Discussion:
City of Nashua, Public Works Division
Board of Public Works Meeting Date: June 23, 2016
David A. Simmons, Superintendent
Wastewater Department
Analytical Testing Services
To approve the contract with Chemserve Environmental Analysts of Milford, NH
in the amount of $15,000. Funding will be through Department: 169 -
Wastewater; Fund; Wastewater; Account Classification: 53 Professional &
Technical Services,
Chemserve Environmental Analysts has been providing quality analytical services
to the Industrial Pretreatment Program of Nashua Wastewater for over 14 years.
The fees for these services are then back charged to the industrial users through
the wastewater billing department.
Chemserve is certified to perform these services by N.H. D.E.S. as required by
our N.P.D.E.S. Permit. They follow all E.P.A. protocol as required. They provide
all appropriate containers with the proper preservatives and sample pick up as part
of their services at no additional charge. Their rates are below market average and
have remained constant.
For these reasons, I would recommend that we continue to use Chemserve for our
analytical services for the Pretreatment Program.
