Motion to approve an agreement with Prolime Corporation for wet lime sludge hauling in a not-to-exceed amount of $310,000 per year using Lee County contract ITB-160478/AB through February 28, 2021, subject to annual renewals by Lee County.

Lee County approved the award for sludge hauling with Prolime Corporation (ITB-160478/AB) on March 1, 2017. The City is proposing to use the Lee County agreement for the hauling of wet lime sludge (slurry) from the lime sludge reactor unit located at the City’s water treatment plant at 434 South Swinton Avenue to sites approved by Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP).
