Authorization
REQUEST: Utility Department Requesting Approval to piggyback off of The City of
Orlando SICOP Bid number BI06-2139 for the purchase of gas chlorine.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Board item is to request approval to piggyback off of The City of
Orlando's contract B106-2139 with DPC Enterprises, L.P., for the purchase of
chlorine gas for the water disinfection at water treatment plant 1.
CONSIDERATIONS:
The City of Orlando entered into a contract with DPC Enterprises, LP to supply all of
their chlorine gas needs. This contract expires on January 31, 2007 but will likely be
extended for another year. The City of Winter Springs Utility Department chose to piggy
backed of their Shared Interest Cooperative Purchasing (SICOP) bid for the cost savings.
The current cost is $467.80 per one ton cylinder. Gas chlorine is still used at WTP 1 due to
the higher hydrogen sulfide concentrations in the raw water wells for this plant.
FUNDING:
Funds are budgeted in the Utility Department line code 3600-55233. Approximately
$25,000 per year is spent on gas chlorine.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that authorization be granted to piggyback off of The City of
Orlando Florida's contract with DPC Enterprises, LP for the purchase of Gas Chlorine.
