Description

The Vendor will be required to blend stove oil with dye concentrate, each provided to the Vendor by the Ministry, in order to manufacture a red dye mixture known as D390, and then deliver it when needed to locations throughout Ontario and to Winnipeg, Manitoba, and to other locations, if specified by the Ministry (“Delivery Points”).

The Vendor could deliver the D390 itself, or could enter into a contract, on the same terms and conditions as the terms of the Agreement between the Vendor and the Ministry, for the delivery of D390.

On occasion, the Ministry will require D390 in small quantities provided in one (1) litre clear containers filled to only 900 millilitres (“1 Litre Containers”). The Vendor will provide and deliver the 1 Litre Containers upon request by the Ministry.

Objective for Ministry:

D390 is added to fuel to make it coloured fuel and to distinguish it as being tax-exempt. Coloured fuel may not be used in a licensed vehicle; its use is restricted to situations where the fuel is not taxable.

Ministry inspectors conduct roadside tests on licensed motor vehicles to verify that only clear fuel is in the fuel tank of that motor vehicle. Where coloured fuel is found in the fuel tank, the operator of the motor vehicle may be liable to penalties and fines under the Fuel Tax Act.
Scope of Work
The Vendor will:

- blend the dye concentrate with Number 1 grade fuel oil (stove oil) to manufacture a red dye mixture known as D390;
- provide safe and secure storage for the dye concentrate and the D390 and;
- distribute D390 in tank trucks or trailers or in 205-litre drums (in different capacities) on returnable pallets to Delivery Points.
