage is now reflecting $300-400 per month, with the increase reflecting more so on the tower technicians vehicle.  We did have an new tower site come on line late last summer, which has added another tower into our route for service as well as seeing an increase in visits to some of our older sites for more age related time and work. I have also contacted the budget office to make an adjustment to our requested change for the upcoming FY to ensure we are funded properly.  In attempts to conserve fuel we do not leave our vehicles running idle, we do try to make all tower trips in line with a trip to another tower scheduled.
