Survey and Record Collection Sample Clauses

Survey and Record Collection. A total of 15 out of 16 sites selected were surveyed between June and July of 2010, and records were requested at each one. The 16th plant was visited, but the plant was closed and no one was present to be surveyed. The survey was piloted at the first three sites, after which the order of questions changed, some questions were removed, and additional questions were added. However, because the majority of questions did not change, data from the first three sites were used for analysis, although there are some missing data. All surveys were conducted with operators of the plants, in person. In two cases, the operator interviewed was not the lead operator, but a secondary operator in the plant. In three cases, an additional person was present, who was either another operator or a member of the water committee for the plant. The surveys were conducted at each operator’s site, typically outside in a quiet, private area. All surveys were conducted mid-morning to early afternoon, which was typically after the initial morning cleaning and filling of bottles, on a Monday through Saturday. They each took approximately 30- 60 minutes to complete. With the permission of the operators, all surveys were recorded with a digital audio recorder. They were administered orally in Spanish, with the assistance of a field assistant, and responses and notes were recorded electronically during the survey. The responses were recorded into an Excel spreadsheet that automatically copied them into the tool that was being used to determine a sustainability score for each site. Records kept by the plants were not standardized across plants. No two plants kept records in the same way. Those that did have records available for the researcher typically kept day-by-day records. In some cases, these were available for the entire past year, as requested, and in others they were available only for the previous few days, weeks, or months. These data included some or all of the following desired data: number of bottles filled, number of bottles sold, price of each bottle sold, number of bottles donated, and costs. In some cases, the operator informed the researcher that the treasurer of the water committee kept more records, but they were not available. Also, most sites in Campeche said they reported their records to the regional coordinator in Campeche, so the researcher met with him after concluding her final visit. He provided the records he had available, which filled in some of the gaps. H...
