Baird, County Administrator <br />From: Vincent Burke, P.E., Director of Utility Services <br />Through Jennifer Hyde, Purchasing Manager <br />Prepared By: Terry Southard, Operations Manager, Utility Services ( G -c61-114)-3 <br />Subject: Request for purchase of Sodium Hypochlorite tanks for the Central & West <br />Regional Wastewater Facilities. <br />BACKGROUND/ ANALYSIS: <br />In 2005 as part of the Central Regional Wastewater plant expansion, three (3)-6,500 gallon HDLPE <br />Snyder Captor Containment Systems (tanks) were installed for sodium hypochlorite storage. Due <br />to the ongoing filling and draining of the tanks for normal operations, these tanks expand & <br />contract, are exposed to the elements, and are nearing the end of their useful service life. The <br />life span of these tanks average five (5) to seven (7) years. <br />In the FY 14-15 budget $100,000 was approved for storage tank replacement. Staff has received <br />three quotes for additional Snyder tanks for the Central Wastewater Treatment Facility. Three <br />companies submitted quotes, and Ryan Herco Flow Solutions was the lowest quote. <br />1. Ryan Herco Flow Solutions <br />2. Harrington Industrial Plastics LLC <br />3. Plastic Water Tanks Inc. <br />$ 63,100.94 <br />$ 67,162.17 <br />$ 68,739.77 <br />Since pricing was so competitive staff requested three quotes for three (3) 5,500 gallon VST <br />HDLPE tanks located at the West Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility as well. <br />1. Ryan Herco Flow Solutions <br />2. TND Services Inc. <br />3. Ferguson <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />$ 17,423.38 <br />$ 18,400.00 <br />$ 20,000.00 <br />The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the Board of County <br />Commissioners waive the requirement for bids and authorize the Purchasing Department to issue <br />a Purchase Order to Ryan Herco Flow Solutions for $80,524.32 for the purchase of three 6,500 <br />gallon Snyder Captor tanks and three Snyder 5,500 gallon VST HDLPE tanks. <br />F:\Utilities\UTILITY - EMPLOYEE FOLDERS\Terry Southard\Agendas\Agenda-Chlorine Tanks Central Regional Wastewater Plant Page 1 of 2 <br />March 2015 Cc Jh V4 Cmc.Doc <br />111 <br />
