ALEXANDER CHEMICAL CORPORATION $418,010.00
Evoqua Water Technologies LLC, the lowest responsible bidder, is proposing to perform the contract in accordance with the specifications. The estimated cost of this contract is $441,200.00, placing their bid of $408,840.00 approximately 7.3% below the engineer’s estimate.

The contractor shall commence delivery beginning five (5) days after the issuance of the purchase order and terminate twenty-four (24) months thereafter, or upon expenditure of available funds, whichever occurs sooner.
