HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 06.p Date: January 7, 2019 Item No. APPROVAL OF CONTRACTS FOR WATER TREATMENT CHEMICALS WITH DPC INDUSTRIES, INC. AND HAWKINS, INC. Proposed Action Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve contracts for water treatment chemicals with DPC Industries, Inc., and Hawkins, Inc. Overview The department solicits quotes annually for its water treatment chemicals. The chemicals in the proposal package provide for disinfection of the water and distribution system, oxidation and removal of iron, fluoridation of the water to meet state standards, and inhibit the reintroduction of ferrous metals into the water distribution system. Four vendors submitted bids for the chemicals. Bids were evaluated in terms of unit pricing and chemical suitability for the water treatment process. Each met the chemical requirements for the products bid. DPC Industries, Inc. submitted the lowest quote for chlorine at $24,700.00. Hawkins, Inc. submitted the lowest quotes for hydrofluorosilicic acid at $10,200.00 and potassium orthophosphate at $85,050.00. Aggregate chemical prices for 2019 show a small increase, less than one percent, in comparison with 2018 prices. The Request for Proposals was sent on November 16, 2018 with a deadline for responses of December 12, 2018. Staff recommends approval of the contracts. Primary Issues to Consider • What is the importance of water treatment chemicals? Use of these chemicals is required to comply with the federal Safe Drinking Water Act and state requirements. Supporting Information • A copy of the bid tabulation and contracts are attached.
