     Dr. William H. Rumsey, Director
     Department of Recreation
     District of Columbia Government
     Washington, D.C. 20010

     Dear Dr. Rumsey:

          We have completed our survey of the Department of Recreation. The
     objective of the survey was to gather information on the operations of
     the Department in order to establish a data base for future reviews.

          We interviewed all division directors, collected and reviewed forms
     and documents used in planning, program operations and day-to-day
     administration. We also visited several facilities, including the North
     Branch of the maintenance division-and the Department's warehouse and
     transportation center. 'We are suspending further work in the Department
     of Recreation because staff has to be diverted to cher priority assign-
     ments.

          Because of the broad and general nature of the survey, we do not
     have sufficient information to reach any firm conclusions concerning the
     Department's operations and activities.

          Early in the survey we interviewed the maintenance director and
     based on our interviews and his responses, we devoted the greater portion
     of our time reviewing the maintenance division'soperations. Our work
     in this division indicated a potential problem that we are bringing to
     your attention.

         The maintenance division does not have a comprehensive master
    maintenance plan.

         The maintenance director stated there is a need for a Master Plan,
    but does not have enough staff available to develop and maintain such a
    plan.  He also stated that a preventive maintenance program is needed to
    enable his division to plan for and meet maintenance needs before they
    reach crisis proportions and become major repairs.
