All 22 papers presented at the 1982 meeting of the Association of Physical Plant Administrators are contained in these proceedings. The papers are organized under four topical areas: resource management, energy management, maintenance programs, and physical plant management. Resource management area papers offer advice on establishing a day cleaning program, disciplinary counseling, microcomputers in physical plant operations, what to do when receiving a work promotion, and the fiscal implications of collective bargaining in higher education. Energy management papers concern outside air units, retrofit lighting, and cogeneration. Papers grouped under maintenance programs deal with managing a maintenance manpower crisis, preventive maintenance, testing programs for hazardous chemical handlers, and asbestos assessment and control. Physical plant management papers concern quality control, public relations, vehicle fleet management, concentrated preventive maintenance programs, involvement in construction projects, and a computerized job cost control and billing system. Four general session papers discuss different aspects of managing the physical plant department. At the end of the publication, exhibitors are listed alphabetically by company name. A list of the convention registrants also includes their places of employment. (MLF)
