I <br />t- <br />January 20, 1970 <br />TO: Members of the Common Council <br />RE: Chemicals - February 7, 1970 to February 7, 1971 <br />FROM: John L. Hunter, Director of Utilities <br />The Notice to Bidders appeared in the Tri- County News and South Bend <br />Tribune on December 12 and 19, 1969. It requested bids for a year's <br />supply of chemicals. The bids were opened on January 5, 1970 by the <br />Board of Water Commissioners and referred to our office for recommenda- <br />tion. <br />Our recommendations are to award the bid to Inland Chemical Corporation <br />for all chemicals except the 150 lb. cylinders of liquid chlorine. <br />These will be awarded to Ashland Chemical Company since Inland Chemical <br />Corporation made an honest mistake in calculating their bid on this <br />particular item and requested us to exclude this item from their bid. <br />The hydrofluosilicic acid (fluoride) is awarded to Inland Chemical <br />Corporation since their bid includes delivery to the various pumping <br />stations. Ashland Chemical Company also submitted a bid, but it does <br />not include transportation from Chicago, Illinois to our pumping <br />
