Transportation - Fuel: Current Cost per Gallon Contract rate or market rate? Market rate – Currently averaging approximately 3.599 per gallon Projected Cost per Gallon and Basis for Projection Contract rate or market rate? Possibly contract rate at River Valley Transit (RVT) fueling station for at least some of agency vehicles Terms of contract: Unknown at this time – working with RVT on possibilities Other Would like to explore Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicle purchase opportunities due to recent local CNG fueling station opening in Williamsport in 2012 12

Transportation - Shared Ride Fares: Date of Last Fare Increase: May 1, 2011 Current - $16.60 per one-way trip throughout the bi-county area; between $37 and $61 to Geisinger Medical Center (GMC), Danville, PA Average fare : $17.55 (Taken from last sample week) Sponsorship arrangements – STEP, Area Agency on Aging and North Central Sight Services Planned Changes Date of planned increase – Unknown at this time Estimated average fare – Unknown at this time Sponsorship arrangements – additional MATP funding cuts? Describe Fare Policy 203 Shared-Ride is $2.50 customer co-pay per one-way trip STEP, Area Agency on Aging sponsors customers over the age of 60 for certain trip types (67% of the 15% co-pay (65 and over) or 95% for 60-64 years of age) equates to an $.85 co- pay PwD/ADA customers are required to pay $4.00 for each on way trip MA customers are currently provided transportation at no charge. Effective April 1, 2012, MATP will reimburse STEP $2.00 less per trip with the assumption that customers will pay a $2.00 co-pay. If co-pay is not paid transportation is supposedly still required to be provided. GMC trips range from a $5.55 to $18.50 co-pay depending upon sponsorship and number of customers riding on that day 13

Transportation - Other Major Factors Producing Cost Increases Beyond Inflation: FactorsCurrent Amount Projected Future Amount Explanation Employee Recruitment and Retention Lost 7 Drivers and 1 Fleet Manager in 2011 = more cost for advertising, training, and overtime for Driver shortage ? Recruitment and retention have been extremely difficult for many reasons. Lately, the highly competitive nature of the Marsellus Shale gas industry has taken many Drivers away from STEP. Fuel Price Approximately 3.599 per gallon ? Indicators point to possible increases beyond inflation. Healthcare Costs 30% increased cost to the agency each of the last three years 15% increase per year Huge increase in the cost to the agency over the last three years and the expectation for continued higher costs 14
15
Transportation - Cost Savings Initiatives: Initiative Current Cost Planned Action and Implementation Date Projected Savings Reduction in Service Level ? January 1, 2012 – Reduced service from 24/7/365 to Monday thru Friday, 6:00am to 6:00pm not including STEP observed holidays According to the consultant, a possible savings of over $75,000 per year Implementation of higher technology $175,000?Waiting for success of pilots? Daily monitoring of Driver hours worked ? On going – to best of ability, zero out hours at end of the week to minimize overtime FY 2011-2012 - along with reduction in service level and Driver attrition, a projected saving of over $200,000. 15

Several Driver and 1 Fleet Manager positions FY 2011-2012 - along with reduction in service level and Driver attrition, a projected saving of over $200,000. Bulk Fueling? Working with River Valley Transit to purchase gas there ? Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Vehicles ? Would like to explore options to purchase CNG vehicles ? Less on-call coverage $10,400 per year New service level decreased need for around the clock on-call coverage $7,800 per year Others?
