gone out so this is not included in the original bid. This is for extra smoke detectors needed within the duct
work, two extra. They have to be addressable so each smoke detector has to be routed back to the fire alarm
panel at the main entrance. Because of the distance where the smoke detectors are located, the price is
elevated. But this is to meet code.

ON THE QUESTION
Mr. Boucher
This is a company that we want to have on board. They already have their equipment installed in all of our
combined sewer overflow locations. What this company does, is they take all the data that is collected each
month, they compile it into a report that we have to submit to the regulatory agencies. We would like to
continue with their service, we have been happy with it, for another year. This is a one year contract.
Mayor Donchess
Those reports to the EPA and DES are mandatory.
Mr. Boucher
Correct.

ON THE QUESTION
Mr. Boucher
So this is the for the purpose of piping and also for a company to come in and install the piping in one of three
of our clarifiers. So the purchase is for the piping for 3 clarifiers, but this company will install it one, show us
how it is installed and then staff will install it in the other two. We have equipment in these clarifiers that
currently doesn’t work so this is some newer technology that will work in order to remove sludge from the
bottom of the tanks and deliver it to another location at our facility.
