Description

Vendors are advised the Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) intends to direct award an agreement to Kemira Water Solutions Canada Inc. (Kemira) to supply ferrous chloride to safely precipitate hydrogen sulfide in wastewater for odour control and corrosion reduction. The term of the agreement for ferrous chloride supply is from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. The estimated value is over $75,000 including transport. The RDN wishes to direct award for the following reasons: • To the best of the RDN’s knowledge, Kemira is the only supplier of ferrous chloride in British Columbia. • Alternative chemicals that function in a similar manner to ferrous chloride and safely precipitate dissolved hydrogen sulfide in wastewater are more expensive. These chemicals could include ferric chloride and ferric sulphate. Vendors wishing to challenge the RDN’s intention to direct award a contract to Kemira must submit their objection, in writing, via email to the following person on, or before 3:00 p.m. PST on January 22, 2024. Adrian Limpus, Engineering Technologist- Wastewater Services Regional District of Nanaimo
