Vendor Contract # Contract Compliance #
Shelly Materials, Inc. (Crushed Limestone and Gravel Aggregates) FL003978 31-1574851
Contract Compliance Exp. Date
Shelly Materials, Inc. January 29, 2012
FISCAL IMPACT: The Division of Power and Water has allocated $148,500.00 for Gravel in the 2010 Budget.
$139,613.70 was expended in 2009.
$174,605.72 was expended in 2008.
Emergency Action is necessary so that a purchase order can be issued as soon as possible. The Division has experienced an inordinate amount of water line breaks in the second half of 2010. Currently the Division is experiencing an average of 80-90 leaks per day, which has depleted the current stockpile of crushed limestone and gravel aggregates. This material is used on a daily basis to repair these excavation sites. We anticipate that the rate of water line repairs will continue to remain high during the winter season. Without this emergency action, it is estimated that new funding could not be established until February 25, 2011.
