Comment | I have now loaded our company fleet into at least three different, ARB issued Fleet Worksheets. About the time I think I am working on the most recent version of the calculator, a new one appears. Several days ago I received an e-mail that stated the worksheet was once again updated. I loaded information for over 700 machines into the worksheet only to find that nothing really had changed, and that the update that was supposed to be included in the e-mail was nothing more than the worksheet I already had. I have real concerns as to the accuracy of the worksheet in its entirety. Over the weekend I loaded our fleet inventory into what Erik White advised is the most recent ARB Fleet Worksheet dated April 2007, Version 1.1, and found some typographical errors that I believe should be corrected to reflect a more professional working document. On the “READ ME FIRST” tab at the bottom of the spread sheet, I found the following misspelled words: Tolls should be Tools Seclect should be select Caculations should be Calculations itereations should be iterations Similary should be Similarly Requirments should be Requirements Conversly should be Conversely Although the misspelling of words does not constitute any immediate problem that I can see, it does raise my suspicions about the accuracy of the worksheet calculator. If misspelled words are present in this CARB issued document, especially with today’s word-processing tools such as spell check, is it possible that the calculator may have errors as well? Also, it was my belief from CARB staff that an “Hours of Operation” option was to be included in the calculator. I did not see anything in this worksheet that includes that option. Respectfully, Gary E. Rohman |
