Cutler, Director of Public Works and Utilities EQUIPMENT PURCHASE DEWATERING DUMPSTER BOX AND LID, PURCHASE CONTRACT No. 06-29 Summary: Flo-Trend Systems, Inc. has submitted the lowest bid to supply the Wastewater Treatment Division a 25 yard dewatering container. This unit is being procured in order to meet regulatory restrictions required to dispose of screenings and grit at the new Transfer Station. Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager to sign a contract and purchase order for a 25 yard dewatering container from Flo- Trend Systems, Inc. Background/Analysis: Due to the closing of the Port Angeles Landfill it is necessary to send the WWTP screenings and grit to the new transfer station starting late 2006. Currently the WWTP does not sufficiently dewater this material so that it can pass the regulatory requirement of a paint filter test prior to transport and disposal (WAC 173-351-200). This test requires all free water to be removed. Staff advertised for this purchase contract and received bids on July 10, 2006. Two suppliers submitted written bids with Flo- Trend providing the lowest price. Staff did make inquiries to other Flo- Trend container users and found that they were pleased with the capability to dewater and the durability of the product. Sufficient funds are available from the Machinery and Equipment line item (6410) that is contained in the 2006 Wastewater budget. This item was listed in the 2006 budget for $35,200. The funding shortfall will corne from savings realized in other procurements. Bids are summarized below. Summary of Bids Including Tax FIRM CITY QUOTE Flo- Trend Systems, Inc.
