Tote Tank Water Guard, Inc $3.30/ gal. All above are the lowest bids. Aqua Mag is current corrosion inhibitor and bid was conducted by Informal Bid Process. North Carolina AquaMag suppliers were solicited for bids and Amerochem was lowest at $0.595/ wet pound. The Lime Slurry supplier is to remain the same as last year (Polytec Inc.) through a contract extension being handled by the Legal Department. The Water and Wastewater Department are exercising last year's bid package option due to the pumping equipment and material handling containers logistics problems and chemical feed disruptions that would be encountered by switchover to new vendor. Polytec has agreed to hold the price the same as last year at $0.055/ wet lb.

The closure of both the Swift and Erwin facilities has eliminated the need for Caustic, Bleach and Sodium Bisulfite for the coming fiscal year. This leaves only Calcium Nitrate used for collection system odor control. I have thoroughly reviewed each bid and am pleased to recommend that we award as follows. Chemical Vendor Priec/Callon Calcium Nitrate Cape Fear Water Solutions $ 1.89 Explanation of Awards — 1) In an effort to rein in costs, we dropped the service aspect of the bid solicitation and we be performing all system testing in house. This has allowed for a savings of roughly 33% compared to the winning bid from fiscal 2012 -2013. Respectfully, Kenneth W.
