This is a chemical specification attachment for a corrosion inhibitor procurement by Volusia County Water Resources & Utilities (WRU) in Florida. The document outlines detailed technical requirements for a corrosion inhibitor chemical product designated as 26-B-60LS, intended to control copper and lead concentrations in potable water systems. The chemical will be supplied to three water system operations: Southwest Interconnect (comprising four separate Water Treatment Plants), Spruce Creek Fly-In WTP, and Halifax Plantation WTP. The specification requires vendors to provide comprehensive product information including trade name, specific gravity, weight per gallon, color, odor, and pH values, along with maximum allowable dosage in parts per million for potable water service.

Vendors must demonstrate that their proposed corrosion inhibitor product meets regulatory approval requirements from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Florida Department of Environmental Protection for potable water use. Additional technical specifications include shelf life data, methods for controlling biological growth during manufacturing and storage, total phosphate concentration expressed as both percentage by weight and pounds per product unit, and the ratio of polyphosphate to orthophosphate in the formulation. The product must be free of foreign materials with turbidity less than 10 NTU. Vendors are required to submit proposed dosage rates specific to each interconnect location and must provide on-site field water testing services with knowledgeable expert advice regarding lead and copper testing and monitoring.
