AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 1 to
Professional Services Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for
Purchase of Biosolids Dewatering Polymer at White Slough Water Pollution
Control Facility ($168,000)
MEETING DATE: April 21, 2021
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to execute Amendment
No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of
Wilmington, Delaware, for purchase of biosolids dewatering
polymer at White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, in the amount of $168,000.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The basic process of wastewater treatment is to separate the solids
from the liquid waste stream, and then treat those components to
State standards. The solids component of the wastewater must be
dewatered, using mechanical and chemical methods, in order to be manageable for disposal. Adding
polymer to wastewater creates a reaction that assists in separating solids from water.
On March 21, 2018, Council authorized the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement
with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for purchase of biosolids dewatering polymer at White
Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, in the amount of $560,763, for the three-year term. Amendment
No. 1, if approved, will add $168,000, for a total agreement amount of $728,736; and extend the term of
the agreement by one-year, through March 30, 2022.
Staff recommends authorizing City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services
Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for purchase of biosolids dewatering polymer at
White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, in the amount of $168,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: Utilizing a polymer that maximizes system performance will minimize
dewatering operating costs. This project will not impact the General Fund.

can be fed from five (5) gallon. containers that are weighed on a digital
scale and the weight recorded to calculate the actual polymer dosage.
2. Immediately before the trial begins, the totalizer readings and the tank
level for the sludge to be dewatered will be recorded.
3. Vendor is allowed one (1) hour to stabilize performance before the trial
begins. The eight hr trial will include the one hour set-up time. The trial
sludge feed rate will be a minimum of 50 or more per minute of digested
sludge from the sludge lagoon. The polymer will be adjusted accordingly
to produce the best overall perfm3rriance at the above sludge feed rate.
CITY of LOCI personnel will witness and document all necessary
adjustments.
4_ Thirty minutes after the trial starts, three (3) samples will be taken by
City Operators.
1. Feed for solids content
2. Cake for solids content
3. Filtrate for solids content
5. Thereafter, the City will collect three (3) sets of samples every thirty (30)
minutes, on feed, cake, and filtrate, for the remainder of the trial.
Vendors must make every effort to ensure that testing stays within their
scheduled session. If the Vendor is unable to complete the testing within
their scheduled session, the City may, at their discretion, either schedule
another test session or disallow any further testing of the Bidder's product.
Should some unforeseen situation occur that is the responsibility of the
City, i.e., City owned equipment failure, the City will allow the Vendor to
re -schedule a session.
6 After the trial, readings for sludge and tank level for polymer will be
annotated by the City.

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.
Dated: March 21, 2018
I hereby certify that Resolution No. 2018-41 was passed and adopted by the City
Council of the City of Lodi in a regular meeting held March 21, 2018, by the following vote:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS — Chandler, Johnson, Kuehne, and Mayor Nakanishi

Re: Professional Services Agreement
Dear Ms. Wiman,
We would like to request a price increase for our polymer which we supply to the City of Lodi under the
agreement listed above. Our records show that our current agreement will expire on March 31, 2021.
Solenis has experienced hyper -inflation with regard to our raw material costs and we have included
multiple indices that support our request. We have not changed our price since 2019.
Plastics Material & Resins Mar 2019 244.0 Feb 2021 272.5 11 % inflation
Petro Chemical Mfg: Mar 2019 130.6 Feb 2021 138.7 6% inflation
General Freight Trucking Mar 2019 316.6 Feb 2021 331.4 4.5 % inflation
Our current price is: $ 1.48 / Ib. We are requesting a price increase of 3% to: $1.52 effective April 1,
2021.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
Christopher Kollman

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-104
A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE
CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SOLENIS, LLC, OF WILMINGTON,
DELAWARE, FOR PURCHASE OF DEWATERING POLYMER FOR
WHITE SLOUGH WATER POLLUTION CONTROL FACILITY
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
for disposal; and
WHEREAS, since wastewater composition and the process equipment are unique to
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
WHEREAS, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment
No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for
purchase of dewatering polymer, in the amount of $168,000, for a total not -to -exceed amount of
$728,736.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby
authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services
Agreement with Solenis, LLC, of Wilmington, Delaware, for the purchase of dewatering polymer
for White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, extending the term to March 30, 2022, and
adding $168,000, for a total not -to -exceed agreement amount of $728,736; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, pursuant to Section 6.3q of the City Council Protocol
Manual (Res. No. 2019-223), the City Attorney is hereby authorized to make minor revisions to
the above -referenced document(s) that do not alter the compensation or term, and to make
