It is the intent of the Emerald Coast Utilities Authority to enter into a contract with a qualified vendor for the supply and/or delivery of fifty (50) pound bags of hydrated lime. The contract will consist of delivery of the bagged hydrated lime in a covered trailer to Building 997B, Ellyson Industrial Park, Pensacola, Florida 32514. The covered trailer can be detached and left with lime inside or unloaded by ECUA personnel with prior delivery notification (2 hours).
Deliveries must be received between 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM Monday through Friday unless prior arrangements were made. Deliveries may fluctuate from three (3) to ten (10) loads per month. We average between 5 and 6 truckloads a month.
The chemical hydrated lime shall meet American Water Works Association (AWWA) Specifications B202-13.
Each bidder shall furnish the full trade name of the product offered, the name of the manufacturer, a certified chemical and sieve analysis on each delivery of lime, and a certified statement of compliance with American Water Works Association (AWWA) Specifications B202-13.
Since the available calcium oxide quoted in the certified analysis must be a minimum of 62%, this will be used in the evaluation of bids received and there shall be a penalty of 2% of the contract price for each consignment for each full 1% by which the available calcium oxide shall be found to be less than shown in the certified analysis. The testing method described in American Water Works Association (AWWA) specification B202-13, section 4.2 shall be used. There shall be no bonus applied for higher available calcium oxide content.
There shall be a minimum of 62% available calcium oxide content each shipment batch below which any consignment shall be rejected.
