STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This award supports the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous by ensuring the reliability and quality of the City’s water and wastewater treatment and collection systems.
REPORT:
Both cooperative purchase agreements were competitively bid and awarded by the City of Tucson and by the City of Chandler.
The chemicals used are essential for disinfection, pH control, coagulation, and equipment maintenance, ensuring compliance with Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. These chemicals play a vital role in safeguarding public health by providing safe drinking water, protecting public health, and maintaining environmental quality.
Purchasing these water and wastewater treatment chemicals ensures the City complies with the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and required state health-based standards and treatment techniques that prevent waterborne illnesses and maintain a disinfected distribution system. Non-compliance can result in costly penalties for environmental violations. These chemicals protect public health, prevent expensive enforcement actions, and maintain good standing with ADEQ and EPA.
