One second.

To the mayoral directive, DSNY must submit monthly overtime reports and justify any variances from its reduction plan.
0:35:16
What reductions have been achieved so far and what challenges remain in meeting these targets?
Joseph Antonelli
0:35:26
Sure.
0:35:27
So we have monthly calls with OMB to go through the targets and to go through what overtime we spent for the month.

What we actually go through is we do day by day recounting of how many basically how many sanitation workers we had to schedule on overtime for that day and walk through exactly what the events were on each day.
0:35:51
You know, over the past few months it's largely been either directly snow or the days after a snow event where we're catching up on collection or it's been for holidays and catching up on collection after the holidays.
0:36:06
But those have been the the drivers and we go through a day by day analysis with OMB.
