Approximately 400 Tons of Liquid Sodium Hypochlorite are used annually. Liquid Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleach) is the primary disinfectant used in the treatment process. It is used to oxidize naturally occurring iron and manganese in City's shallow wells. It also reacts well with naturally occurring ammonia in the Raw water at all City wells. A Notice to Bidders was advertised in the Daily Herald on September 7, 2021, and sealed bids were opened on September 28, 2021. There were three (3) bids received. The low bidder was Rowell Chemical Company of Willow Springs, Illinois for a total contract price of $109,200.00 ($273.00/ton delivered). This represents a 98.67% increase from Fiscal Year 2021 unit prices. The increase is largely attributed to increase in energy costs, fuel surcharges and driver shortages. A bid tab showing the results of the bid opening is attached for additional clarification. Staff recommends that a contract be awarded to Rowell Chemical Company for procurement of Liquid Sodium Hypochlorite $ 109,200.00 for Fiscal Year 2022.
