Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to establish a blanket purchase order for the Purchase of Polymer for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage in accordance with a Universal Term Contract.

Polymer is utilized at the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plants as a dewatering agent in the treatment of sludge for land application and incineration. The wastewater treatment plants utilize separate dewatering systems currently and those systems each require a separate type of Polymer. The Purchasing Office has an established Universal Term Contract that this product will be purchased from. The contract expires September 30, 2006.


SUPPLIER: Polydyne Inc. (34-1810283).

Fiscal Impact: $550,000.00 is needed and budgeted for this purchase. The request is for the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant only.

$1,150,000.00 was spent in 2005
$988,000.00 was spent in 2004
$883,000.00 was spent in 2003

The above prior year expenditures include both wastewater treatment plants.

This ordinance is being submitted as an emergency measure. The contract is in process and the polymer feed process is entering the critical season and will be needed immediately.
