PASS -AROUND REVIEW
PASS -AROUND TITLE: Unused Equipment
DEPARTMENT: Public Health & Environment
PERSON REQUESTING: Jason Chessher, Executive Director
DATE:5/27/2025
Brief description of the problem/issue:
The laboratory has some equipment that is obsolete but still on the inventory list.
1. The lab originally used a microscope for medical testing, so it was made obsolete when the medical
portion of the lab closed in 2020. Asset #05450129
2. A purifier hood was used for medical testing, so it was also made obsolete when the medical lab closed
in 2020. Asset #05450133
The chemistry lab used a Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer (GFAA) for metals
analysis, but it has been replaced with an ICP-MS. The ICP-MS can analyze most metals on the periodic
table concurrently, while the GFAA could only measure one element at a time. Asset #05450151
What options exist for the Board?
1. Retain the equipment.
2. Remove the equipment from inventory and:
a. donate the equipment to a local school or
b. sell the equipment. The price online is listed around $1000-$2000 for the microscope, around
$1700 for the purifier hood, and around $8000 for the GFAA.
Recommendation:
1 recommend removing the equipment from inventory, donating the microscope to Thompson Valley High School
and selling the purifier hood and GFAA.

Good morning Commissioner,
Since we're not meeting next Tuesday, I have five PA's to run by you beitre sending to the Board.
First is the Nurse Family Partnership grant renewal. This is the largest and most stable grant that we have. It's just
over $1.3 million and includes a 2% increase 1pr 2026.
Second is a contract Wr imaging services Wr Our Women's Wellness Connection program. I[ during a WWC visit,
our providers find reason to send a client Wr imaging, this contract provides another location in WC (br those
services. VVWC at the state levet is billed tor imaging services so that payment doesn't pass through us.
Third is our annual Flied Delivered Therapy(FDT) and Sexually Transmitted II -action (STI)renewal. This is an
existing program that combats syphilis and other sexually transmitted in(�ctions and has landing specifically am
services in the WC jail.
