The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation has awarded a non-information technology goods contract to Lightning Industrial Inc. under contract number 4500749354, valued at $42,931.94. The contract was awarded on February 9, 2026, with an identical completion date, indicating a delivery-focused procurement. This contract represents a one-time purchase of water treatment and conditioning supplies necessary for departmental operations.

The contract deliverables consist of three line items totaling 522 units of chemical products: 512 units of 40-pound bags of Morton Clean Softener Pellets at $10.64 per unit, and 10 units of 55-gallon drums of phosphate at $2,099.00 per unit. These materials are standard supplies used in water softening and treatment applications typical of correctional facility operations. The compressed award and completion timeline of a single day suggests this represents either an emergency procurement or a final delivery against a standing agreement.
