CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SOLENIS, LLC, OF WILMINGTON,
DELAWARE, FOR PURCHASE OF DEWATERING POLYMER FOR

WHEREAS, the basic process of wastewater treatment separates the solids from the
liquid waste stream, then treats those components to State standards by dewatering the solids
component of wastewater, using mechanical and chemical methods in order to be manageable

each 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, Council approved the Professional Services Agreement with Solenis, LLC,
on March 21, 2018; and
