Commissioner Bird asked what type of advertising we used to <br />solicit bid proposals on this, and Administrator Chandler advised <br />that we went through the Consultant's Competitive Negotiations <br />Act, and we advertised in papers and sent out requests for <br />proposals to companies who had expressed an interest in the past <br />and were on file.
