Quote from Eastern Minerals and Granite State Minerals
Granite State Minerals has been awarded the State of NH salt contract with a price
of $49.50 a ton delivered. Granite State and Eastern Minerals have agreed to
supply salt to the City of Nashua at the State Bid price of $49.50 per ton, this is
the same price per ton as last year. Both Eastern Minerals and Granite State
minerals have been contracted with the City in the past years and have a good
track record of on time salt deliveries. For this reason the Superintendent
recommends we continue to do business with Granite State and Eastern Minerals,
