Agenda Item
Resolution - Water Utilities:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Contract 16920, with Evoqua Water Technologies, LLC, for Sodium Chlorite, for the North Water Treatment Plant and the South Water Treatment Plant.
Item Summary
In 2017, the City awarded Contract 13423 to Evoqua Water Technologies, for an on-site chlorine dioxide treatment to replace the existing carbon loop system. This contract included chlorine dioxide generation equipment used at both the North Water Treatment Plant (NWTP) and South Water Treatment Plant (SWTP), as well as non-proprietary raw chemicals used to generate chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide is used to treat Lubbock's drinking water.
Contract 16920 establishes annual pricing for sodium chlorite and transportation services used at the NWTP and the SWTP. This is a unit price contract. The 1st year, the cost for the chemical will be $0.869 per pound. Estimated annual usage is 925,970 pounds of sodium chlorite for a total annual expenditure of $804,668. For the 2nd and 3rd years of the contract, the unit price increase will be capped at 6% each year. A fuel surcharge for truck transportation services will be calculated using the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS) or the Producer Price Index (PPI) daily rack average on the day of delivery. This amount will be added to the invoice. The total amount of the award is estimated based on expected quantities, and actual expenditures may be more or less depending on actual need.
Staff recommends this purchase order contract be awarded to Evoqua Water Technologies of Sarasota, Florida, as a sole source contract.
Fiscal Impact
Funding is available in the FY 2022-23 Water/Wastewater Operating Budget for this purpose.
