Explanation
BACKGROUND: The Purchasing Office has established Universal Term Contract FL001091, for powdered activated carbon, with Envirotrol Inc. This contract will expire March 31, 2006. The Division of Water has already encumbered $1,083,240.00 against this contract and would like to establish an additional Blanket Purchase Order, for the Dublin Road Water Plant. Additional funds are needed because the dibvision was unsure as to how much would be needed at the time legislation was initiated in March.
