REQUEST:
Utility Department Requesting Approval to piggyback off of the Palm Beach County
contract with Allied Universal Corporation for the purchase of Sodium Hypochlorite (liquid
chlorine).
SYNOPSIS:
The purpose of this Board item is to request approval to piggyback off of the Palm
Beach County contract with Allied Universal Corporation of Miami for the purchase of
sodium hypochlorite for water and reclaimed water disinfection purposes at a cost of $0.64
per gallon.
CONSIDERATIONS:
Sodium hypochlorite (liquid chlorine or bleach) is needed at the water and wastewater
plants for disinfection of potable and reclaimed water, respectively. The City uses
approximately 200,000 gallons per year of sodium hypochlorite at these facilities. Gas
chlorine is no longer used at any of the water or wastewater plants.
The City Commission previously authorized a piggyback purchase of liquid chlorine on
September 23, 2013 with a different vendor at a cost of $0.74 per gallon. Palm Beach
County Bid #11- 071 /SWC was awarded to Allied Universal Corporation for the purchase of
sodium hypochlorite at a cost of $0.64 per gallon (liquid chlorine) through August
2016. The quality of the chlorine and reliability of delivery will be as good or better than
the existing source.
