DISCUSSION: The Water Department approached the Purchasing Division to procure agreements for chemical odor control services. The services are needed to control the odor and reduce or eliminate the corrosion concerns within the wastewater collection system. In order to procure these services, staff issued request for proposals (RFP) No. 21-0051. The RFP consisted of detailed specifications regarding the type of chemicals, delivery and reporting. The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on March 3, 2021, March 10, 2021, March 17, 2021 and March 24, 2021. The City received six proposals. Proposals were evaluated on Best Value criteria including the price, qualifications, methodology, and past performance. Staff from the Water and Transportation Public Works Department evaluated the proposals submitted and recommend awarding Pencco, Inc., NRP Group, Inc., and US Peroxide LLC dba USP Technologies with five one-year options to renew. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of these services will be purchased. Funds will be distibuted as follows based on the chemical being provided: Vendor Chemical Award Amount NRP Group Biocatalyst Liquid $210,253.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Chloride 35-42% $494,500.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Chloride 35-42% (plant) $494,500.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Chloride (alternative) $494,500.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Sulfate 60% $505,450.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Sulfate 60% (plant) $505,450.00 Pencco Liquid Ferric Sulfate (alternative) $505,450.00 US Peroxide Hydrogen Peroxide 50% $119,475.00 Pencco Liquid Ferrous Chloride 18-32% $500,000.00 US Peroxide Optical $661,500.00 OFFICE OF BUSINESS DIVERSITY (OBD): A waiver of the goal for M/WBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing Division and approved by the OBD, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible. ADMNISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER: An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated. AGREEMENT TERMS: Upon City Council approval, this agreement shall begin upon execution and expire one year from that date. RENEWAL TERMS: This agreement may be renewed for five (5) additional one-year renewal periods. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term. FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously appropriated, in the Water & Sewer Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the agreements. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Water Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.

All other terms and conditions of our sales contract remain unchanged. This price increase is driven by increased demand in oil and gas, continued realized freight inflation, and lower supply from planned maintenance outages with multiple HCI producers. Your account manager will contact you to discuss the implementation of this price increase on your purchases from Chemtrade. Thank you for your continued business. Sincerely, William Kopfman Business Director, Chlorine & HCI CHEMTRADE 155 Gordon Baker Road, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario M2H 3N5 T 416.496.5856 F 416.496.9414 Toll Free 1.866.887.8805 Web Site: www.chemtradelogistics.com CONFIDENTIAL Reagent Chemical & Research, Inc. 115 Highway 202, Ringoes, NJ 08551 OFFICE: (770) 971-1896 August 25, 2023 Mr. Brian Sullivan Pencco Dear Mr. Sullivan, Effective August 25, 2023 or as contract terms and conditions allow, Reagent Chemical is increasing the price for all grades of Hydrochloric Acid by $35.00 per net ton. This increase is due to substantial supply reductions continuing from isocyanate production. Additionally, a decrease in fluorocarbon produced HC1 is now occurring due to seasonal outages and a forecasted dropped in some productions due to product phaseouts which we expect to continue into 2024. Demand remains good and with reduced supply we expect inventories to remain low. We will continue to be on 100% order control. Your Reagent Sales Manager will be contacting you to explain the factors which are impacting the HC1 market, as well as answer any questions you might have on how this announcement will affect your account. Thank you for your business and continued support of Reagent Chemical and our products. Best Regards, Steve Khan Vice President, Chemical Sales
