ACTION REQUEST
Commission approval for Municipal Technologies to install Ammonia Monochloramine Analyzers at Goddard and Orchid elevated storage tanks in the amount of $112,940.00 utilizing Contract No. RFP 2025-479.
BACKGROUND (Brief Summary)
Installation of this system will provide these key improvements:
• Continuous Monitoring: We are upgrading from manual grab samples to a fully automated system that monitors water quality 24/7.
• SCADA Integration: The units will link directly to our SCADA system, providing real-time data and instant notifications if chlorine residuals begin to drop.
• Water Conservation: By receiving early warnings, we can make precise operational adjustments. This significantly reduces the need for manual flushing to clear low-residual water.
• Seasonal Reliability: This system is critical during the summer months when high temperatures accelerate chlorine demand, ensuring we maintain consistent water quality standards year-round.
