WHEREAS, the City of Lodi currently has six wells with treatment systems that use GAC
to remove DBCP from the water wells; and
WHEREAS, Well 4R's treatment system went off line in October 1999 due to the GAC
no longer able to remove DBCP to the required 0.2 parts -per -billion level; and
WHEREAS, three other treatment systems are anticipated to require GAC replacement
during the 1999/2001 budget period; and
WHEREAS, the City of Fresno solicited bids for the purchase and regeneration of GAC
used in DBCP treatment systems and has received prices commensurate with its volume of
GAC purchases; and
WHEREAS, USFilter (formerly Northwestern Carbon) had the lowest bid for the City of
Fresno on the items Lodi is requiring, and Northwestern Carbon has furnished the City of Lodi
with GAC in the past and constructed the GAC vessels at Well 4R; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to
execute the necessary agreements to purchase/regenerate GAC from USFilter under the
applicable terms of the City of Fresno's contract and to execute similar agreements with USFilter

interest of the City for other wells requiring GAC replacement through the end of the 1999/2001
budget period.
