A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SOLENIS, LLC, OF
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE, FOR PURCHASE OF BIOSOLIDS
DEWATERING POLYMER
WHEREAS, the basic process of wastewater treatment is to separate the solids from the
liquid waste stream, then treat those components to State standards by dewatering the solids
component of the wastewater using mechanical and chemical methods in order to be
manageable for disposal; and
WHEREAS, since wastewater composition and the process equipment are unique to
each treatment facility, solids dewatering performance varies with different polymers and each
vendor manufactures polymer using a proprietary chemical formula, making it common practice
for agencies to use a performance-based bid process, including full-scale product testing to
verify polymer dosage performance and cost for each product; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute a three-year
Professional Services Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for purchase of
biosolids dewatering polymer, in the amount of $560,736.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby
authorize the City Manager to execute a three-year Professional Services Agreement with
Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for purchase of biosolids dewatering polymer, in the
amount of $560,736.
