A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE PURCHASE OF ENVIROQUIP DIFFUSERS FOR THE
WHITE SLOUGH WATER POLLUTION CONTROL FACILITY,
AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS TO COVER THIS PROJECT
WHEREAS, Lodi Municipal Code, §3.20.070, authorizes dispensing with bids for
purchases of supplies, services or equipment when it is in the best interest of the City to do
so; and
WHEREAS, flows at the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility have increased,
and additional air is needed to maintain complete nitrification in the aeration system. The
inability to nitrify will result in a violation of discharge requirements; and
WHEREAS, an evaluation of the aeration process has been performed by West Yost
& Associates and have recommended using longer diffusers; and
WHEREAS, this project would consist of replacing 1,560 24 -inch aeration diffusers
with 39 -inch diffusers to increase airflow and transfer efficiency; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends purchasing the EnviroQuip diffusers from MISCO, the
sole supplier in Northern California.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council hereby approves
the sole -source purchase of 1,560 39 -inch diffusers from MISCO of Pleasanton, California in
the amount of $74,800.05; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that $75,000.00 be appropriated from the 1999/2000
