State's 144 School Systems
Transporting 744,000 Kids
The 144 school systems in North
Carolina is providing transporta
tion to and from school for over
744,000 youngsters again this fall.
The largest fleet of school buses
(11,910) in the county will travel
over half a million miles every day
but the pressure is going to be on
local units to conserve as much as
possible in the face of a probable
shortage of funds to purchase the
necessary gasoline.
The State Board of Education
was told recently that in 1978-79,
the school bus system in the state
consumed more than 18 million
gallons of gasoline. Transporta
tion Division Director William
Tillett was told to expect a 20
percent reduction in gasoline allo
cations for the 1979-80 school year.
The allocation for the coming
school year, with the 20 percent
reduction, is 14.480.000 Ballons.
But, as TiUett points out, the
reduction isn't the real problem.
On July 1, 1978, the state, which
supplies all the gasoline and opera
ting funds for the 144 school units,
was paying just over 42 cents per
gallon. On August 1, 1979 the cost
of a gallon of gasoline was almost
65 cents per gallon, a 50 percent
increase. However, by July 1,1980,
the Division speculates the cost of
gasoline will have been hiked to 92
cents per gallon. What all that
means is that there isn't enough
money in the budget to purchase
the gasoline, even with a 20 percent
reduction in consumption. The
state can't contract for the entire
amount at the same time because
there are no storage areas large
enough. Gasoline is purchased
almost weekly and the cost is
whatever the market allows at that
time.
The Transportation Division
budget is over *47,680.00 for the
year 1979-80 school year. Seventy
percent of that is for mechanics and
drivers. The'rest is for operating
and servicing the school buses and
service vehicles The budget item
for gasoline totals $8,469,961.00,
about the same as last year. If the
state received the same 18 million
gallons it received a year ago, it
would need $6 50 million more to
pay for it. With the 20 percent
reduction, it still is $3.6 million
short. What it means is that late
next winter or early next spring,
the State Board will have to find
enough money to purchase the
gasoline necessary to operate the
school buses through the end of the
fiscal year.
ίο neip reduce me amount οι
need, The Board adopted conser
vation rules and regulations that
local units are going to be required
to follow. The regulations require
careful scrutiny in making out bus
routes and the assignment of pu
pils; eliminating duplicated
routes; reducing tne number of
stops by setting a minimum of
two-tenths of a mile between stops;
reducing idling time at bus stops
by setting a maximum time to wait
for passengers; eliminating warm
up time, filling gasoline tanks
partially instead of full to cut down
on thefts; and sufficient mainten
ance to insure maximum gasoline
economy.
One state official says that begin
ning the school year with the
knowledge there isn't enough mo
ney to cover gasoline costs will aid
conservation but reducing costs by
$3.5 million with the ever increas
ing cost of gasoline may be out of
the question.
