All plumbing fixtures for sinks and showers have automated controls to regulate the <br />length of time that water is allowed to Rowan the various cellblocks. Originally, the automated <br />system was a spring-loaded mechanism -that tended to last about six weeks before it needed <br />adjustment or replacement. It was found that, by going to an electronic control, the down time, <br />since the first units were installed (approximately three years ago), has been non-existent. The <br />system also gives the guards controls over time and water usage for inmates. <br />Bid Opening Date: <br />Advertising Dates: <br />Specifications Mailed to: <br />Replies: <br />AUGUST 24, 1999 <br />August 11, 1999 at 2:00 P.M. <br />July 28, & August 4, 1999 <br />Eight (8) Vendors <br />Two (2) Vendors <br />-16- <br />I <br />
